Bloemfontein notes on equipment & supplies
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: turning hedge clippings and fruit tree prunings into mulch for beds and paths
- Schools, churches and municipalities: parks and cemeteries chipping branches into mulch for municipal beds
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: chipping branches on site so the complex sends fewer loads to the dump
