Odis Bynum · Owner
The removal plan is decided before the first cut.
Odis reviews the tree condition, what can be damaged, how material can leave the property, and what should remain when the job is finished. He stays responsible for the approved removal scope through haul-off, cleanup, and final walkthrough.
Plan access and load-out
Gate width, driveway access, landing space, slope, equipment placement, debris volume, and haul-off route affect how the work can be completed.
Define the finished site
The estimate should make clear whether stump grinding is included, what happens to grindings, what debris is hauled away, and how the work area will be left.

A clean removal starts with the site—not just the tree
The right removal plan depends on the tree’s condition, what is around it, how the work area can be accessed, and how you want the property left afterward. Those details determine the removal method, debris plan, and whether stump grinding can be added.
Tree condition and stability
A dead tree, split trunk, failed major union, broken top, severe lean, uprooted root plate, or extensive decline changes how the tree can be approached and dismantled.
What is around the tree
Roofs, walls, pools, fences, sheds, vehicles, irrigation, neighboring property, and other targets determine how much control is needed during removal. Utility-line work is not accepted.
Access and work-zone space
Gate width, side-yard clearance, driveway access, slope, landing room, and equipment placement affect the removal method, loading plan, and what can be done efficiently on the property.
Stump, haul-off, and final site
Before work starts, the scope should be clear about stump grinding, debris haul-off, remaining grindings, cleanup, and how you want the area left when the tree is gone. Standalone stump grinding starts at $250 when access and site conditions allow; pricing is often better when included with tree removal.
Removal is not automatically the answer. If the trunk, roots, and major structure are worth retaining and the problem is mainly clearance, deadwood, or canopy weight, Tree Trimming and Pruning may solve the issue without removing the tree.

Monsoon Tree Safety · Mesa & East Valley
Monsoon damage can change the safest tree-removal plan.
National Weather Service Phoenix notes that Southwest thunderstorm wind gusts almost always exceed 40 mph and that the strongest gusts can exceed 100 mph. The City of Mesa also advises evaluating large trees close to homes when saturated ground combines with high winds.
For removal decisions, the important change after a storm is new structural movement or failure: a shifted root plate, new or worsening lean, split trunk, failed major union, broken top, partial uprooting, or a tree that has fallen across a structure or access route.
Power-line safety: Treat every downed line as energized. In SRP territory, stay at least 100 feet away from a downed line. Never approach, cut, or move a tree or limb touching utility equipment. Bynum Tree and Landscape does not accept power-line tree work. For trees growing close to SRP power lines, call (602) 236-8888. For an SRP electrical emergency, call (602) 236-8811. Call 911 for an immediate life-safety emergency.

From removal question to a clear work plan
Tree removal pricing and method depend heavily on the site. Photos help reveal the problem; the on-site review confirms how the tree can be removed and what the finished scope includes.
Show the whole removal problem
Send the full tree, trunk base, lean or break, nearby roofs or walls, gate and driveway access, and the stump area—not just a close-up of the damaged spot.
Build the removal scope
On site, stability, targets, access, debris volume, stump options, and the work-zone setup are reviewed before final pricing and the approved removal plan are confirmed.
Leave the site finished
The tree is removed under the approved scope, material is loaded out and hauled away, the work area is cleaned, and the agreed stump treatment or remaining site condition is reviewed.

Questions homeowners ask before removing a tree
These are the practical questions that usually come up before a removal is approved: cost, photo estimates, stump grinding, storm damage, debris, access, and utility-line limits.
How much does tree removal cost in Mesa, AZ?
A $200 minimum applies to approved service work, not the estimate. Tree removal pricing varies widely based on tree size, condition, lean, access, nearby structures and hardscape, debris volume, equipment needs, haul-off, and whether stump grinding is included. Clear photos can help with initial triage. On-site estimate required for final pricing.
Are tree removal estimates free?
Yes. Estimates are free within Bynum Tree and Landscape’s service area. For the fastest start, text 2–6 clear photos, your ZIP code, and nearest major crossroads. Include the full tree, trunk base, access route, nearby structures, and the stump area when stump grinding is being considered.
Can you estimate tree removal from photos?
Clear photos can help with initial triage and may support a ballpark range for some jobs. The most useful set shows the full tree, trunk base, lean or damage, nearby structures, access route, and stump area. On-site estimate required for final pricing.
Do you remove storm-damaged and downed trees?
Yes, when conditions are safe and the work does not involve energized utility lines. Text photos of the full tree, break or lean, nearby structures, access, and any blocked driveway, gate, or walkway.
When is tree removal a better fit than trimming?
Removal may be the better fit when the tree is dead, severely declining, uprooted, structurally failed, poorly placed, repeatedly damaging the property, or no longer practical to retain. When the main problem is clearance, deadwood, or manageable canopy weight and the tree is otherwise worth keeping, tree trimming may be the better option.
Is stump grinding included with tree removal?
Stump grinding is optional unless it is specifically included in the approved scope. Standalone stump grinding starts at $250 when equipment access and site conditions allow, and pricing is often better when included with tree removal. Gate width, slope, irrigation, hardscape, nearby roots, and equipment access can affect the scope.
Is debris hauled off after tree removal?
Yes. Approved tree removal work includes debris control, cut-up, load-out, haul-off, raking, blow-down, and cleanup unless a different plan is agreed to during the estimate.
Do you work on trees involving power lines?
No. Bynum Tree and Landscape does not accept tree work involving active power lines. In SRP territory, stay at least 100 feet from a downed line. For trees growing close to SRP power lines, call (602) 236-8888. For an SRP electrical emergency, call (602) 236-8811. Call 911 for an immediate life-safety emergency and do not approach, cut, or move a tree or limb touching utility equipment.
Start with clear photos of the tree and work area
