Asplundh are in Aus and NZ. As far as I know they are only doing line clearance, no residential work.

Yeah, a mate of mine in my class works for asplundh. They've got the warragamba dam contract...

TreeScapes is a very classy and reputable tree firm here in Sydney. Two of my teachers work for them, and my head climbing teacher used to run it.

Have they seen the shed smashing video interview with Kylie, real professional stuff up here mate!

If it wasn't for that video they probably wouldn't have coughed up the $2k damages they did months later.

Maybe they just send the crap to Queensland? Who knows.

hey guys,
Treescapes the biggest tree company by far, alot of contracts, land clearance, council stuff and general mayhem, alot of bushmen so some are prity ruff, alot of good climbers tho so not all bad, As for Asplundh..... Well... They do mostly line clearance, council work but ive noticed they have a big bandit and a excavator for land clearance now.. dont have a good reputation... they destroyed nz's tree surgery market in 95 when the big US corporate dickheads came in with US money and undercut the other the guys with a REDICULOUS hourly rate, the industry stil hasnt recovered fully and there still not getting what the industrys worth.... so not a favourate especially for me.
