I'm Chad Bry, A Plus Tree. I've been in the industry since
1997. I'm the national director of safety and training. Really, what we do is we take care of the urban forest. We're actually
managers of the urban forest. So when we go to a jobsite, we really assess for the hazards on the job,
and we look at those hazards, and we want to mitigate and manage those hazards because we're taking care of the trees,
they're all around us and so we make sure the trees are safe and healthy for us since we live in urban forests.
And so it's key is that by managing the urban forest, you need pros to take care of your urban forest, and going pro you need
Vermeer.
Our mission for A Plus is to become the destination
for professional tree management, and we do this by leveraging technology to
improve tree care and maximize urban recycling, and a lot of people think it's our technology
that we're leveraging, but it's not. It's all our vendors, Vermeer's
technology because they're innovators to work with us to build America's best tree care company.
With Vermeer, they're not a vendor to us at all, they're a partner. They're just always there.
So with Vermeer and RDO, just been just amazing.
They always handle it and they take care of their equipment,
and that's the promise RDO has and that's the promise Vermeer has to us, too. At the end of the day,
we make chips, that's what we do. Vermeer's products make chips; they make great chips.
