| - I have some good news and some bad news. I recently bought a house... that's the bad news. The good news is that I found Ryan's Removals to clear out some oleander from my yard.
We have a small dog who likes to eat things he finds on the ground. Random things. Any things. All things. It turns out that oleander is poisonous and they have little flowers that fall all over the place. It would only be a matter of time before my little terror finds these flowers and eats them... so they had to go.
There were 7 of these large shrubs, each averaging about 8-10 feet tall. I started doing work on 2 that were clumped in a separated area from the others... Pruned them down to a manageable size and then starting digging a trench around the trunks.
I dug, and then dug some more, cutting roots along the way... about every 6 inches I would give the stump a push to see how it was holding up. I got down to about 18 inches deep and gave the stump a push... that thing was still as solid as a Greek column...
I made some space to get a sawzall in to cut at the stump and managed to get a hefty sized chunk out. I carried it to my brush pile and threw it on victoriously. Standing there in the Phoenix summer heat looking at the work I had done, I realized something... I was NOT about to do that 6 more times!
I looked on Yelp and talked to some friends to get removal service referrals. After getting a couple estimates, I chose Ryan's Removals. Ryan was priced comparably with the other company, but he came across as being very friendly and down to earth which I liked.
The day of the project, Ryan showed up with a Bobcat front end loader and other tools to help remove my pesky oleander. I had a feeling he was going to have better luck than me and my $12 shovel.
Throughout the entire process Ryan was constantly being conscientious about not doing any damage to our property, our neighbor's property or any of our other landscaping features. Anytime he thought there may be an issue, he would communicate it to me in order to discuss what solutions I preferred.
At the end of the project everything was cleaned nicely and our yard was left looking amazing. My shovel and I are worthy opponents, but even with my handy dandy shovel, I never could have done as good of a job as Ryan and his crew. DIY-ers... sometimes you just need to call a professional. And if you have a removal job of any kind, I couldn't recommend Ryan's Removals more.
