"Matt and his crew were beyond amazing. They were incredibly hard working, meticulous, friendly, and responsive. Elegant tree removed 16 trees and pruned many others, and the results are better than we even anticipated! We'd hire Matt again and recommend him 100%."

"I got quoted a fair price for cutting down a big oak tree with clean up and stump grinding, they actually were able to do the job a week earlier than I expected and had the job done in a little more than a day, friendly crew and great clean up, they even ground down a smaller stump I had in my yard from a removal done years ago for no extra charge, highly recommend Brizzy's"

"He was supposed to return when the weather warmed to remove the stump. I called him and scheduled the day, he did not show up. Update: Bill apologized for forgetting our previous appointment, and completed the work on June 9th. I am pleased with the work the company did. More than that, I appreciate his honest explanation."

"They were very professional and friendly.  They cut our tree down with no problems.  The only minor drawback was that they came on Wednesday, 9/25/2013 and weren't able to cut the tree down due to bees.  The owner, Jaime, said he would be back on Thursday with bee spray.  He called me on Thursday and said that he was stuck at this one job but he would try to get to my house early evening.  That afternoon, we decided that he would come on Friday, 9/27/2013 instead since the job he was on was taking the entire day.  Jaime was very apologetic about the delay, which I appreciated.  I understand that in life things happen that are out of our control.
I would recommend Conklin's.  Their prices are very fair and honest.  We had another estimate that was three times as much as Conklin's.

FAQs for tree stump removal projects in Scranton, PA

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.
