Where can I find a new/used chip box?

[Flubberboy]

I've rusted out another chip dump box and am tired of patching them back up. Where can I find a new one or good used one? Are new ones outrageous or just high?

Thanks!
Dennis

Besides the Tree Trader, I've seen them listed in other tree care industry magazines for $800 -$1600 including hoist. As Begleytree mentioned, most appear to be Asplundh takeoffs.

In the March, 2007 Tree Trader, check out G&A Equipment's ad on p.15. It says they have 20 Asplundh takeoffs for $1800 ea. Phone # is: 800-856-8261.

tree trader is your best bet. yes there all asplundh take off's , but ive never bought a better body in my life. i bought a used takeoff for 400 bucks. painted it and it lasted me the past 6 years. i just sold the truck and body. and new there about 8000 bucks.

Thanks everyone!
I hadn't heard of Tree Trader magazine but it sounds like I better start getting it.

Thanks again.
