Government efficiency at its finest. Similar to a turn of the century bucket brigade.
There are modern inventions such as a wheelbarrow. You can find them at Lowe’s and Home Depot.
Nonsense. I’ve watched tree services take down two trees in my yard that were pulling on utility wires and strangely, they used wheelbarrows to move cut sections of logs.
Evidently you have never seen a well lead Hispanic tree crew in action!
Actually I have, twice. They started by having one fellow climbing halfway up the tree with a rope just above where the first cut was to be made. Eight people tugged on the other end of the rope after a notch was cut in the tree trunk, thus dropping the tree in a safe place. Next came the chainsaw crews and the wheelbarrows.Evidently you have never seen a well lead Hispanic tree crew in action!
If I go 15 feet up a ladder to wash windows… well I just can’t. I’m afraid of a shaky aluminum extension ladder that high up.
I had leaf filter (tm) installed.....No roofs for me anymore.
Baloney.
Each wheelbarrow trip would take about the time the bucket brigade took to move one log. Each wheelbarrow load could carry ten to a dozen logs. Instead of fifteen men making thirty or forty bucks an hour, the job would be done by three or four minimum wage guys in less time. And that wasn’t uneven ground, it was a residential lawn. An even more efficient way would be to back a truck right up to the downed tree and throw the logs right in as they were cut.
