"Removal included two very large juniper trees. Also needed the removal of some medium size trees and extensive vegetation. Stump grinding was included. Kevin was very easy to work with. His crew did a professional job. Would absolutely hire him again."

"I asked Green Lane Tree Services to remove a huge, dying agave (century plant) with a house-high bloom that was tilting close to our utility wires. They worked carefully and even managed to get the stump out manually, without harming the surrounding succulents. They also took out an old plum tree that storms had brought down, doing the job without damaging any of the plantings around that tree (we decided together not to take the stump out in this instance due to the proximity of other plants -- they consulted me on each question that came up during the work). They pruned an out-of-control bougainvillea and cut down a couple very tall, but dead, cypress trees. Finally, they cleaned everything up perfectly, and even sawed the plum tree into logs for us. And to top it all off, they charged considerably less than the quote I got from another tree service."

"Amazing customer service and professionalism!!! Received an immediate response from Jose (on the weekend!!) after my inquiry to obtaining a price quote for 2 massive tree removals. Jose was on time to quote the removals, and immediately sent an email with the estimate and proof of insurance. (No other company even bothered to do this, which exemplifies P&J outstanding professionalism. We decided to go with P&J to remove our trees. DAY of tree removal: The tree removal crew was prompt, courteous, professional, and immediately started on the tree removal. They wore protective gear such as hard hats and high visibility vests. They started with the massive 20ft pine tree in the front yard, they meticulously started removing branches from the bottom to the top, there was even a guy who climbed the tree to make sure that the cut and branch drop was carefully planned as not to hit anything in its drop zone. Then it was off to the backyard to remove the 30ft eucalyptus tree. They did the exact same thing for the back yard as well. The task was so intriguing that even our neighbors commented on how good and skilled they were. Not one branch or debris fell anywhere other than where it was supposed to. There was even a fig tree next to eucalyptus tree that had a branch less than 2 inches away and they didnt even touch the fig tree. AMAZING JOB!!!!! The stumps were grinded to the ground and the crew cleaned up the area better than it was. THOROUGHLY IMPRESSED with their work AND professionalism."

"The site assessment and quote were extremely easy and transparent due to a slick app that itemizes the tree removal by type of tree/trunk diameter, with photos, then automatically generates a quote. The crew showed up right on time and were done on schedule. Super happy with the work and would recommend to anybody looking for tree removal services in the East Bay!"

"Rodrigo was a pleasure to work with. Super friendly. Very fast response. Fair prices. Did a fantastic job at trimming my trees, planting a new tree, and clearing out some trees I needed removed. As an added bonus, they cleaned up completely so that you could not even tell all of that work was done. I am referring them to my friends and will certainly hire them again."

"When I 1st moved into my home I bought earlier this year . EB tree care took out a huge dead tree from my backyard that was extremely overgrown could have damaged the house if it were to fall over with the condition it was in . They came in right away took care of it and even removed the stump. Great work and cleaned it up So well you’d never guess a tree was ever there ."

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Orinda, CA

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.
