Tree Safety Tip: Positive Control

What is positive control? The use of rigging equipment, ropes, lowering devices, cutting techniques, and specific knots designed to ensure that we maintain control of tree pieces being removed or tools being used while working aloft.

We understand it can be concerning to watch tree work happening above your home during pruning or removals. Rest assured, our arborists are trained to maintain positive control at all times. This means we use specialized rigging equipment, ropes, knots, and precise cutting techniques to ensure every branch, limb, and tool is carefully controlled from start to finish. These skills are developed and practiced in controlled environments so we can confidently protect your property, your loved ones, and our crew on every job.

June is National Safety Month. Safety is often measured by what doesn’t happen, but real safety is built on what does happen every day in the field. Safety is the adjustments crews make, the decisions under pressure, and the way teams communicate and support each other in dynamic conditions. Our work is variable, and success depends on the ability to adapt.

This month, we’re focused on strengthening that capacity:
• Skills and experience
• Planning and preparation
• Real-time communication
• Recognition and management of hazards

Our goal isn’t just fewer incidents - it’s better work. Because when work is done well, safety follows. That's the Townsend Arborcare difference.

Beautiful landscapes start with the right foundation. Native trees are naturally suited to our environment, offering lasting beauty, strength, and value for your property. Here’s a look at some of the species that thrive in the areas we serve.

Northern Red Oak (Quercus rubra)
Northern Red Oak is a fast-growing, strong, and majestic tree native to Indiana. With glossy green leaves that turn deep red in the fall, it provides excellent shade and supports local wildlife. Its straight trunk and expansive canopy make it ideal for streetscapes, parks, and large residential properties, bringing structure and beauty year-round.

Sugar Maple (Acer saccharum)
Sugar Maple is a Midwest classic, celebrated for its stunning orange, red, and yellow fall foliage. Slow-growing but long-lived, it provides dense shade in summer and serves as a cornerstone for Indianapolis yards and parks. Its hardiness and iconic seasonal color make it a favorite among homeowners and municipalities alike.

Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus)
Eastern White Pine adds height, texture, and evergreen presence to Indianapolis landscapes. Known for its soft, long needles and pyramidal shape, it grows quickly and provides shelter for birds in winter. Its tall, graceful form makes it perfect for creating privacy screens, windbreaks, or simply adding a natural vertical element to yards and parks.
