I had Clancy's come out for tree removal. He was super knowledgeable and gave me 2 pricing options. $800 to drop the tree leaving limbs in 4ft-6ft sections I'd be responsible for or $1200 for dropping it and cutting everything into manageable 16" sections that I could carry. I opted for the $800 and was going to have help chopping it up. When payment was requested he told me $1200. I reminded him I hired him for the $800 option. He said if that was the case they wouldn't have made smaller cuts and his guys would've been done quicker and he had to pay his guys. The guys were still working so I gave him the $400 on top of the $800 I originally agreed to. After payment they left....and While some of the limbs were in 16" - 2ft sections....all of the brush was 4-6ft sections and a lot of the bigger branches were well over 16". THEN the trunk (which is massive....it was a 150 year old white oak tree) they dropped in 2 separate 6ft sections. The damage to my yard was unbelievable. They made 4 cuts into this 6ft trunk but the cuts didn't even go all the way through and the entire thing was stuck in the ground. I had to hire another company to come out and fix the mess I was left with and to get rid of the huge trunks because it was not movable without machinery. I feel like because I even went ahead and paid the extra $400 for them making smaller sections....they should have completed the job the correct way. For leaving me with the mess they did, I should've only had to pay the $800. So I paid $1,200 for a $800 job and on top of that I had to hire a separate company which cost me another $500. Now the owner is very friendly and knowledgeable, I will give them that. I just feel like I was done wrong in this business transaction. I'll attach pictures of what I was left with (when everything should've been cut into 16" sections)

A neighbor of mine told me that he had used Tru Fast Tree service to remove a tree, and that he would use them again. I had them come out and give me an estimate, which they do free of charge. Their bid was the best I received, so I accepted their proposal. Along with their proposal, they included a copy of their liability insurance, which is a must for me. Once I accepted the proposal, I was given a date to have the work done and it was placed on their calendar. The crew arrived just before 11 a.m. Sawyer and I walked around to the backyard to take a look at the work to be done. I was somewhat surprised when Sawyer told me they’d have the tree down by 1. They dropped it at 12:31. They took great care to minimize any damage from falling limbs. In fact, there was no damage at all. There were 5 members in total working on the project. They emphasize safety and took all necessary safety precautions. They removed all of the debris and begun grinding the stump below the grade of the lawn. Upon completing the stump grinding they scooped up the excess material and hauled it away. They raked the lawn and smoothed out the area where the stump was ground. They used leaf blowers to blow off my drive way as well as the roadway in front of my house. They were completely done in 3.5 hours. This was a 22 year old sweet gum tree that we planted in 2002. We will definitely consider Tru Fast Tree Service for any future tree service we might need. In fact I’m having them come back out this fall to give me a proposal on pruning the other trees in our yard. We recommend Tru Fast should you need a tree removed.

Arrived at the beginning of the window they said they would. Did more than I expected. These guys under promise and over deliver. They are my first call if I need tree service again.

These guys are fantastic!! They had quick response time for coming over for the evaluation/estimate. Gave me a date when they'd be here to take care of the tree and showed up right on schedule. My tree had been "trimmed" in the past by someone that didn't know what they were doing. It wasn't looking healthy, a lot of dead up in it. They cleaned out all the dead and cut the stubbs off so the tree could heal properly. It's beautiful. They did a fantastic job!! And the clean up afterwards was perfect.
