The first tree service's solution was to completely cut the oak down and remove the stump. They had no solution for 2nd tree because of utility wires. Justin's solution was to have his climber cut and remove only the lifeless and weighty limbs to allow the wind to blow through the oak limbs and branches. Justin explained the future re-newal of growth. I chose Justin's service 1. because of the rave reviews on Angie's List 2. because Justin's solution was to save this 'ancient' oak and 3. because no trucks would be driven into the yard

The taking down of the tree in front was good. He stated that the estimate did not include the hauling away of the main part of the tree in front. Russell who did he estimate, said hauling away the main part of the tree in front would cost $50.00.. When it came to taking it away Erwin said it was $250.00. He got it.
He was not going to trim one of the trees left in the front yard and had to be reminded to do it. He did so reluctantly and did not trim it all. It was part of the estimate.
The job taking the stump left a large root sticking out of the ground burried under a lagre pile of ground up stump and dirt. My husband had to remove it later when we were re-seeding and leveling the ground where the tree had been.
Erwin just seemed rushed toward the end of the job and wanted to get away fast. His crew was very professional, friendly and paid attention to detail. The owner just seemed distant.
We felt he should have honored the price the estimator gave us and didn''t.

FAQs for dirt hauling projects in Gary, IN
The kinds of items or materials accepted will vary by hauling company. Some companies will not handle hazardous waste, but hiring ones that do will cost from $5 to $100 or more, depending on what type and quantity of material.
Most companies will haul items such as:
Construction and remodeling waste: $100–$600
Appliances: $50–$600
Furniture: $50–$400
Electronics: $60–$200
Yard waste: $70–$500
Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.
The cost to hire a professional junk hauling service ranges from $60 to $600, averaging about $270. Your final price is determined by the type of junk, amount of junk, the distance to the dumpsite, and the equipment required to move and haul your items or materials. Keep in mind that construction junk removal is more expensive than hauling household items, so expect to pay $800 for removing large piles of debris.
The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities.
When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.
The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type.
When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.
