So a tree is on his house and he's calling around to find the best price to save his insurance company money? Must be a retiree with a lot of time on their hands.

Just don't give those ******* anything in writing. Scumbags like them take the highest bid to show their insurance company, hire the lowest bidder and pocket the difference.

Good to hear others are doing that.

Washing, greasing, changing chipper blades (a couple estimates). Amazing the things I'm willing to pay a guy for.. when they don't annoy me, that is. Oh, and still waiting on the chip truck. Grr.

After sandy there is a tree service full of crack heads that told everyone "this is a 3k job, but if u go with us we will mark it for 6k so you'll make money on this through your insurance company." This same company is in trouble for paying some of their workers' overtime in soft cocaine.
