ArboristSite Operative
Recently I was contacted by these folks about becoming one of their sub-contractors. Has anyone had direct (or indirect) experience with them? What is their reputation?
Has anyone had experience with TREEJOB.com out of Atlanta, GA?

We work for them occasionally. It's an okay deal if you like to explain to the customer why you are leaving a huge debris pile on their yard. If all your equipment is paid for and you have cheap labor (which I don't) you can make some money. The salesmen bid the jobs and you get a cut, so you have to knock out some work with the understanding that they are not counting on referral business. We do mostly trim jobs for them because it seems to be easier all the way around.

didn't go to the picnic, evidently they make some money doing disaster work, though. we have toyed with the idea of joining them on the next big one...
I was impressed with their organization
I've had an opportunity to work with these guys, and I must say I'm impressed. They've been doing this for a while now and seem to have it down to an art. I've met the owners, and they are determined to be the best in their industry.
Their teams are well organized and make good money during the week. They are building the largest network of first responders for major storms that I have ever seen. If there is a major storm, you will see them there first. This seems to be where the big money is. I'm proud to say my name is on the list for this storm season.

I would take this whole thread and wipe my ### with it I think the OP is also selling something for them notice how he hasn't answered any responses and the other guy as well 2 troll spammers and I hope the mods make that name the same as if I tried to curse or mention another tree site , just saying Just another example of scum bags treating this industry like a used ###### taking what they can and driving down the prices OF THE ENTIRE MARKET LEAVING AWFUL tastes in the mouths of there customers ... Almost making having a contractor come and do work no different than a root canal with no numbing.....

101,
"I would take this whole thread and wipe my......."
I can't say I could ever use your character as a positive reference tool to do a better job taking care of a tree except for maybe the one in the back of your trucks. Maybe I could use you as something to make them realize my integrity is intact.
And who knows who that grinman is, but who has all of the time in the world to reply to every single responder here. Just do you what you would do on a forum, and get back to work. Crikey!!! :msp_thumbup:

LXT gets a call about some tree work:
"Now is that the best you can do, Mr......er...um.......LXT? You promise a crazy, drunk guy will come to my home, and charge me for the best tree services there are to offer??? Where do I sign?
I am just the person who knows that you are the person who deserves this money."LXT, just step down out of the businesses in general. You aren't anyone people want to see running a business in the first place. Let the next generation take over the role. You don't even have a legitimate reason to say anything you just said. If you can't manage why you say what you say around here, how are you a reputable service owner? Why..... because you do things dirtier???? That is about what you meant in that post. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Not only do you suck at tree work............But you cant read either!!! LMFAO ...for the action.....C`mon you really are the owner of a gay bar & thought we could help you go straight uh? psst..........we cant! we wouldnt & we dont like you!!!!!! FTA is slang for #### the azz

Whoooooaaaaaaa, dude. You're making big ripples in the world wide web, bro. :blob6:
EEEEEEEE! OOOOOOOO! EEEEEEEE! OOOOOOOO!
Do you hear that, LFT?
EEEEEEEE! OOOOOOOO! EEEEEEEE! OOOOOOOO!
I'm cleaning the dust off the computer screen. There was a tiny dust speck stopping me from doing anything. It was about 6 or 7 times bigger than your sentiments that I'm imagining are right there between your ears at this very moment. You might dust out that gray jello in your head, 5150. Some of those particles are blocking my views around here.
Thank you for participating.

I am always leery and I mean leery of these types of operations. I smell a scam simply I don't care to be subcontracted by a company I don't know anything about. These types of operations have been going on for years. Usually there is some type of fee to pay to get on their list. Not good.
Same type of thing was going on in the fencing industry. Everything was fine in the beggining for the new guy then the cut or paychecks started coming in slower and later. They just kept stringing the new guy along kind of like the carrot on a stick for the rabbitt. Wasn't long before the money stopped coming. The big guy hung the little guy out to dry. The big company got paid and stuck the small guy in the end for materials and labor that they had to pay for. Ruthless , you bet, but by the time the new guy wises up and sees he has been shafted but it is too late. Sometimes these business had to close down. The big company don't care they will always find another sucker to romance into doing the work.
