i love when they ask you to add a removal at the end of the day that would take like four or five hours. Yea no problem lady, we'll just stay here till like 10 oclock tonight for the same price. hahaha.
 
One of my favorite comes from the little ones (After my dad or I get to the top of the tree and the other takes the ladder down) "Mom/Dad how are they going to get down?"
 
I need to get a giant spruce of at least 10mtrs removed

The tree needs to be reduced (topped) it takes 20 min of sunshine away.

The neighbors tree needs to be topped it takes 20 min of sunshine away

I put on my spikes to remove some spruce trees for my neighbor...his son was helping haul branches to the trash from one i had flopped and asked if the spikes were to give me traction on the lawn...i said just watch, and went up the tree and he had an "AH HA" moment...this kid was in his early 20s

During outdoor labs at school, we get this constantly:

"Do you need more practice? I have a tree I need (removed, pruned, etc.)"

Sure I'll be right over..

*We usually do jobs that benefit ALL tax payers of the city (ie, parks, street trees, etc.)
 
What we get a lot is someone walking by they stop and ask "how much does it cost to cut a tree down" Me- every tree is diffrent it all depends on the tree location, size, speices, acsess points ex..... them- so how much does it cost then?
 
Ok, Here is the one that tops them all......

"Yeah,,, I was calling because I have a 120 year old oak growing over 4 houses, 4 fences, 2 powerlines, a dog house, a tool shed, and playset. Anyway, I wanted to know how much you would pay me to come and take it down if I give you the wood?"

(I was supprised no one posted that one.....)
 
That's pretty good danielson. I had a guy come ask me to take down a boxelder tree that feel on his shed I told him I would do it by the hour. He said o your not going to do it for free you can have all the wood and brush
 
True story---This one was actually the salesman's Greg's fault.

After spending ALL DAY roping down 15 Pines around the edge of a yard which was made TIGHT because of the perfectly shaped dogwood planted right in the middle, the client comes out and says.......

"By the way............"

Well, you KNOW what the client said.....And my men were PISSED at Greg that day!!
