From start to finish our experience was first rate! Ryan our arborist was so helpful, professional and informative during our consultation.

Knowledgeable, professional and friendly folks all throughout the organization. Would definitely recommend.
2nd time I used them this year. Very happy with the pruning & clean up that Juan & his crew did. Evan the arborist is very knowledable abt my trees & help me decide to try & save 2 trees. Reasonable price for excellent advice!
Evan was very helpful and precise in what we needed to be done. He explained the condition of the trees and he is certainly an excellent arborist. Will definitely recommend their services, efficent and careful and great clean -up.
Great job, professional, and very receptive. I highly recommend SavaTree for any tree needs you may have.
I had use other trimming companies in the past and was not happy with the results. Evan and his team including their customers team was fantastic. They answered all my questions. They were clean and when I requested if they can trim the trees ahead of time they made it happen. I would use them again and would highly recommended them.
Ryan & the men from SavATree were fantastic! Ryan answered all our questions, explained his background, & Made us feel confident that we had made the right choice to go with SavATree. The men worked hard & turned our overgrown jungle into a once again beautiful landscaped backyard. Great job & hats off to all. We will use them again.
Once again this year I had Evan Ford and his crew, Sabastian, Willy, and Luis, stop by to prune the trees and shrubs in my yard. They did a wonderful job and the look of my yard is much improved. I would highly recommend Sav-A-Tree if you are looking to have work done in your yard. Scott Daniels Mountainside, NJ
Ryan and his team were fantastic. When the crew arrived today, numerous phone calls and texts were exchanged to ensure the proper pruning would take place. It has been a breeze to communicate with Ryan. We are beyond pleased to have found such a great team to manage all our outdoor needs. Highly recommend!
I had damage from the storm that passed through recently. I called and someone was out that morning. Everything was taken care of in the afternoon. The team did a great job of removing the large branch and making it look like nothing happened!!
Sav a tree ruined a tree by cutting it in half They were suppose to trim it but hacked it In half
Evan was very attentive and followed up with us regarding our service.
Great work!
Greg Elledge and his crew did a great job trimming our very large trees and removing an old maple. It is nice working with an arborist who understands and can treat tree conditions.
My neighbors and I have been using savatree for many years ,excellent work very reliable
Eric and the team at SavATree are the only people we trust to help us keep our giant tree healthy! We inherited a sycamore that is 100+ years old and is the shade for four houses in our neighborhood. We love our tree and want to make sure it stays in great shape-Eric and the team have helped with treatments and…
Excellent service. Extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
SavATree is the only tree company we’ll use. Their arborist, Ryan Case, is the best. He’s why we’re loyal customers of SavATree. I wish everyone was as knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and smart as Ryan.
Eric is very knowledgeable, pleasant and professional! His team was efficient, courteous and did a great job cleaning up. I appreciate Eric following up to make sure everything went well.
So far so good with SavATree! The office team I've spoken to are very professional and welcoming. My arborist Eric is extremely knowledgeable and friendly.

The recommendations our arborist, Jody Huxter, makes to us are always perfect to what is needed. Recently, we had…
Not happy how they handled the scheduling of the tree service. They took the job, but never gave a service date. I had a long wait and I had to wait 3 months to have the branches be removed. Finally, they showed up while I was away. They charged me in thousands and did not cut the branches as I had explained and…
Expert tree knowledge, very accommodating and great knowledge about trees. If you need a tree removed or branches cut for a reasonable price this is the company for you.
Ryan Case and SavATree are my go-to when it comes to taking care of trees and other landscaping on my property. They are knowledgable, professional, fast, and non-disruptive.
We have used Savatree for our front yard for years for plant pest control and pruning. We are very satisfied with their work Ryan Case has been our account manager during all that time. Even though we are a small residential client, Ryan has been very attentive and is clearly knowledgeable. He is really a joy to have as our account manager at Savatree.
Greatly appreciate their expertise in recommending and treating different trees/shrubs. Ryan knows his stuff and the team does great work.
Excellent service, responsive and very effective in maintaining our trees and lawn. Highly recommend!
Savatree has helped to make my garden a really beautiful place. Ryan applied a fruit tree spray to my cherry and apple trees and for the first time since I planted them 10 years ago, they have produced amazing amounts of delicious fruit. They have also trimmed bushes and will be pruning and fertilizing in the…
The trees on our property were not doing well. Since having SavATree they’ve improved a lot. We’re very happy with the results. Four years later, still using them & still very happy w the results! Ryan takes the time to inspect & hear all our concerns.
Jody and his crew did a great job trimming a large oak tree + others around our property. The trees look great! He also took the time during the initial consult to teach me about the trees and the different options they have available. We didn’t go with everything, nor did he pressure me / up-sell me. Will…
I used to have a long time friend do some of my tree work and when he moved and Is switched to Sav A Tree it felt the same. Jody listens to you, walks the property with you making suggestions, and schedules things timely. The office staff is friendly and efficient. The crew that does the cutting is equally…
I have worked with Ryan Case for years regarding general care for our lawn and trees and shrubs. I highly recommend Ryan and the teams of people he has brought to work on our property. To a person those that have worked on the property are knowledgeable, professional and treat what is ours as if it were their own.…

Jody and his crew at SavATree are exceptional. The trees were very nicely pruned while taking great care not to hurt the grass in using a cherry-picker . Afterwards, the lawn was very carefully cleaned of branches. Jody is very knowledgeable. I am very pleased with this service.
Stacey is a gem! She came to our home quickly and offered a thorough and reasonable assessment of what we needed to do. She's not pushy and won't try to pressure you into services you don't want/need, but she really knows her stuff and I trusted her completely. The results speak for themselves. Our ailing tree is…
Stacey is the BEST. Nobody knows trees and lawns like her. She has been helping us with our yard for years. We wouldn’t trust anyone else!

Lawn care and management is actually a commodity business. There is little differentiation in product and process. What makes this branch special is their commitment to customer relationship and operation management. I have the pleasure of working with an expert - Scott Lamm. He knows horticulture and passionate…
We recently moved to the area (Short Hills) and have a little over an acre with numerous very large trees. Scott and his SavATree team have been instrumental in both trimming the trees for their health and removing several large diseased or dying trees (ie. 24" Sassafras, 45" Poplar, 24" Maple). Scott has been very…

Four years ago, when we purchaed a 75 year-old house in the Sleepy Hollow historic district of Plainfield NJ, we knew we needed some expert help. The house itself did not need much work, but one of the house's attractions were the many beuatiful trees. We also inheritied a lovely fenced Zen Garden behind the house…
I called SavATree to take a look at a tree in our backyard that we thought needed to be trimmed. When we were looking for someone to look at the tree I knew I wanted an actual Arborist with their expertise. Jody and his crew came out and were very professional, took the time to explain everything they saw about the…
Jody was incredibly thorough and patient when he came out to do the assessment. It was very easy to have the service done - I didn't have to do anything! Would highly recommend

We have been using a SavATree for many years. Scott Lamm has been an invaluable asset in preserving and caring for our trees and shrubs, many of which are unique specimens.

I've been using SavATree for about 20 years. I have always found them to do excellent work, very professional and on-time when expected. Jody Huxter has been my primary contact through the years and he is a pleasure to do business with. The entire team is fantastic.
Jody and his crew were very responsive and professional. Thanks for your help!
Stacie and Janet were extremely helpful. First of all, they were extremely responsive and punctual. In addition to the job we hired SavATree for, Stacie helped identify a number of issues that I hadn’t previously noticed which was really helpful because I don’t know the first thing about trees or my lawn. Would continue to use.
We started working with Stacie Phelps shortly after we purchased a property with many mature trees. Stacie has vast knowledge as a certified arborist, and she has educated me about our bushes, plants and trees so we can properly care for them.
