"They were a joy to work with! Very professional crew of five, each focused on his task in the cutting down of a huge 28 1/2 inch diameter pine and the topping of another pine. Both trees were very close to a building. Go Green showed up at 7:45a.m. and were pulling out the drive at 11:45a.m. leaving a completely cleaned up area behind. I would highly recommend them."

"Elijah and his helper showed up when they said they would. Cut the broken limbs out of my tree, and then cut them all up and put them in their truck. Then they raked up the entire front yard and got all the little broken sticks and leaves. These guys did a really good job and I would definitely hire them again for any tree work."

Customers say: Quick response

"They did a great job at a fair price. We had them remove several Hackberry trees and grind the stumps. They also removed several branches from other trees that were overhanging the house and power lines. Excellent work and they pulled it off in a single day! Highly recommended!"

"A large ice storm in Oklahoma City damaged a number of trees on our property.  Ours was just one of many, many neighborhoods hit hard by this storm.  So the clean up workload was enormous in our area.  
We wanted to find not only a debris removal service, but someone who would know what to do in order to preserve the trees that could be saved.  Ideally, we wanted an arborist.  We found Earth & Arbor on Angie's List and got in touch with them.  
Understandably, all the quality people in this line of work were extremely busy in the aftermath of such a major ice event.  I left a message with Earth & Arbor and a few other recommended services.  Caleb with Earth & Arbor was the first to return my call.  He was courteous on the phone but was very clear about how busy they were and how much of a delay there could be in doing the work.  He came by within a few days and gave his assessment of the damage and an estimate on the clean up.  Again, he emphasized how backed up they were with work, trying to deal with emergency situations first.  Ours certainly wasn't in that category.  
It did take quite a while to get to us but Caleb stayed in touch throughout the wait, which was greatly appreciated.  Once he and his crew got here they did quality work.  We lost a tree in our backyard and had significant debris all over our deck.  Earth & Arbor did a good job with all of it.  They gave us a fair price, including an Angie's List discount, and they handled themselves very professionally.  There were a few loose ends with the final clean up but nothing significant.
We like their work and really came to respect Caleb's honesty, expertise and his friendly demeanor.  We will be using Earth & Arbor in the future and highly recommend them, not just for tree trimming, but for maintaining a healthy landscape year round.

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

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.

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

It depends on where you live—but in most areas, leaves begin falling in September and continue falling until January or February. Warmer regions, such as Southern states, may see leaves fall a bit later in the calendar year. It also depends on the type of trees in your yard and their maturity. 

Full decorating services often provide rental trees for their Christmas packages, so you shouldn’t have any trouble finding one. However, individual interior decorators and others may not offer rented trees, so always check the specifics of their services before booking. Keep in mind that you’ll need to prepare the Christmas tree for pick-up shortly after the holidays.
