"Quote was accurate, arrived on time, very responsive to every call made, great care was made to not damage house or shed during tree removal, some difficult looking cuts made them look easy. Little over 8K for 6 trees removed, and I’m pleased that they are gone. Good amount of ground up tree stump material to look at now. So the tree removal project was a success. Thank you!"

"Got a quote on Monday and she told me they could remove it Tuesday. The large tree was down and the stump was ground below ground level Tuesday afternoon just as promised. They ground the whole tree in their chipper and now I have a large pile of free mulch. Everyone was friendly and hard working. I was amazed how they were able to have everything done in three hours as hot as it was. They will be who I call first."

"Workers showed without stump grind, the main tree we needed removed was not touched, our 2 neighboring yards plus ours were left with damage to grass area. Our neighbor and us called for resolution with no responses from owner or workers. Workers took extended breaks sitting around when others were removing waste from yard. Wires were ripped from outside shed causing loss of power and small damage to an outside workshop. Paid in full because work was done and made the mistake of assuming owner would correct damage to yard but sadly no response, find this unprofessional for said reasons will finish yard with another company."

"Daniel showed up on time for an estimate on initial yard cleanup and maintenance and I was pleased with the quote and he started the same day. We live on an acre lot and our yard looked great when he finished, we have a lot of limbs that fall and he cleaned everything up and all left over leaves from the fall. He even quoted us a very reasonable price to cut up and remove a tree that fell in our back yard and we hired him for bi-weekly maintenance. I highly recommend this business to tree work or lawn care."

"Whack em and Stack em was very quick in calling us back when we called inquiring about their services. They were competitive with their pricing: and better priced than most tree services. The estimator, Bert, came out twice for an estimate and was always on time, very punctual. The crew that removed the tree was punctual as well. They quickly, efficiently, and safely removed the Water Oak tree in our backyard that was in a tight spot...close to our house, backyard fence, other trees, bird feeders and plants. They dropped the tree on a dime. We will use Whack em and Stack em again for any tree service needs in the future."

"Great guys that are respectable, funny, and polite. They also did a wonderful job cutting down the tree I need removed. They cleaned up after themselves and they are reasonably priced. Would hire then again in a heartbeat."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in North Charleston, SC

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.
