Choosing A Tree Service

Companies or individuals offering tree or shrub trimming, removals or pesticide applications in Greeley MUST be licensed by the City of Greeley.

A licensed tree trimming company must pass written and field examinations to show basic knowledge and competence in industry skills. They must also provide proof of insurance and bond to protect the customer and themselves. Licensed Pesticide applicators have a State Applicator's License.  Tips for finding a tree service:

 

 

 

 

• It is always a good idea to check with the contractor and their insurance agency to make certain the policy is current; also ask for job references.
• When receiving bids, make sure you ask for the same exact service from all prospective contractors.
• Tree contractors in Greeley are not allowed to "top" trees.
• "Topping" is a poor, unhealthy, and discouraged practice.
• Be aware of fly-by-night tree services and "door knockers." Reputable companies have all the work they need without going door to door.
• Never pay in advance.
• Contact the Better Business Bureau at 970-686-7722 for additional references.
• Wright Tree Service is the only company that may work within 10' of energized lines. Contact our office for more information.
