so my friend calls me and needs help moving a trailer, "ok" i thought, "no problem." then he said to bring some tools. that sounded strange but ok... then he said we need a chainsaw too... what the?? what kind of a trailer is this?? he said it was a small trailer but a couple scrub trees grew up around it. so i get there and this is what i see. the trees, left to right, are a mulberry, cherry, and box-elder maple. i didnt keep the wood cause i just finished haulin home 12 loads of wood the day before. http://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/cut-a-lil-hedge-yesterday.269537/
I cut down the mulbery and the box elder maple. I only cut the top off the cherry so that i could cut it flush with the ground. also to keep the saw away from the steel on the trailer.
we had to jack the trailer up and get some boards/frozen dirt under it. you can see by the line on the tire that it was sunk in up to the axles. this is my partner in crime. lol.
we ended up moving the trailer with the skid loader. it went good after we got air in the tires.
he said the trailer was there for 6-8 years. I'm kicking myself for not counting the growth rings. i think it was more like 12-15
