"Iâ ve hired them now three separate times, twice for some very large pines on my property that were difficult to get to. Their workers are true professionals and thread the needle taking down trees in a very forested spot. Punctual, efficient and very competitively priced. They do an excellent clean up job as well. I will be their customer as long as I live in the area."

"I had a tree leaning over the house that seem to be very very hard to cut down. I got a call from Lucius. He was referred by Angie’s list and I must say he did an awesome job. I have already referred him to someone else and would definitely use him again."

"They gave me a great price for a difficult tree removal, plus trimming a few other trees in the yard. They even pushed up our scheduled date when I had an emergency tree fall and wanted to get the other tree out asap before it fell too. I highly recommend Odoms!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Southern Acres did an amazing job hanging our outdoor Christmas lights this year! They were incredibly professional, easy to work with, and went above and beyond for us. Not only did they make our office look festive and beautiful, but they also cleaned our gutters while on site and even ran to the store to grab the power cord we needed to finish the setup. That kind of service is hard to find these days. We’ll definitely be using them again—highly recommend! 🎄✨"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.

The best time to transplant a tree is when it is dormant. For many trees, this means either in the fall after the leaves have dropped (around October or November) or in early spring before new growth begins (around March). The ideal timing can depend on the type of tree. Deciduous trees do well when moved in early spring or fall, while evergreens are best transplanted in early spring or late summer. For example, pine trees are best moved in early fall, but maples prefer late fall. Avoid transplanting in winter, as the frozen or hard, cold soil poses a significant risk to the roots and prevents the tree from acclimating properly.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

Unless there’s some sort of rule in your community’s homeowners’ association that requires you to remove a stump, there’s no law that says you have to take it out. If you’re not wedded to the idea of removing it, there are plenty of ways to get creative with this tree remnant. Using the stump as the medium for a wood carving or turning it into a planter are just two examples of ways to repurpose a tree stump.

A chainsaw is the best tool to cut down a tree, but you may also use a handsaw or ax. You may also want to use a lopper or pole saw to remove limbs before cutting down the tree. Wear chainsaw chaps and protective gear, including eyewear and earplugs if you use a chainsaw. Again, if you’re unsure about how to use this tool, this project may be one to skip.
