Customers are thrilled with our arborist services

Reliable Tree Service is known throughout northeastern New Jersey for its fantastic service, affordable prices, and tree expertise. Read just a few reviews for our tree removal and trimming services.  

Fast and clean service

“Reliable is great. We just had a tree removed in our backyard. They were reliable, fast, and very clean.”

Pete

Hoboken, NJ

Superb tree service

“I can’t say enough about Ed and Reliable. I won’t call anybody else in the future. Reliable was responsive, the price was better than fair and the work was superb (and clean). We had a large half dead black cherry tree that was in need of major pruning, massive branch removals, two small tree removals (in between the two trees you see in the pics), and removal of a massive nest of vines that was essentially engulfing all 4 trees that had existed in that space (2 dead trees, 2 alive) and was choking out the two trees that were “alive.” Reliable removed the two dead trees, all the vines, substantially pruned both remaining trees and cut off 4 large hazardous (massive) branches on the large tree that were essentially growing horizontal. I haven’t taken the time to leave a lot of contractor reviews …. Don’t call anybody else.”

Mark

Fort Lee, NJ

Repeat customers for removals and trimming

“This is the second service I’ve had Reliable Tree out to do on our property. Last year, they came out to remove 3 trees which were in the way of work that we were having done to our home. Prompt, professional, reasonable and left me completely satisfied with the end result. This week they came out to remove some trees that were dead/dying/leaning as well as to trim all of the trees on our property (and I can tell you that we have a LOT of trees!). The finished product is amazing. They showed up on time and spent the entire day. The trees were down and stumps ground lickety split and the rest of the day was spent on the trimming. They left the property looking amazing and clean. I will be using them for all of my tree needs from now on. No need to call anyone else!”

Maura

Washington, NJ

Reasonable tree removals

“We had this company take a tree out of our backyard and the men who came to do the job were very professional and very respectful I would recommended them to anyone who needs any work done and very reasonable.”

John

Hoboken, NJ

Professional tree trimming experts

“Used them to trim a large evergreen in the middle of Jersey City and they did a great job. They arrived 30 minutes early (good job on that alone) did the work and cleaned up in two hours flat. I could not find one single needle in my back patio. Great job and very professional. Rates were also reasonable. I have already recommended them to neighbors.”

Marc

Jersey City, NJ

Large, complex job done well at a great price

“They provided an excellent level of service at a very good price. They were prompt and did the work carefully and quickly without damaging other plants and bushes on our property. When one scheduled date was rained out, they set another date within a week and paid the cost for the additional parking permits our city requires. We would definitely use them again. We needed four trees removed from our backyard and one from the front yard. One of the trees was a very large hardwood tree, which started to fall over during a recent storm and could not be saved. Our house is very close to other houses, with phone and electrical wires in the way of some tree branches. This was a very large, complex job.”

Kendall

Professional, pleasant, thriving maple tree

We hired Reliable Tree Service after our 50+ foot oak tree died and had to be removed and we wanted to plant another tree in the same spot. Ed was so professional, knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. We now have a healthy red maple that is thriving where our oak tree was. Ed even stopped by to check on our tree without being asked when this most recent drought occurred and left us a note to reassure us the tree was doing well. I would highly recommend Reliable Tree Service!!! 👍🏻

Linda S.

Repeat business in Hoboken

Professional, efficient, and amazing. I have had the pleasure of knowing and watching these guys work for many years while working for the City of Hoboken where I first meet them. Since then they have come to my house several times . Two removals, two stump grinding, and each time perfection! Several tree trimmings all done with ease because of their knowledge and professionalism . I recommend 6 ****** stars.

John

Hoboken, NJ

Great business referral, helping other landscapers

The crew worked great together. They carried out my exact idea of what I wanted done. They were very protective of my plantings under and around the tree. As well as the fence and my neighbors house. Clean up was excellent
