Here's what we look for -

  • Large-scale tree work (coppicing and pollarding)
  • Large quantities of tree branches (at least 15-20 large branches per donation/collection from our approved species list below)
  • Majority of tree branches needs to be at least 3ft-4ft in length at a minimum

Donations/deliveries are welcome; however, we do have a large flatbed trailer (16ft) for collections from within a 15 mile radius of the park.
