Summer Storms and Trees

You might not think it but waste bin hire is a great way to prepare for the summer storm season in Sydney. One of the best ways that you can keep your family and property safe is to be prepared for the heavy rains, strong winds, lightning and hail that are all part and parcel of living in Australia. This is where waste bin hire comes in. You’ll find that preparing your garden for the summer storm season will leave you with plenty of green waste to fill a fair few waste bins.

If anything from your garden is going to do some damage, it’ll be a tree. Here are two things you can do to reduce the damage they can cause in a storm:

• Dropped Branches: Australia has wonderful and striking native trees like eucalypts and wattles, unfortunately, so that they can survive in a climate where drought is common they have developed mechanisms that can prove dangerous to people and homes. Storms often occur after long periods of dry, hot weather. This dry, hot weather is precisely the kind of weather that will see your gum trees suddenly drop whole limbs. Sometimes these limbs don’t make it to the ground but can become caught up in other branches. To limit the amount of flying debris in storms, make sure that you remove any such branches before they get a chance to become airborne and smash into roofs or cars.

• Trimming: Strong winds can easily make trees sway and whip about, and this can lead to trees coming into contact with powerlines. If your tree hits a power line it can lead to power failures, fires, and possibly serious injury or death if it downs the power line. The best way you can prevent such an incident is to make sure that your trees and their branches are at least three metres away from any power lines. Trimming them back is the best way to achieve this. It is highly advisable that you get a professional in to do this to make sure that it is done safely. The last thing you want is to get hurt because you’re trying to prevent an injury happening.
