 AFFORDABLE FELLERS, LLC    

 

 

 

Affordable Fellers is based in Durango, Colorado serving private landowners and the Forest Service in the 4 corners region.  We specialize in forest thinning, right-of-way clearing, wildfire mitigation, and hazard tree removals.  We utilize a wide variety of specialized equipment to maximize efficiency.  Our top-of-the-line equipment and professional crews allows us to tackle even the toughest jobs and separate us from the competition. "No job too large or too small" is our motto.

  • John Deere 648D Grapple Skidder

  • Vermeer 1800 - 18" diameter capacity chipper

  • Kobelco 220 Log Loader

  • CAT 268B Tracked Skid Steer

Our late model chippers quickly devour trees up to 18" in diameter, again, for maximum efficiency.

For large projects we use our rubber-tired grapple skidders to fetch felled logs out of the woods. Once the logs are decked our tracked log loader will load the merchantable saw logs onto our log truck for sale at local saw mills.

Customers who have valuable merchantable timber on their property will receive an offset price from the sale of the logs. 

For smaller wildfire mitigation projects we can

chip all the trees
haul them away
burn all trees and slash
or a combination of any
