We have lived in our home for 6 years and never once trimmed our huge tree in the front yard. We have had numerous companies ask us if they could trim it...for way too much $$$$. We figured we could do it ourselves. It was an adventure, and unfortunately I forgot to take "before and after" pictures. Let me just say it sure looks a lot better.
Shawn took a day off of work, the missionaries also came and helped us. We started at 9:30 a.m. and finished about 5:30 p.m. We had a huge pile on the side of our house. The next day the "Green waste bin" came. It took us and our neighbor a good 3 hours just to put all the limbs in it.
I did learn a valuable lesson...that night I figured I deserved a hot bubble bath, I used the sea salt scrub I had, it smells wonderful...that is when I learned the literal meaning of "pouring salt in your wounds". I had no idea that I had so many scratches on my arms. It killed!!!
So, if you need a big tree trimmed...do not call us :)
It might have been worth all the $$$ to have someone else do it.
