I've used Midwest Tree Service 4 times now over the past 10 years, and I say, they are "The BEST of the BEST" both in the quality of their service, and a fair price for the work done. Each time there were major branches or full tree removal on a tree that was adjacent, and substantially hung over my house so it was VERY critical that they cut and lowered down each branch to avoid hitting our roof. Here are a few specific details... Staff/Team: When you watch them working, you can see and appreciate that they really know what they are doing and how to cut and lower down huge branches to avoid house damage. One of the trees I just had removed had quite a few obstructions which the team either moved or was able to work around. In 2017 they removed some major branches that were above my "Glass Sun Room"... This was EXTREMELY important that they did it right since even a small branch falling would have broken the glass roof. They did EXCELLENT jobs on all of the above. Also the team is very friendly and engaging and great to talk with when either they or I had questions or comments. Midwest Tools: MW has obviously invested in all the right state of the art tools including a bucket lift crawler to allow the chain sawwer to get way up into the trees, and a log hauling crawler to haul away the big/huge logs. Both of these have rubber tracks to minimize lawn and landscape damage. Even the team/workers safety helmets have built in 2 way radios so the entire team can easily converse as they do their job. And when they are done, they do an excellent job cleaning up and raking up sticks, scraps, and leaves. Price: Their price is fair considering all the work they do, the tools they use, and the care and safety that they don't cause any damage to my house. I would NEVER let any other service work above my house or glass sun room. Also 2 of the times I had them place the bigger logs at the back of my property for me to cut up for firewood whereas 2 of the times, they hauled everything away.

thanks again to eric and his crew after a tree smashed through my roof i called in the morning they came out that afternoon removed the tree from house and did a great job cleaning up. this is second time i used mid-west tree service and again they did great work for a very affordable price read more

I highly recommend Mid-west Tree Service. The price I was quoted to have 2 trees removed and the stumps ground was fair, and Eric was great at communicating in a prompt and professional manner. The crew was really careful to avoid crushing my wildflowers as they pulled the tree down, something I truly appreciate. The stump was ground up, which means I can replace my ash tree as soon as this summer heat retreats. A big thank you to the Mid-West tree crew!!! read more

An absolutely fantastic crew! They did an excellent job removing several stands of Buckthorn. Clean up was immaculate... they even adapted to some last minute changes that were required. I've got my new "go to" tree service!! Thanks Eric and team. read more

We had 2 x 25 ft pines and two additional medium-sized stumps to remove. Of the 8 quotes using Yelp, Mid-West Tree was the lowest bid. We strongly recommend Mid-West Tree. They came on time and were courteous. They came with all the proper large equipment and manpower that the job was done efficiently and very quickly. They also did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. We are extremely pleased with all aspects of their work. read more

Eric and his team did a wonderful job taking down trees in our yard, both alive and dead. Communication was excellent from both the owner and the work team. They had great equipment, and you could tell they were being careful of their workers. Price was very competitive against the other quotes I received, and this company is preferred and used by other lawn contractors. Quote was quick, two visits were done before work commenced. Work team was very friendly and easy to communicate with on questions. Excellent equipment was used. Will use them again. read more

Mid-West Tree Service - Lift equipment and chainsaw taking down our dead tree in pieces. - Landscaping Near Me - Wauconda, Illinois

Have used MW Trees many times in the past. Always do an outstanding job and take pride in doing nice work. Highly recommend!

We have used Mid-West Tree twice and would highly recommend them. First, they removed two very large trees on our property. The second time, we needed stump grinding done. Eric remembered us from the previous year and did one of the stumps for free. We have found Mid-West to be punctual, reliable, and careful. They are easy to communicate with; returning calls quickly. Eric gave us great tips on planting our new tree. Overall, just outstanding customer service. My husband hopes we are done cutting down trees but if we aren't, I'll definitely be calling Mid-West. :) read more

Just had me trees done and 1 spruce removed. Great job done. Got home from work and couldn't even tell they were there. Trees looked fantastic and clean up was superb. Have used mid west for years. Eric is great to work with and his crew is professional. Would recommend to all and will definitely use again. read more

Eric and his team have helped us with our tree needs for 2 years now. They have trimmed trees, removed them, and come over in a tree emergency. So far we have had to remove 58 trees due to emerald ash Beatles, and 14 due storm damage. Eric came over the day of the storm, and immediately cut the trees leaning towards the house and made sure we (and our home) were safe. The guys then came back a few days later and took out the damaged trees. Why not 5 stars? They are slightly more expensive. However, this is definitely a case of you get what you pay for. The guys are in proper safety gear, well trained, insurance....When you get quotes ask about the insurance coverage and if it covers tree climbing. Get specific information. Also ask what is included. We have never had any surprise charges or extras. Their quotes have been accurate. The equipment is clearly well cared for. If they are rolling heavy equipment over your driveway, they lay out mats to prevent damage. Our yard has always been left clean. The workers are all very professional. read more

We have used Mid-West Tree Services for 9 years and have never been disappointed. Eric and his crew always give great service. Eric gives honest opinions about what needs to be done and at a fair price. Sometimes scheduled appointments do get changed but invariably due to inclement weather either preventing tree trimming or because they need to help out after a storm...totally understandable. We have always found Eric to be very responsive to phone calls and texts. We will continue to use Mid-West Tree Services and thank them for all their hard work. read more

Eric and his company did a great job to remove our dead tree and at a fair price. We had a tree die this past winter and they removed it and grinded the stump for us. I didn't even have to be home and it was great he fit us into the schedule with all the rain. I strongly recommend them for any tree removal and grinding you might need! read more

I highly recommend Eric and his Mid-West team. We had 4 large dead trees removed and stumps ground. He was professional, a good communicator and provided great work at a fair price. The work was completed in a matter of days after Eric came by to view and quote on the job. The project was completed as expected and the immaculate cleanup was much appreciated. We will definitely call on Mid-west Tree for future jobs! read more
