"Jay Cotton, owner of Angry Beaver Tree Service in New Albany, MS and his employee, Shane, did an excellent job of cutting up huge limbs which were falling from a very old tree. They were endangering my home. Shane climbed to the very top to cut some that were hanging precariously. They cut up the big limbs for firewood and stacked it neatly in a very timely manner. The cost to me extremely reasonable and I would highly recommend them!"

"We did a lot of research to compare pricing and the quality of work because we have had other jobs that we contracted out that we were not happy with and everyone I spoke to said he did a great job. I think its because he is passionate about his work."

"Had an excellent experience with NA Tree Service. Nathan came to the house to provide an estimate for the work to be done, and he came back the next day and completed the tree removal project in an efficient, timely matter and at a reasonable cost for the work done. Would recommend NA Tree Service for any tree work you may need done."

"Mj did a great job clearing off my acre of land. It was a massive hill impossibile to build on and now it's all leveled and opened up, banks are sloped properly and efficiently. His bid was very reasonable and cheaper than most and he did an outstanding job with a great attitude about everything and was done in less than a week. I would highly recommend him to anyone"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

The recovery time for pruning depends on how much you prune, the species of tree, and how well you care for it afterward. All trees grow new wood and often sprout additional branches after pruning. Ideally, trees should recover from normal pruning after one or two years. Heavy pruning or slow-growing trees may take several years to fully recover.

You may wonder whether tree removal is tax deductible: Tree removal is not tax-deductible for homeowners unless it's related to a federally declared disaster. In that case, the cost may qualify as a casualty loss. However, if you own a commercial property, like a rental home, tree removal could be deductible if it's necessary for safety, maintenance, or part of a larger capital improvement project, and you must hire a professional tree removal service and keep documentation. Always consult a tax professional beforehand to see if you qualify.

A general rule is that trees need 10 gallons of water for each inch of the tree’s diameter. For large trees, that can amount to approximately 160 gallons of water or more. Watering big trees to this extent can take quite a bit of time using a hose. For this reason, you may consider installing a soaker hose or sprinkler system to make the job easier.  

Firewood tends to be cheaper during the spring and summer. When the demand for firewood is lower during these seasons, many firewood companies offer lower prices and added discounts. In addition, the supply of firewood is typically higher in these months, meaning the quality is typically higher as well.
