Does anyone know of any contractors operating a mobile tree spade working in the North Brisbane/Sunshine Coast area?

Bernie, what size of tree/palm are you expecting to lift ...

kg's and physical size?

I don't know about Bris, but Tree Doctor NSW (Shanes Park Syd) did have a large truck mounted Vermeer spade. He may travel to Qld if you have enough work for him.

Like the one they had at Jensens. I think its called Leafy Liaisons now. I also worked with TCC between 1995 to 1997. And we had a local contractor that had a truck mounted tree spade. He had an hourly rate of $90/hr and was pretty handy. We planted a number of advanced brush box around KR and relocated a number of camellias in the Botanic Gardens as well as planting some pin oaks around the Amphitheatre in Queens Park.
