Get Competing Bids from Local Tree Pros
Post your tree job once — removal, trimming, stumps, storm cleanup. Local tree pros bid on it and you pick. Only a verified pro with connected payouts can be hired, and your payment sits in escrow until the work is done. $0 platform fees for homeowners.
Free · about 2 minutes. No sign-up to start — build your job first, create your free account when you post it. Contractors cover the platform fee on completed jobs.
Tree pros in 7 states — strongest around Washington, DC
One job, both sides of it
This is a real posting from the board — not a mock-up. Here is what the homeowner wrote, and what the tree pros bidding on it see.
What the homeowner posts
A few photos, the address, and a plain description of the work — what needs doing, what is close to it, and how a crew gets in. That is the whole posting.
Free to post, and you can build the whole thing before you make an account. Homeowners pay GivingStump nothing.
What the tree pro sees
Enough to price it without a site visit
- The scope in the homeowner's own words, plus every photo they attached — so a pro can see the actual trees, not a description of them.
- Access and hazards: gate widths, whether equipment can reach the back, what sits next to the work.
- They reply with a price and a written proposal. The homeowner compares whatever comes in and picks.
Bidding is free. A pro pays commission only on work they actually win — 5% for the first 50 founding contractors, 8% after. Never a fee per lead.
