Very Tempting! Wow I'd Love to live in the Keys Again!

Go for it! This is a unique opportunity as we are restaffing the entire crew, so a climber could bring his groundsman and already be confident in his staff. We like to run a 4 man crew, 2 cutters and 2 groundsmen.

We have top of the line...anything the guys want they get. Occasionally I will hand them a Bailey's or Sherrill Catalog and say what do you need. They did not find anything in the Kick A$$ Sale from Bailey's, but they looked. New saw...you got it anything at all for safety

It just occured to me that you are probably wondering about trucks and chippers. We have 3 Internationals with 55-60 Altec booms, 3 Bandit chippers one 280 hd that is a 2004, another 280 and an 1890. Use mostly Stihl saws, the guys like the 02oo for palms and I am not sure what others we have, but they are Real proud of them. ur ur ur and all that

As much as possible. What would that be?

 

[Jed1899]

[vharrison2]

Super Moderator, we don't have many rattlers here, come on down. You can use the moderater pay to supplement your income and it won't interfere with the no-compete rule!

 

[vharrison2]

What would it take for you to relocate?

Hmmmm Considering I own a Business here and have 9 trucks and several other pieces of equipment I'd have to say That proposition would be very exprensive.

 

[vharrison2]

wOW, Are they all doing tree work? We have 11 trucks but we do landscaping and maintenance as well. Tree work is the bulk of our buisness but all three compliment eachother. Well, if you get down this way, stop in.

Hey vharrison2, i was checking out my work options. Im from New Zealand and am completing a 3 year diploma in arboriculture. I have all my own climbing gear, and a good couple of years experience. Im not interested in working out of a bucket truck, just climbing.
So what can you tell me? What kind of work do you get? Pay etc.
Cheers James

[coydog]

what is the cost of living in the keys? I'm an experienced foreman/climber/ISA certified arborist in the pacific northwest. pretty happy here generally speaking but would always consider relocating for the right opportunity (I'm not a bad salesman either) what kind of salary does it take to make a living in your neck of the woods? what kind of opportunities for growth exist within your company? what benefits do you offer? feel free to PM or e-mail me.
thanks,
Joe
