ABSTRACT:
A truck-mounted, tree-transporting machine of the type including a plurality of powered spades which, when forced into the earth about a tree to be moved, serve to sever the roots and form a pod surrounding the tree's root ball. The pod, with the root ball encased therein, is elevated by a hydraulically operated mechanism and loaded onto the truck bed with the pod being rotated during the loading process so as to be disposed toward the front end of the truck bed, the tree branches thus extending from the rear of the truck.
