"Benitez did a great job of taking care of our overgrown shrubbery and trees. They cleaned up all of our trees and removed the the cuttings. We had them grind down 6 stumps. They cleaned up everything leaving our yard looking better than it has been in years."

Customers say: Quick response

"I used Angie's List to research a tree stump service in my area. There were two. Mr. Morrisey responded within 30 minutes of my inquiring about receiving service! He was polite, professional, and very reasonable. That was a Saturday morning and by Monday mid-morning, I had 13 stumps removed off of our property! We were very pleased with the efficiency and reasonable prices Mr. Morrisey provided to us. Would hightly recommend this company!"

"They were very good at cutting the tree down then cutting the logs and hauling them off and cleaning up the grounds. The tree was a Maple and it was very large and awkwardly growing the climber was very experienced. I was very surprised at how fast they did the job."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Elizabeth City, NC

Always transport chainsaws with the engine off and chain brake engaged. Use the protective bar cover provided by the rental company to prevent accidental contact with the cutting chain. Position the chainsaw securely in your vehicle to prevent movement during transit, ideally in a truck bed or trunk rather than the passenger compartment. 

For gas models, ensure the fuel cap is tight and position the saw to minimize potential leakage. Keep the chainsaw away from passengers and other items that could be damaged.

Proper safety equipment is essential when operating any chainsaw. At minimum, you should have eye protection (safety glasses or a face shield), hearing protection (earplugs or earmuffs), cut-resistant gloves, chainsaw chaps or pants, and sturdy boots with good traction. 

Many rental facilities offer basic safety kits alongside chainsaw rentals. If you'll be using chainsaws regularly, investing in quality personal safety gear is advisable. Never operate a chainsaw without appropriate protective equipment, regardless of the job size.

While rental companies will rent chainsaws to beginners, inexperience significantly increases safety risks. If you've never used a chainsaw before, request a demonstration from the rental staff and thoroughly review the operator's manual before starting. Begin with smaller, more manageable cutting tasks to build comfort with the tool's operation. 

For significant cutting jobs, consider either taking a chainsaw safety course first or hiring professionals instead. The learning curve for safe chainsaw operation is steep, and caution is paramount.

If mechanical problems develop during your rental, immediately cease operation and contact the rental company. Most reputable rental businesses will either provide a replacement chainsaw or repair the equipment if the breakdown resulted from normal use rather than misuse. Document the issue with photographs when possible and maintain records of when you reported the problem. 

Having your rental agreement readily available when you call will expedite the resolution process. The rental company should adjust your rental period to account for any downtime.
