"The Award Tree service showed up on time and did an excellent job cutting down a dead palm tree. They did the job immediately. The crew did a great job cleaning up and removing all debris. Next morning they returned with a stump grinder to complete the job. I would hire Award Tree Service anytime I need tree work an recommend them to anyone looking for fast, efficient and reasonably priced tree service."

"Good experience. Fast, professional and a price that was well below all the other competetors. Plus he actually did the right thing and checked on permit and got arborist to write a letter (all for no additional fee). I'm running out of trees, but if I need any more trimming, J Macias is definitely who I'm calling. (Remove one large laurel okay, major trim to second large laurel oak -- $2800)"

"I can easily recommend Gold Palm Solutions if you need tree removal. I was quite satisfied with their price. I did have them include stump grinding. Of course, the cleanup was excellent. I also had them secure a Shady Lady tree for me so I could get that in the ground. Although a separate contract for me several days after the tree removal, I was glad to have them make a wise decision on the perfect tree. They brought it, installed it, and really took care throughout the process. I was once again impressed with their skills. Most of my interactions were with Alex and Jay. I can only say I enjoyed working with them. They are both personable and were willing to answer my numerous questions. They seemed genuinely interested in being sure I was satisfied with everything. I appreciated this a lot. If you are looking for an honest, fair, skilled tree removal service and/or related services, I'd recommend giving them a call."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

Hiring an arborist costs around $900 on average, with prices ranging from $250 to $2,500 or more. Some arborists charge an hourly rate, typically between $100 and $350 per hour. The final cost depends on several factors, including the type of work, the number of trees, accessibility, and whether you hire an independent arborist or a larger tree service company. When hiring, you should also consider their experience and insurance coverage.

Below are some estimated costs for common arborist jobs:

  • Small tree removal: $300 to $500

  • Large tree removal: $500 to $2,000 or more

  • Tree health assessment: $150

  • Trimming a small tree: $75 to $200

  • Trimming a large tree: $150 to $400

  • Dealing with invasive species: $150 to $1,000 or more

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.
