Oregon Tree Care earned a spot in our list by providing services that go beyond our standards of quality service. Even most of their clients will agree with us because our survey showed that they’re highly satisfied with their work.

Starting off with their range of services, they offer everything from tree removal and tree cabling to arborist reports. With these offerings in store for clients, we think they’re a good choice for all tree-related concerns.

What makes them different from the rest is their ability to respond to emergency needs. So for instance, if your area suffered through a storm, you can easily contact the company to deal with the fallen trees surrounding your home.

These timely responses were made possible, as we’ve assessed, by their huge set of equipment. They have especially designed machines like pulley systems that allow the job to get done in a fast and safe manner.

However, these top-notch pieces of machinery weren’t enough to completely get rid of every branch or debris within the job site. But, if we’re looking back into their most recent projects, they’ve seemed to have gotten better over time.

Of course, their services won’t be possible without their certified arborists who have varying experiences and specialties. And as a bonus, we do think they’re super friendly guys who you’d just love to work with.

Urban Forest Pro has been around for more than 20 years, so it’s really no surprise that they’re quite popular. In fact, if you just look around using review lists (like this one) you’ll find its name in more than just one collection.

And we’re including the company on ours for almost the same exact reasons – reliable tree care services and experience. Plus, it’s a full-service company so there’s no issue regarding what it can and can’t offer as of writing.

Now, moving on to experience, we obviously have high respect for their professionals who are either ISA Certified Arborists or ISA Board Certified Master Arborists. In general, the team’s specialty trees include Japanese maples and pines.

By the way, the company says that their arborists are trained in the latest high-climbing techniques. This perhaps explains why they’re able to get the job done in a timely manner as past clients attested to in the survey.

But while they hit the bull’s eye when it comes to timeliness, they’re not exactly perfect in service quality. To be fair though, complaints containing dissatisfied remarks are normal (and for the record, we found these to be 4-year-old reports).

Finally, they also offer an emergency tree removal service which is just as good as you’d think it is. In the past, they’ve handled large-scale projects, so we’re a bit confident when we say that they can deal with just about anything.

A family-owned business, Honl Tree Care Inc. has maintained the spirit of customer connection that we love. But it’s just one of the many things that earned our favor – most of what we like about them has to do with their services.

Similar to other companies on our list, the company also offers complete tree services. To give you an idea, they do tree planting consultations, arborist reports, hazardous tree evaluations, and more depending on what you need.

The quality of its services relies mostly on the experience of both its founders and the professionals within the team. One of the owners is an ISA-certified arborist who is very active in the tree community (providing care for over 8,000 street trees).

The rest of the staff have had varying experiences and educational backgrounds. But what matters to us is that the majority are ISA-Certified arborists, plus the fact they specialize in various types of trees.

As we said, comments of dissatisfaction is normal since not all jobs end up being 100% perfect. And that’s the minor issue related to this company, although if we narrow it down to their recent projects, the complaints seem to cease.

Lastly, we like that they do have a client hub that you can access via their website (it’s available for new clients). It offers a lot in terms of convenience in case you want to go long-term with these people.

The word “samsara” carries many different meanings, but for Samsara Tree Care, the process of life and death in trees can be expressed in arbor culture. With that in mind, we believe that they could be a great option for you in terms of honest and ethical tree work.

With them being one of Portland’s leading tree care providers, we anticipated that they would exceed our expectations – and they did during our trial job. Not to mention, they deliver affordable and professional tree services, which is a natural plus.

In line with that, the business currently offers financing options (with Wisetack) to bring more purchasing options. They have this myriad of factors that they consider in quoting that can be done during initial site visits, so you can look into that.

When it comes to the services they offer, we love the tree pruning approach they have. Specifically, their pruning practices are current with the ANSI A300 standard (which is the tree care industry standard in the USA), so it’s safe to say your tree is in good hands.

Not only that, the equipment they use for the said service is ethically sterilized to prevent the transfer of any pathogens from tree to tree. This is an important factor for us since it fends off the transfer of possible diseases to other plants and trees that can be harmful.

Lastly, you can also ring them for any removal services – be it a tree, stump, or any hazardous objects. Like their competitors, they also do free estimation, and booking of appointments is available online, however, they are often fully-booked which is the only drawback we see.

Although Mossy Tree Care was only established in 2018, its owners have over 20 years of combined experience. That is why Mossy’s business side of things and its field operations are top-level and we certainly approved of it.

For starters, they take into account every assessment they do to specifically provide the needs of each tree and shrub. This comes with the assistance of obtaining all applicable permits for tree works (pruning and removal).

Seeing that they are open for business 24 hours, they are definitely available for emergency tree services (hanging or fallen trees or limbs due to weather events). Unfortunately, we’ve heard of minor issues regarding their response due to them having not enough workers.

Fortunately,  they may have a limited number of arborists but they sure are experienced and well trained. This gives us and their customers confidence that only certified arborists get their hands on the work they do.

On top of that, feedback has shown that they are also reliable for real-time solutions and helpful with suggestions. Plus, previous clients attested to their friendly rates (at least for tree removal) compared to other quotes they got that were twice the amount.

Customers can also expect their property to be cleaned by the crew after their work along with the promise of proper maintenance to bring client satisfaction. All these and their five-star Yelp rate, in our opinion, definitely reflected their team of qualified tree care professionals.

All Around Arbor Tree Care is a company that provides clients with a good variety of tree removal services both during emergencies or planned appointments. With over 15 years of experience in the field, they are among Portland’s most trusted tree service providers.

We like that they keep up-to-date when it comes to the latest techniques, skills, and information in the arbor field and industry.

Furthermore, the team also makes use of highly new and innovative equipment that can ensure both quality control and efficiency on the job.

Note though that their services don’t have any rates readily available on their website so clients may need to inquire with them first for their specific concerns.

Overall, with their professional and amicable employees, licensed and insured services, and highly versatile packages, we recommend them to clients in the area looking for arborist services.
