Lots of honeysuckle and mulberry vines have crept up this wire fence, creating a dense and tangled mass that has become increasingly difficult to manage. The overgrowth has not only obscured the fence but has also posed a challenge for the property owner, leading them to reach out for professional assistance. And, a main portion of this job is to have all of the stumps removed. Most stump removal companies will not tackle stump removals with fencing in them. Understanding the urgency of the situation, the customer called us in to remove all the foliage and the fence as well. This task is particularly pressing due to the presence of dangerous poison ivy, which lurks among the seemingly harmless honeysuckle and mulberry vines. The risk associated with touching the vines is significant, as the poison ivy can cause severe skin reactions. Thus, we are committed to removing these hazardous leaves once and for all. Furthermore, we will also take care of the fence removal to ensure that the poison ivy cannot re-establish itself in the area.

When faced with a job like this, it is often the simplest solution that proves to be the most effective. Keeping this principle in mind, we decided to utilize a chainsaw to clear the thick brush that has taken over the area. The chainsaw, with its powerful spinning chain, makes quick work of the dense foliage, slicing through the plants with remarkable ease and leaving no trace behind. As we methodically work back and forth across the fence line, we ensure that every last bit of the overgrowth is cleared away. While we make this process sound straightforward, the reality is that it requires a great deal of skill and precision. We must be particularly careful to maintain a safe distance from the fence itself to avoid any risk of sparking, a task that proves to be more challenging than we initially anticipated. The potential hazards of working in such a densely overgrown area demand our full attention and focus.
Despite a few close calls, we successfully clear away all of the brush without causing any hazards or issues. With the foliage gone, we can now turn our attention to the next phase of the project: fence removal. The first step in this process involves decoupling the wire mesh from the support posts. We carefully clip the mesh at the points where it connects to the poles, ensuring that we do not damage any surrounding areas, and then lower the mesh down to the ground. Once it's on the ground, we roll it up like a rug, making it easier to transport, and haul it off to our truck. However, removing the support poles is a bit more complicated and requires a more strategic approach. For this task, we utilize the versatile Vermeer 925, a mini skid steer that has become an invaluable asset in our operations. As you may have read in many of our previous posts, the Vermeer is equipped with a variety of attachments that enable it to perform hundreds of different functions. To effectively pull out the poles (pun intended), we attach the grapple, which is specifically designed for this purpose. The grapple firmly grips the poles, allowing us to pluck them out of the ground with the same ease one might use to pull carrots from rich soil. Once the poles are extracted, we load them onto the truck for removal.
As we pull out the poles, we inevitably leave behind some significant holes in the ground. Leaving the site in this condition would be unacceptable, so we recognize that it’s now time to level the area and restore it to a smooth, even surface. For this, we employ our leveler attachment, which is equipped with sharp blades designed to cut through the uneven earth with precision. As the leveler glides over the ground, it smooths out the surface, ensuring that any remnants of the fence and the brush are completely eradicated. With the ground now clear and beautifully smooth, we can confidently say that the job is complete. Our customer's property is transformed, feeling much more open and unified than before.
