Tree trimming service - difference?
I need some tree service done to a property. Two black olive trees need
pruning/trimming/cleaning, one mango tree and oak tree was severly damaged by hurricane Wilma to the point they are beyond recovery need to be cut down and removed. A bottle brush that toppled need to be removed also. I looked up three companies in the yellow pages and asked them to provide a free estimate. Company 1: Clean/prune black olive tree: $450 per tree Cut down damaged oak: $350 Cut down mango: $350 Cut down bottle brush: $200 Haul & disposal: $800 Total: $2600 Company 2: Mango cut and haul: $850 Oak cut and haul: $150 Black olives trim: $750 each Bottle brush cut and haul: $150 Total: $2650 Company 3: Quoted me a lump sum of $1000 to do everything include hauling away. Company 1 and 2 have pretty close bottom line. But look at the trim fee for the black olives, $450 vs $850 each, why such drastic difference? and company 3? So much cheaper? How do I make comparisons? I have no knowledge of any of these companies? Don't know if they are reputable or not. Any advise on questions to ask them? MC - location in Miami, FL zone 10 |
