We don't get this option too often, but a lot of repeat customers in our area don't mind doing the bucking or clearing brush.Regardless that leaf is in the Red Oak species and the tree really looks to be a Silver maple. 3k to remove that tree would not be considered high where I live. The fact they want to charge more to leave the wood is totally backwards to me. It’s way less work to be able to piece a tree apart and do zero clean up… I wish I had that option
"
Thats hi!!!!!Higher, lower?
Idk, "that's what she said."
She's near the shore.
Right? Obviously doesn't matter to the OPoster what we have to say.
If the OP gets three more bids that are in the same ball park then it is probably the going rate fair or not. I just know there is no way in hell any reputable tree service would bid a job higher to leave the wood there. That is senseless. When I have to have a trees taken down at rental properties they are tickled that they do not have to remove it nor grind the stump.
Tree people over analyzing their last bid and homeowners that don't know what the hell their talking about.
No other good threads to bicker over...
It's just that they get so carried away with all kinds of assumed stuff non-stop! No matter what !
It is a yard tree that needs to come down. The species is irrelevant. The first guy bidding is a joke. Get more bids select one. Done
I just purchased a house in Ironwood Mi the UP, there's a massive tree in the yard that's leaning towards the garage, I was Quoted $3000.00 to remove it but they want to charge me more if I keep the wood to sell or use for my own crafting. This makes me believe it has a lot of value, the to own charges a huge fee for commercial disposal.I'm sure it's some kind of Oak but I don't know what kind? I attached photos of the tree and a leaf from it. It's got it be over 100' tall and has a dangerous leaning i'm worried about, my 2 car garage and Camper are in it's pathcan anyone tell me what species it is and if it has any value to sell to someone that would pay me to harvest it? If you're not familiar with Ironwood it's right next to Hurley Wisconsin and about 10 miles from the lake Superior shore. I really hate to pay someone $3k that might make 10 X that reselling it. Any companies I can contact that might buy it? There are also 2 evergreen trees that also need removal because of ones height at least 200' it's roots are growing into my garage floor and holding the door open enough that critters are getting in I just watched a chipmunk running under teg door while it's closed. The other is about 80' tall and right on a corner of my homes foundation .
