"We had a large tree removal project involving 20 trees and including a large, damaged maple with 5ft dia trunk. I received multiple quotes for the project and ended up selecting Jose. His price was competitive and in-line with others. Showed up with his crew a day earlier than planned and completed on-time in 3 days with all material removed from site and stumps ground down. Great, positive attitude from Jose and all of his crew. Would hire again and strongly recommend."

"Paul and his team were amazing from start to finish! I hired him for some tree work as well as some lawn repair. When he showed up for a quote, he walked around the yard and educated me at the same time as making recommendations. He told me about the types of trees, which branches he would remove, and the exact reason why. He told me about the various options for seeding and composting and the benefits of each. When they actually came to do the work, they went above and beyond. While pruning, they had some extra manpower and asked if I would like all of the hedges and bushes cleaned up at the same time. When they did the lawn, there was some extra compost so they expanded the area that was originally discussed. The price was completely reasonable and everything turned out just as expected if not better. I highly recommend their services and I will definitely hire again in the future."

"Adam called me immediately and met me that same day. I hired the company and they cut my grass that same day. They used a ride on mower and my land is uneven so some areas were shorter than others. Two days later they spread 10 yards of hemlock mulch and recut some areas of my grass with push mower. They will use a push mower in the future. My yard now looks beautifully landscaped. Communication is definately key with this company. They aim to please!!"

"The team at Pablo's did exactly what I asked: left certain plants alone while pruning and trimming others. I've had some horrible experiences with other landscapers but this team knew what they were doing. I will for sure hire them again!"

"I contacted Jose Roberto and he responded immediately and got the job done the next day. He has an excellent team of workers and he personally works and supervises them to complete the work on time. He did a perfect job of cleaning the yard of overgrown weeds and edging all the beds and mulching them. very happy with the quick responses and the quality of work done in a timely manner. I will hire him again and recommend him highly."

"The team was punctual and did a great job pulling a very overgrown area for weeds. They worked independently and distinguished between the bushes and the weeds very well. The bushes look great now that they can breath. They also hauled all the trimmings. They came when they said they would and charged a fair price. I would definitely hire them next time I have a yard job."

"Rhino's Landscaping was quite responsive answering my request the same day it was submitted to Angie. I received multiple quotes and met with several contractors and I selected Rhino's. I was not disappointed as Rhino's showed up on time as promised and performed the tree removal quickly and safely. All the debris from the tree was cleaned up and removed completely. I will hire Rhino's for my next tree removal or landscaping project without hesitation."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

Burning a tree stump can be effective, but it comes with safety considerations and isn’t always best for every situation. It's essential to check local regulations and assess the safety risks involved. Stumps that are near wooden structures or other non-moveable flammable objects aren’t good candidates for burning due to the risk of the fire spreading. Alternatives like grinding or a DIY stump rotting project might be safer and quicker for getting the job done.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Leaf removal costs between $400 and $1,000 per acre on average. Nationally, the cost of leaf removal averages about $350. Cost factors for this project include lawn size, leaf removal method, tree density, location, and the time required to do the job. If your lawn removal service charges based on lawn size, you can expect to pay $0.02 to $0.10 per square foot.

Costs reflect the size of the tree or shrub, the complexity of the task, location accessibility, and disposal needs, and comprehensive quotes vary accordingly.
