ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method of handling tree trunks is provided. The tree trunks are loaded on a bunk pivoted on a transport vehicle with the tree butts in alignment and projecting to the rear. The tree butts extend far enough to the rear and the bunk is sufficiently close to the ground that, upon pivoting of the bunk to bring the butt ends of the trees to the ground, contact between the butt ends and the ground occurs before the trees begin to slip off the bunk. The pivoting of the bunk is then halted, and the vehicle moves forwardly to allow the trees to be dragged off the bunk by the fric- tion with the ground. In this manner, the trees are deposited on the ground with their ends in alignment.
