Environmental Policies

Est in 2001, we have a well respected name and reputation as specialist Tree Surgeons & Arboriculturalists

Holly Oak Tree Services recognize the importance of environmental protection. 

We are committed to operating responsibly in compliance with all legal environmental requirements and the prevention of pollution. It is our aim to minimise waste and recycle wherever possible.

All of our tree waste is recycled. The branches and cord wood are chipped into re-usable mulch (bio mass) & the wood is processed into firewood, planked timber and chainsaw carvings

All machinery is purchased with environmental protection in mind, and is kept regularly serviced and maintained to ensure optimum performance. Machinery is turned off when not in use or running idle. Bio chain oil is used in our chainsaws.  Pesticides are used in accordance with the Pesticides Regulations 1986 part III of the food and Environment Protection Act 1985

Nesting birds and their eggs are protected by law under The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and the Countryside Right of Way Act 2000. Many other species of animals are also protected i.e Bats and Badgers. In the event of protected species or roosts being discovered during operations, we will stop work immediately and inform the relevant authorities for further advice.

We are trained in recognising potential bat roosts and ensure to undertake a habitat disturbance assessment at all sites before work commences.
