While trees beautify your landscapes and have many environmental benefits, they can become hazardous to you and your home. At Randy’s we remove trees of all sizes and of all hazard levels in Short Hills. We have many bucket trucks with some extending up to 110 feet into the air to handle even the largest trees. We have the experience and equipment to help you safely deal with unwanted trees of all sizes. Please refer to Short Hills’s tree ordinance to determine if a permit is needed.

From the initial call that I made to their business they were professional, courteous and highly responsive. The workers cleaned my yard, installed a fence and removed a tree. Throughout the project, they maintained cleanliness and professionalism. They even cleaned debris that had blown from my yard to my neighbors yard. You cannot go wrong with this company! Awesome work!

Tree Pruning & Trimming

When you neglect your trees by not regularly pruning them, the nutrients are wasted on weak parts, which deprive the healthy parts of what they need to grow. Strategic pruning and trimming will give your trees nice form and shape while getting rid of the weak limbs. This can prevent potential damage to your property during storms or heavy winds, saving you thousands on repairs. Randy will identify high-risk trees during your consultation and recommend solutions.

Randy and team was extremely professional, well priced and did exactly what they said they would do. I would recommend them to anyone who needs stumps or tree removed.

Stump Grinding & Removal

Stumps are dangerous to keep in your yard, especially if you have kids. Removing them will not only make it safer, but also improve the appearance of your yard. The most common and cost-effective stump removal method is to grind them using a stump grinder. Stumps can also be removed by excavating them. Regardless of whichever stump removal procedure you decide, Randy’s takes care of calling 811 for your utilities to be marked out before the day of the job. This will prevent breaking any pipes that may run through your stump.
