So you have a dead tree in your yard? If you've ever shopped for service in regards to tree removal service in the Columbia South Carolina Area, you know that the bids for cutting down the tree and removing the tree can be very different.
One bid may be for the total removal of the tree, the grinding of the stump (you may have seen a stump grinding service rolling around before), and of course the surgical removal of the tree (cutting down without damaging anything!). This bid for tree removal would be significantly higher than the bid to simply "drop" the tree.
If you drop the tree where it stands and do not grind the stump, the cost to remove the tree will be roughly 1/5th of the cost of the total removal package. This option may be attractive to folks who don't care about the appearance - they just want the risk removed. Others may have the resources and manpower to haul off the downed tree, but lack the resources and skill to physically cut down the tree.
Whatever your choice in tree service in the Greater Columbia South Carolina Area, make sure that the company doing the work is licensed in your city/town, is insured, and has a good track record where safety is concerned.
