About Us: The History of Caretree

For over Forty years, Caretree has specialized in the manufacturing of equipment for nurserymen and landscapers. We have sold over 5000 tree transplanters in over 40 countries, more than any other manufacturer, and our sales and service personnel have 70 plus year of industry experience. We work closely with growers and landscapers in the U.S., Canada, and abroad to understand our customers unique needs and provide the most powerful and versatile equipment on the market. As we have grown, we have innovated and expanded our product offering. We were the first in the industry to offer a compact transplanter and develop the truncated spades. In addition to a wide variety of tree transplaters, we also offer balers, ball handlers and other equipment accessories.

Testimonials

Piedmont, South Carolina
Six years ago we bought a Caretree 30 that has been
in constant use. We move thousands of trees with very
few problems. We also have the interchangeable 20 "-25"
spades which gave us a large variety in ball sizes. We
have had our Caretree 40" diameter transplanter with
interchangeable 35" spades for the past three years and
have been very happy with the results.

Plain Field, New Hampshire
During that first spring season some of the comments heard around the nursery were, 'only took two days to do what took two weeks before,' and 'we could never dig all this material by hand before,' also I don't believe it is so simple!' And now six years later one can still hear some of those same comments. The tree spade impresses us with its ability to dig in the adverse conditions of New Hampshire and Vermont soil.

For us, the Caretree tree spade is the extra thrust in the hectic spring rush. It keeps working right into snow fall and it is the best investment we have made so far.

McMinnville, Tennesee
The first spade, Harley, was a demonstrator when I purchased it, and we dug 20.000+ trees of 2" to 33/4' caliper in the roughest conditions possible. We were digging by contract then for several Nurseries in the area. And of course we got the roughest digging going. I appreciate the friendship and service of Caretree Systems.

Maintenance has been minimal, the factory is Quick to respond with parts when needed and our overall contact with Caretree has been excellent.

I have never worked with a Company so concerned that everything was just right. My Caretree digger (model 601) Works Great! No Questions your company makes quality equipment. However, a company is only as good as its people and I feel this is where the Caretree Company excels.
