Straight answers.
Do you grind the stump?
Yes, when it is included in your scope. Discuss the depth, leveling and whether chips stay or are hauled away. More on stump grinding.
Do you haul everything away?
Yes. Brush goes through the chipper, logs get loaded and hauled. If you'd rather keep the wood for your own stove, say so when Jon looks at the job.
Do you give written estimates?
Yes. Ask for the trees, the work, stump options and haul-away in writing, so you can compare the same work between quotes.
