"Mr. Rantz is a friendly, down-to-earth guy who definitely knows how to get rid of a tree stump. Severe storms rolled through NW Springfield in late April 2025. Unfortunately, we had to have a maple tree cut down. The tree company’s guy wanted $1150 to grind the stump and haul the sawdust. Mr. Rantz did it for $600 and did as thorough a job as I could’ve asked for. Five out of five stars. If you need to get rid of a stump on your property, hire Sam Rantz’s Stump Grinding - you’ll be glad you did."

"Overall a very good experience. Andy, the owner, supervised 3 workers: they were punctual, professional, did what we agreed and left the area tidy. The estimate was what I paid and that seemed a fair price according to my research. I would definately use this company again.

"I'm very impressed and extremely pleased with Brandon's Tree Service! Not only did Brandon and his co-worker do an excellent job trimming my shrubbery and then cleaning up afterwards (all for a very reasonable price), but Brandon did a wonderful job communicating with me. I especially appreciated his reliability - he called when he said he would and showed up as scheduled. That hasn't been my experience in the past with several other companies in my area and I'm sorry now that I didn't reach out to Anji's from the very beginning. I would definitely recommend Brandon's Tree Service!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A dead tree should always be cut down, because it could fall and cause injuries or damage, and it can also attract insects like carpenter ants. A tree that’s diseased beyond repair should also be cut down, but it’s not always easy for a homeowner to tell. Signs of disease include dying branches, a hollow trunk, leaning, and discolored or missing leaves, but your best bet is to hire a local arborist who can evaluate the tree and tell you if it can be saved or should be cut down.

You may need permission to take a tree down. Check with your local ordinances about rules regarding tree removal and to gain any necessary permits. Check with your local ordinances or the fire department if you plan to burn the stump. Make sure you have all the steps in place before removing the tree, or contact a local tree removal service.

Yes, forestry mulching can grind stumps, but the level of effectiveness depends on the equipment used. Drum mulchers can break down smaller stumps, but larger or deep-rooted stumps may require a dedicated stump grinder for complete removal. If full stump removal is necessary for replanting or construction, additional excavation may be needed. Always check with your forestry mulching provider to confirm whether they offer stump grinding and if their equipment is suitable for your specific needs.

While the trees in your backyard are good for the environment and look beautiful, they could present a danger to your home under the wrong circumstances. This task is typically beyond the capabilities of the average homeowner due to its dangerous nature, so it’s best to leave this task to a professional. In some cities, it’s even illegal to remove a tree yourself.

You can hire a professional arborist or tree removal service to cut down a tree to ensure safety, prevent property damage, and comply with all the local regulations. It’s highly advisable to always hire a professional, as tree removal can be extremely dangerous, especially for large or damaged trees. Certified arborists or tree removal experts have the proper equipment, training, and insurance to do the job safely and efficiently. They can also handle cleanup, stump removal, and obtaining the necessary permits.
