Heartwood Tree Service We have the distinct honor of caring for the trees at Salisbury National Cemetery
One of our favorite strength tests is the MANKEY™ hanging test. Here, Patrick
tests one of Freedom Park's historic Yoshino Cherries.
We are dead serious about the MANKEY™ test.
Every three months, everyone in the company practices Aerial Rescue, using our patented "Cranker, the injured climber" Heartwood Practice Dummy™.
We practice rescuing injured workers from the bucket trucks as well.
We also keep all of our employees current with their CPR/ First Aid certifications,
mostly to keep ahead of the curve. Did you know that it's 30 compressions to
2 rescue breaths? We found that out in the last class.
Every Friday morning, Jeff Fabian, a Certified Tree Care Safety Professional,
leads our safety meetings. He has a prepared topic,but he always leaves time
in the meetings for discussions of "close calls", like the time he almost got run
over by a crane.
Last winter, we took a company trip up to Snowshoe Mountain to ski and
snowboard. We thrashed it up pretty hardcore, and then caused a scene at
Connections, the nightclub on top of the mountain. Apparently, they weren't
ready for a West Side Story-type dancing routine. We feel it is their loss.
If you ever do have the misfortune of having a tree fall on your house, pray that
you have the good fortune to have Cristino, Heartwood's top climber for the last
15 years, take it off of your house.
Yeah, we are.
