Ditch Witch and Branch Manager Partner to Provide Tree Care Solutions

Ditch Witch and Branch Manager recently announced their new partnership to provide tree care professionals with seamless access to stand-on skid steers and specialized attachments for all their tree removal, maintenance and cleanup needs. Through this collaboration, the companies have created a one-stop shop for ordering Ditch Witch stand-on skid steers and Branch Manager’s tree care attachments. According to the press release, customers will benefit from a single financing program from Ditch Witch Financial Service, as well as a single warranty covering both the machine and the attachment.
“Tree care professionals can now easily find, order and finance the complete solutions that they need for a variety of jobs,” said Brant Kukuk, Ditch Witch product manager. “By pairing our versatile and reliable stand-on skid steers with tree care attachments from an industry leader that has made tree care projects simpler for more than 20 years, contractors can boost jobsite efficiency, reduce labor and simplify complex tasks on the jobsite.”
More on the Partnership
Thanks to the partnership, customers can pair their Ditch Witch stand-on skid steer with five Branch Manager attachments. These include four new grapples and a rake.
From the press release:
- BMG mini skid steer log grapples: Utilizing Hardox wear plate, these grapples offer optimal strength and superior abrasion resistance to various tree care projects. BMG’s log grapples, available in free and powered rotation, offer lifting capacities to 3,000 lbs, enhancing performance and precision for tree care contractors in pick-and-place tasks.
- BMG Rake: Designed to fit the Branch Manager log grapple, this rake can save hours on tree removal jobsites. The rake attachment is ideal for sweeping stump chips, pine needles, rocks or other materials that tree care professionals would otherwise need to rake by hand.
So, what’s next for this partnership? Both Ditch Witch and Branch Manager have said they are committed to continuing to develop their partnership by exploring opportunities to introduce a broader range of products and attachments.
“We are actively collaborating to broaden our portfolio of tree care offerings,” said Kukuk. “This ongoing partnership will enhance the capabilities of tree care professionals, and ensure they have access to the most comprehensive and advanced tools in the industry.”
