ArborCraft Tree Transplanting

West Michigan's Tree Transplanting Expert!

Tree Transplanting ...Then and Now

Ancient Egyptians were the first people in recorded history to transplant trees. Meaning mankind has always had an interest in cultivating their landscape to suit their needs and desires. Today, man is no different. There is one difference though. With today's knowledge, equipment, and technology we can move trees more efficiently than ever before. ArborCraft has invested in the latest tree transplanting equipment with the primary workhorse of the company being a 2023 Big John 90" Tree Transplanter. This spade was designed with Big John's new low profile blades, which allows for accessibility under lower-branched trees this is the first low profile 90" spade in the state of Michigan. We look forward to helping our clients with all their tree transplanting needs!

Tree Transplanting Options

Tree Spading

We work with Landscape Contractors, Municipalities, Universities, and Residential Clients. Whether you have a tree that needs to be moved onsite or are looking to install a new tree, ArborCraft can help!

Ball and Burlaping

For areas not accessible by truck a tree can be packaged in burlap and a wire basket and moved with a large skid steer or telehandler.

For ornamental trees too wide or too delicate to transplant with the tree spade we can hand dig or use an air spade to safely move the tree
