"I highly recommend Jeff and everyone at Metro Tree Service! I will never use anyone else. Outstanding service from Jeff and the guys who were here yesterday! They came out in just a couple days after I called them to cut down my tree. Very professional, super fast and so friendly. To top it off, fantastic pricing compared to 10 other companies that bid on our job. The yard looks fantastic! There isn't so much as a twig left in my yard! Great job cleaning up! I couldn't be any happier! Thank you so much! Have a Merry Christmas! 🎁🎅🎄"

"Fernando and his crew are exceptional! Three of my neighbors have already hired him. I can't recommend GC Handyman & Tree Service highly enough! They were on time, did exactly what they said they would do in a timely manner for a reasonable price. Don't know what else you could ask for!"

"KC Tree Service contacted me the day I listed my project and came by to give me a bid that evening. We set up to do the job the next morning around ten they showed up at eight o. 'clock and asked if they could go ahead and take care of mine first thing. They started in and by ten o'clock the branch was down loaded in their truck and my yard cleaned up. I was happy with the results and promptness of service."

"I used A&R for a good sized tree trimming project at my house. I needed climbers in an area that was not easy to access with heavy equipment. Armando and his crew were responsive, respectful of my property and the surrounding structures. They were on time and on budget. They cleaned up after the work was done, and did an excellent job with what I needed done. I would 100% use them again! Armando was professional, and you could tell he takes pride in his work."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

You can use a felling ax to chop down a tree by following the same prep and steps as a chainsaw, but be prepared to use some muscle. For trees bigger than 7 inches in diameter, it can take some time and serious strength to cut down a tree using just an ax. 

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

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.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.
