Monitor Group’s rapid response and hire-fleet solutions are supporting Queensland arborists in a time where support is needed.
Following the destructive impact of Cyclone Alfred across Queensland, arborists and emergency services have been working tirelessly to manage the widespread clean-up. With extensive tree damage, hazardous limbs and fallen debris across residential and commercial areas, the demand for reliable vegetation-management equipment has significantly increased.
In response, Monitor promptly deployed a fleet of reinforcement wood chippers to Queensland, bolstering local availability and supporting contractors with the machinery needed to handle the increased workload. With years of experience working alongside arborists and tree professionals, Monitor understands the urgency and scale of work involved in post-storm recovery.
Whether it’s for clearing debris, grinding stumps or safely accessing damaged trees, Monitor’s hire fleet ensures contractors can continue working efficiently, even under the most challenging conditions.
