Plateau Tree Service has developed a specific Environmental Management system to focus on the impact of environmental changes on flora and fauna.
Our fully accredited, AS14001 Environmental Management System includes measure to ensure that all of our tree maintenance activities have the lowest impact on the environment.
Plateau Tree Service Standard Operating Procedures, Safe Work Method Statements and Hazard/Risk Assessments all incorporate protection of the environment and provide guidance for field staff on prevention of environmental damage. All off Plateau Tree Service plant and equipment is state-of-the-art and meets the stringent Californian Emissions Standards.
All by-products produced by tree maintenance activities performed by Plateau Tree Service are recycled.
Our Environmental Health and Safety Officer, Nick Nelson, carries out all training of field staff at the time of their initial induction and audits our operations on a regular basis to ensure compliance with our AS14001 Environmental Management System.
Plateau Tree Service adheres to the most stringent council guidelines regarding tree pruning and removal. We work closely with independent arboricultural consultants to properly assess when a tree should be saved or removed.
Our policy is to make minimum impact on your environment. We implement a strict waste reduction and purchasing policy and reuse and recycle wherever possible. We give back to the environment by donating a significant amount of our wood chip and mulch to local bush regeneration groups and retirement villages.
