Doesn't sound like you were off by more than $1500, Tony. Big removals with extensive rigging and close power lines are high-dollar.

Dunno about up there, but down here you can call the power company. They will have the line clearance guys remove everything within 10' of the wire, even if they have to remove the whole tree down to below the wires. The downside is that you might have to wait a while for them to get to it. If the customers are not in a hurry, let the line guys clear it from the wire, then come back to look at what is left.

Tony, like Brian said, here in chapel hill they will remove the wires if you call them:angel:
