Don't cut down mature trees for construction. We use specialized cranes and careful root preservation to relocate established trees, giving them a second chance at life while maintaining your property's greenery.

## Photos and videos

- [Video: This video captures a significant moment from our tree transplanting project at the Mumbai airport. Witnessing a mature tree being carefully lifted by a crane, its entire root system intact, is a powerful sight. It represents our core mission: giving large trees a new lease on life, preserving years of natural growth for future generations to enjoy. This is not just moving a tree; it is about carefully relocating a vital part of our ecosystem.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/ec9ba8e7-f0ee-4040-8d72-707029b8c931)

## About Featured

People often worry about whether a tree will survive the move. The secret isn't just the size of the crane, but how we prep the root ball before lifting. We carefully prune the canopy to reduce stress, dig a 3-4ft trench, and wrap the roots in hessian cloth with rooting hormones. This preparation is the only way to ensure the tree settles into its new home instead of going into shock.

Moving a tree is not just about lifting it. It is a calculated process of preservation. We follow a strict protocol, whether it is a heritage tree at the airport or a mature specimen in a residential complex in Thane. 

### Our Transplantation Process
* **Canopy Reduction:** We manually prune 30-40% of the branches to lighten the load and reduce water demand while the roots re-establish.
* **Root Ball Security:** This is where the work gets tough. We excavate a deep trench and protect the core root ball with hessian cloth and jute rope, applying anti-fungal treatments to minimize transplant shock.
* **Crane Operations:** We use 12T-14T mobile cranes to lift and shift trees safely. Our team ensures the trunk is cushioned and the movement is steady, preventing damage to the bark or structure.
* **Post-Move Care:** The new site is prepped with a specific soil mix, including vermicompost and red soil, and the tree is anchored with bamboo supports to keep it steady against the wind.

We provide relocation services across Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, and Thane. We handle the heavy machinery and the logistics, but we rely on the client to arrange the necessary Tree Authority permits. It is heavy, dirty work, but saving a mature tree is always more rewarding than planting a sapling that takes decades to grow.

## About Greenkam
