The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and whoever captures souls is wise

I have nothing but good things to say about Big River Tree Service! Curt and his guys were so helpful and accommodating! I will never use another Tree Service Company as long as Big Tree Service is around!

Thanks to the rain it took a little longer to get our tree down, but Big River Tree Service did exactly what they said they'd do. Cut it down, hauled it away, and cleaned up the mess. I highly recommend them.

One way or another, they got this gigantic silver maple out of the yard, and taken away. Above and beyond. 👍

Curtis and his crew are gearing up to do their 3rd job for us. They are fair, friendly, quick, and clean. I won't use anybody else for tree work. Highly recommend!

When my neighbor's tree fell it was partially in my yard. I recommended BRTS to my neighbor and he chose them. Even though it wasn't my job, the professional way Curtis and crew handled the situation is what made their service stand out. They neatly piled the wood so that I could use it in my fire pit at a later date. I highly recommend BRTS based on price, response time and unique service requests that make him stand out from his competitors.
