Project Overview
Tree Removal Poulsbo – A Full Day of Expert Tree Service
Our client in Poulsbo, WA reached out to ClearTree for a comprehensive tree removal project under our guaranteed day rate service. The property, situated on a downhill slope, had five large Douglas fir trees that needed removal. The homeowner wanted the branches chipped and hauled away but requested that the logs be cut into roughly 20-foot sections and left in a pile. Given the terrain and tree size, we employed specialized equipment and a highly coordinated crew to ensure efficiency and safety.
Scope of Work
✅ Remove five Douglas fir trees from a sloped area.
✅ Chip all branches and haul away the wood chips.
✅ Use a crane to assist with tree removal and precisely cut the logs into 20’ sections for stacking.
✅ Leave logs neatly piled for the homeowner’s future use.
With a scheduled work window of 8:30 AM to 2 PM, our team executed the project with surgical precision, ensuring minimal disturbance to the property.
Challenges
Every tree removal project presents unique challenges, and this one was no exception:
1. Steep Terrain & Equipment Access
The downhill location of the trees meant that traditional felling techniques weren’t an option. We needed specialized equipment to safely bring down the trees in sections without causing damage to the property.
2. Controlled Cutting & Log Management
The homeowner’s request to leave logs in 20-foot sections required a level of precision cutting that isn’t typically part of standard tree removal. Using a crane, we had to coordinate each cut carefully to ensure safe lowering and organized stacking.
3. Efficient Time Management
With a guaranteed day rate, we had a hard stop at 2 PM, meaning we needed to remove all five trees, chip the branches, cut the logs to size, and leave the property cleaned up—all within the allocated time frame.
Our Solution
Strategic Use of Equipment for Safe & Efficient Tree Removal
Given the complexity of the project, we deployed a combination of high-performance equipment and expert crew coordination to ensure a smooth operation:
- Dino Lift: Used to access high sections of the trees safely.
- Crane: Essential for removing large sections and precisely cutting them into 20-foot logs.
- Two Chip Trucks & Chipper: Processed and hauled away all branches efficiently.
- Skid Steer: Assisted in moving logs into a neat pile for the homeowner.
Step-by-Step Execution
- Initial Setup & Safety Measures – Our team arrived at 8:00 AM to set up equipment and assess the terrain. Safety protocols were established, including rigging and traffic control for crane operations.
- Tree Removal Process – Starting at 8:30 AM, our climbers and crane operators worked together to systematically remove each Douglas fir, cutting and lowering sections with precision.
- Chipping & Cleanup – As branches were removed, they were immediately fed into the chipper, loaded into the chip trucks, and hauled away.
- Log Sectioning & Stacking – Each tree trunk was cut into 20-foot logs with the crane, then neatly stacked using the skid steer.
- Final Inspection & Property Cleanup – By 1:45 PM, all five trees had been safely removed, branches chipped, logs stacked, and the property cleared of debris.
