Question for “tree harvester”( used on harwoods)operators/owners.

I know a tree harvester is not a farm machine, but from what I have seen there looks to be big differences between the tidiness of work that operators of the above machines can achieve.
Some HARDWOOD woodlands, look like a bomb has gone off in the wood after the tree harvester has left the site,as so much debris strewn about and hung up in trees. Yet another “Hardwood wood”cut by a harvester looks a much tidier job.
So why the big difference, I ask as a I have been offered the “bomb effect” debris for nothing, but declined the offer as too much work involved to make any money out of it selling the wood as firewood.
Might be ok for someone who wants the “ so say FREE wood” for their own wood burner.

Pride of work, the other is chasing the £1 note and can't do it effectively, annoys me to see an untidy site too, they wouldn't leave their own land in that mess :mad:

By all accounts debris left as habitats for wildlife and the environment, looks a bloody mess though,
Local estate even leaves pile of good cord wood for the wildlife,

Any excuse is better than none, seems like some double standards as regards being environmentally friendly. :rolleyes:
