Tree lopping - Andrews Tree Lopping ServiceBundaberg, QLD, Australia
I moved to Bundaberg in 2007 and there i found work with a tree lopping company, I learned how to safely cut down trees by cutting in a special way so it did'nt fall on anything or anyone, and then cut it into smaller peices to put through a big wood chipping machine. I also had to go up in a cherry picker to the top of the trees to cut off branches trimming them so it could fall in a safe area using a chainsaw.
I was also the driver of a small truck that carried the woodchipper and any rubbish from the work sites we had been to all around the town.
