Tree Service Cleanup: What "Full Haul Away" Really Means (And Why Some Companies Leave Stumps/Logs Behind)

Full removal and cleanup is explicitly included in every written quote I issue—no hidden fees for standard jobs. That means: all branches and wood chipped or hauled to a licensed facility, stumps ground to 8–12" below grade (or removed if requested), sawdust/raking/blowing of all surfaces, and lawn furniture moved back exactly as found. Photos before, during, and after are standard.

Extra fees only apply if you want firewood stacked, stump grinding added later, or any extra work not discussed previously. Complaints about jagged stumps or logs dumped usually come from cash crews that underbid and then nickel-and-dime.

If you’re not happy with the cleanup, we come back free. Clients regularly post our before/afters because the yard looks better than when we arrived.
