Preston was timely, nice, and professional. He cleared the brush quickly and left the area clean. Part of our initial discussion was concerning the brush **never coming back**. This was supposed to clear this stuff for good. When it was all done he said if I have any problems with that, call and...

Excellent process! It's been exactly one year since I had this work completed and my kitchen cabinets still look brand new, no chips, stains, etc. In face, the few times I've found a red sauce dripped down a cabinet door, it wiped clean with just water. Definitely would hire them again.

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

If debris from a tree located in a government-owned space (such as a sidewalk, public school, or government property) falls in your yard, it is the city’s or state government’s responsibility to have the debris cleaned up. On the other hand, most states only hold a neighbor liable for cleaning up their tree’s debris if they were negligent in caring for the tree.

The legality of blowing leaves into the street depends on your city or county laws. Many cities have codes that restrict blowing leaves into the street because it can obstruct the view of nearby drivers and make cars dirty, not to mention angering neighbors. Violations can result in a fine or other problems. You can check the codes on your municipal government website to learn more local guidelines, but avoid spraying leaves into streets for now.

The easiest way to remove bushes is first to cut the bush down. You may need to use a handsaw, pruning shears, or a chainsaw for thicker branches. Once you’ve removed most of the branches, you can then cut the base of the shrub as low to the ground as you can get. Then, with a shovel, dig around until you expose the roots. Dig out the roots, being careful not to leave any roots in the soil.

No. Unfortunately, leaf removal is your responsibility, no matter what tree the leaves come from. It would be pretty hard to regulate leaves since they can be moved by the wind or water. Imagine the detective skills it would take to determine which tree each leaf came from and who was then liable for removing it. Instead, plan to remove any leaves on your property.

Accepted materials include construction debris, office furniture, and general waste. Hazardous items may require special handling.
