Belgian Tree Service (KY) transformed business model with their Intrepid KM100 Tele
Patrick Orse from Belgian Tree Service explains it in simple terms: “the purchase of an Intrepid KM100 Tele miniloader changed the way I run my business“, he says. The Intrepid, combined with his new grapple saw truck, has increased jobsite efficiency and safety in a way that he is now able to take on more jobs than ever before. “The Intrepid allows us to clean up debris from tree removal more quickly and safely“, he explains. Added to that comes a reduction in footprint and physical labor, allowing for better employee retention and satisfaction. “My guys love the Intrepid“, Patrick adds.
Belgian Tree Service was established by Patrick Orse to service customers in the Greater Cincinnati area, including Northern Kentucky. He built the company from the ground up and now runs it as a highly professional, full-service tree company. Orse explains they do not focus solely on tree removal, but also on pruning, tree health, and storm damage mitigation. When it comes to storm damage clean-up, tree pruning, or full removal, the Intrepid loader comes into play and is used on a daily basis.
The Intrepid is used with a Branch Manager Grapple to remove large logs and stacks of brush from customer’s back yards to the chipper and dump trailer. After a pruning job or tree removal, jobsite safety is ensured by removing tree debris. This component of a tree care job would take many hours more weren’t it for the Intrepid loader, Patrick explains.
“Tree care is an industry that relies heavily on mechanization to improve efficiency and safety“, Patrick says, “so the Intrepid fits perfectly in our business“.
Distributor and manufacturer support is crucial for tree care companies like Belgian Tree Service. “A machine down on the jobsite can cost us significantly if we can’t get parts or service fast“, Patrick states. “The guys from Miniloaders.com has stood by us from the moment we purchased the Intrepid in early 2022“.
“We will definitely be buying an Intrepid loader again“, Patrick says.
