Anytime your trees need a good trim...don't just go with the first tree trimmer who knocks on your front door. I picked up some good information from www.buzzle.com.
Here's a few tips/questions for potential tree trimmers...
*Request a copy of insurance papers, public liability and workers accident coverage.
*How they will access the job site? How they will remove the tree? Will they climb it or use a tower or perhaps a crane, etc. The condition of the tree may influence this decision as well as the site.
*How long will removal take?
*Is the climber a qualified persona and how experienced.
*What equipment do they have and are qualified to use (see crane question above)?
*How deep will the stump grind be? (Did you know there was a stump grind!?)
*Will all debris and wood be removed from the site? Is there extra cost for cleanup?
*There are many different ways to remove trees just as many different types of machinery and individuals skill levels. It can be difficult comparing competitors when you have limited knowledge about tree removal. One thing is for sure, be on the look out for inexperienced operators who want to see other quotes you’ve receive. Don’t show them the quotes, instead show them the door.

Nice information on the blog. Removing large trees is a mammoth process and only experienced arborists who are completely insured to perform this task. We need to take all necessary precautions while removing trees so that nearby buildings, electric wire and other obstacles are not damaged.
