When they finished removing a large tree & removing dead branches from several others, they removed all debris meticulously. They brought adequate staff and their fee was affordable. We will use Cold Oak again when needed & will recommend to our family, friends and neighbors. Thank you again Cold Oak Tree Service!

In the wake of the storms that devastated NW Iowa (late July 2025), we had a huge pine tree that was dangerously leaning over a neighbor's garage and shed. The crew handled it in short order -- quickly, cleanly, and safely. We did ask for only the cutting of the tree (not hauling away the branches and whatnot), but regardless the price they quoted was definitely within the range of normal quotes. We appreciated their not gouging us in a tough time.

I flew into town last week from Toronto, Canada as my Mom had surgery a few weeks ago. They have…read morebeen needing tree removal for some time, and in the past had been quoted a sum that was simply way out of range by another company in town. I called Frazier and Art came by the next day. He quoted a fair fee and after I enquired about seeing a business license and proof of insurance, delivered that immediately. They showed up on time this week as committed and worked for several hours. They did a fantastic job, and my parents commented on how impressed they were with their work ethic, and the meticulous clean up. I have been in sales and leadership for 30 years, and highly recommend their service. It was nice to know that after flying back home, everything went super smooth in my absence.

I really wanted to rate this better. I have used the hauling Guy several times over the years and…read morehe was always reasonably priced. This time I was planning a move across town. I needed a heavy couch moved, a heavy wooden file cabinet and 20 or so other items. Based on his previous fair prices I expected to be told $300. This time I told him 2 weeks in advance that I would need him to make my stuff about 2 weeks in advance so that he could get me on his schedule. He agreed to move my stuff mid month but when mid month came he did not have me on his schedule. He said he would get to me if he had time. He didnt. I asked him the day of if he was still coming and he replied "I talked to your landlord (who agreed to be at my house to let him in) a couple hours ago. So I called the landlord who did not get a straight answer either. So I told the hauling guy "Id appreciate it if he told me directly what was going on since I was the one who hired him. He had already kept us waiting several hours after not putting us on the schedule. We rescheduled a week later. I stressed the importance of getting moved as I had a lot to get done after everything was cleared out. The night before the move I asked for a quote to move a reasonable amount. He came back with a quote of $1200. Seriously? That is double what the competition quoted me and 4 times what I expected to be quoted based on previous experience with the hauling guy. Unfortunately won't be using this guy again and unfortunately can no longer recommend him to others. What I can recommend to others is that if moving is that lucrative a job where you can regularly charge $1200 for what equals 1 to 2 hours worth of work, then I recommend to everyone is to start their own hauling business.
