"Axcobar should be your first choice for tree cutting and removal. Their service was outstanding in every way. Melvin responded in person to my emergency call after the recent tornado (microburst) in Olney took out six of the large, old trees in my yard. One of the trees was hanging over the deck and threatened to create more damage to my house if not skillfully removed. Axcobar showed up with a fabulous crew and a couple of trucks with shredders attached. These folks worked tirelessly over two days to cut, shred, and remove the trees that fell and the ones that were damaged and still standing. In addition, they removed all of the broken branches, twigs, and assorted debris in the area. We can not say enough good things about this service. Oh btw, their pricing was extremely competitive and fair. We will use them again and highly recommend them to others."

"Coreas Tree Services did an excellent job at our house. They removed a huge tree that was at risk of falling over and trimmed two large trees. The team worked in a safe and efficient manner and cleaned up all the mess afterwards. They were ready to adjust and make minor changes as needed. Roberto was very clear in his communications from the onset and explained the work that was done. Affordable price. Highly recommended."

"Great! Matt met me to see the trees I wanted to have removed, and I received an estimate shortly afterwards. The team took them down fast and asked if I was satisfied with the work before leaving. Very happy with the service"

"Shifflett Tree Service did an outstanding job on the trimming of our long-neglected trees and bushes. One boxwood was removed, azaleas trimmed and thinned, trees shaped up. Changed the entire facade of the house (the neighbors will be happy!). Especially noteworthy is that they came out in the big snow - much appreciated & that prevented even more damage under the weight. Why wait until spring? Get it done now and they will come right out to give an estimate and then return to do the actual work. Family-run and very easy to communicate with - they don't disappear - and they do a very professional job! A real gem in the DC & MD area...."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Opt for a barefoot tree. Pros harvest barefoot trees when they’re dormant (leafless). They shake the dirt from the root ball and pack it in moist material. 

These trees can cost half as much as the trees at your local nursery, and you can buy them online—so there’s a much wider selection. Just make sure you keep your barefoot tree cool until you’re ready to plant it.

For trimming trees, your best tool is a pair of pruning shears or loppers. Both options work best for branches that are under 3 inches in diameter. Trimming trees with a larger diameter may require a robust tool like a small chainsaw or a handsaw, so take into account your tree’s diameter when deciding between tools.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.

The ideal depth of a tree notch depends on the tree, but it should usually be between 20% and 25% of the tree’s depth. However, if the tree is leaning towards the direction of the notch, it can be cut more shallowly—at as little as 10% of the depth. When the tree is leaning away from the direction it needs to be felled, you can cut deeper, closer to 30%.

Light-bark trees are most notorious for producing lots of sap when wounded. These varieties include maples, birches, poplars, dogwoods, magnolias, and elms, and they will bleed more when the trees are dormant. That’s why it’s a good idea to prune them in the summer months rather than waiting until winter.
