What to know locally in Bloemfontein
Garden services in Bloemfontein often hire chippers to handle winter prunings in Westdene and Universitas, and truck-mounted cherry pickers for large street-side crowns. Homeowners near Naval Hill and in Heidedal tend to buy small chainsaws and pole saws. In cold weather, warm up the saw properly and keep chaps, gloves, ear muffs and a visor on, even for a quick job.
Bloemfontein: trees, weather and gardens
Bloemfontein's gardens and streets carry generations of planted trees: oaks, plane trees, poplars, cypresses, pepper trees, Chinese elms and gums, with indigenous karee and wild olive in many yards. The city sits on open Free State grassland, with cold, dry winters, sharp frost and a summer of short, heavy thunderstorms. Winter drought stresses trees, and dry wood breaks in the first strong storms. Many large, older trees in Westdene, Universitas and around Naval Hill now crowd roofs and power lines. Homeowners ask for crown reduction and removal, schools and churches for safety pruning, and smallholdings near Bainsvlei for windbreak work. Ask the municipality before cutting a street tree.
The requests we see from Bloemfontein usually come from:
- Homeowners: chipping a big pile of prunings after the jacaranda or plane tree is cut back
- Schools, churches and municipalities: parks, schools and churches clearing storm branches without truck loads
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: a day or two of chipping after the complex's annual tree trimming
