"We received an estimate quickly and thought the price was very reasonable. The crew came on time, but the crane was held up. Rather than wait for the crane, they started climbing the trees and cutting away. It made more work for them, but they did what they had to do. The crane came after about and hour and half. After that, the job moved right along. After trees were removed, stumps were ground down. Then everything was cleaned up. The entire job was fabulous. Neighbors enjoyed watching too. The yard was left in good shape considering the amount of work that was done. We would recommend Arbortech to anyone needing tree work."

"AAA Tree Pros did an excellent job removing 2 diseased ash trees from our property. They offered a fair price, scheduled the work very quickly, and handled everything safely and professionally. The crew removed the trees, hauled away all the wood, and ground the stumps thoroughly. The cleanup was great as well. Very happy with the service and would definitely recommend them."

"Jim contacted me within minutes of my request. He gave me the quote over the phone. He had an opening in his schedule and came out within 2 hours. Even though I had not prepped the stump properly, he gave me a hand and got the job done on the spot. He was professional, very helpful and friendly. Thank you, Jim! We will recommend him highly!"

"I had 4 tree services come by for estimates. All Seasons was the most reasonable plus they were recommended by a friend.  They were very quick to respond and were able to do the job just a few days after the estimate. Everything looked great and they didn't leave a mess.

"On August 22nd, the Perfect Landscape Tree & Services crew spent the entire day removing six sizable trees from our yard under the supervision of Rod and Ryan. The exhausting work was executed with utmost skill and experience requiring a crane and bobcat. All this work was accomplished without damage or delay. The crew returned two days later to grind out the stumps, cover their holes with dirt refill, then level the areas with good top soil, and raking up the yard. We highly recommend the work of Perfect Landscape. They are thoroughly professional. Great people to work with — five stars on all counts. We most certainly would return to them for additional work in the future. David & Anne Bloomington, MN"

"On 8/9/21 Travis, the South crew manager for Minnesota Tree Experts approached our home and said his crew was in the area and wondered if we had any need for his company’s services. As it turned out, we needed several tasks performed. I took him around the property and he offered a very fair price to remove a tree and grind the stump, trim several hedges, and trim several trees. He offered a very fair price and I accepted. His crew (Tuff and the other 4 members) worked quickly and efficiently and with awesome tools to complete the work and do an amazing clean up job. I would strongly recommend this crew to any homeowner who desires quality work done at a fair price, with the right tools, in an efficient manner, and with great cleanup following the job. Thanks Travis - you and your crew were absolutely fantastic!! Kevin Engstrom, Apple Valley, MN"

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Howard Lake, MN

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.
