"I had 6 trees removed and some other damaged trees cleaned up from a huge storm by McCormick Outdoor Services. One tree was very large and hanging over the garage. They did excellent work, the price was good, and were very communicative though the process. I will definitely use them again if needed."

"I had 6 stumps and an entire large bush pulled out by this company. They hauled off everything and filled in the holes where the stumps and bush had been. They leveled the soil in all areas where they had worked, and there were no ruts left from the machinery they used in the yard at all. I also had Austin, Chayton, and Parker come in and trim all of my trees. They raked up all of the sticks and mulched them along with all of the branches that were trimmed out of the trees. Everything looked great when they were done. I was very pleased with their work on both jobs, and I appreciated the way they made sure that I was completely satisfied with the work they had done. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others."

"Chris and Black Bear were awesome. They came out in the morning, assessed damages and were able to clear everything out that same afternoon. They paid extra care in moving the tree and their equipment across my lawn and they didn’t damage anything. Great work, highly recommended."

Tree Service 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.

In some states and municipalities, you will need a permit to remove a tree on your property. In many cases where permits are required, a tree must reach a maximum height before a permit is required to remove it. You can either ask your local building department or a tree removal professional if you’ll need a permit. If you do, you can expect to pay between $50 and $150 for the permit alone. Your tree removal company should pull the permit for you and include the permit fee in your total.

Trees provide many benefits, including shade, habitat for local wildlife, and cleaner air, so it’s always a good idea to try an alternative strategy like crown reduction before you chop one down. But sometimes, cutting down a tree is the only option (like if it’s severely diseased). A licensed arborist can assess the tree and recommend the best course of action.

You can start your search for a reputable arborist online by looking for professionals who hold the proper licensing and are fully insured. Next, read through some online reviews to see what kind of service the expert brings to the table, and confirm that they don’t have a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, you can ask the professional for a list of references and then call them to ask questions about the service, professionalism, value, and more that the expert brings to the table.

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.
