Preparing for Storms
James Tuttle of Tree Loving Care was quoted in a Tree Services Magazine article entitled Staying Ahead of Storms. Originally published June 2009. Below is an excerpt of the article. Read the full version online at TreeServicesMagazine.com.Excerpt begins below:
With today's meteorological tools and services, most storms are predicted well in advance, giving you hours—and sometimes days—to work your preparedness plan before harsh weather conditions strike. In some storms, extra vehicle preparedness is needed. Snow tires and/or chains may be required. In some circumstances, leaving the larger brush trucks and chippers at the office and using smaller vehicles may be safer and more efficient. The entire fleet should be action-ready at all times. "When trucks and equipment come in at the end of the day, they need to have [gas] tanks full," says James Tuttle. "In other words, equipment needs to be ready to go out for a full day of work at all times, with little notice. Tools need to be inspected for proper working order and either loaded on the proper truck or readily available to be loaded quickly." Tuttle is an ISA certified arborist and owner of Tree Loving Care and Christmas Décor (www.treelovingcare.com) in Lubbock, Texas.
