I'm looking for a tree trimmer/landscaper or handyman to trim back two trees from the front and back of my house from my home/neighbors and utility wires. I know most tree services are very expensive and it's probably not more than an hour or two's worth of work. Thanks for any recommendations

If the trees are hanging low/near utility lines you may have to contact the utility first. I'd be curious to hear other's experience in this area - we don't have any trees in our yard but there are tons of overgrown weed trees in the empty lot next door and the space between the yards in back (is this an easement or a right of way, not sure - it leads to an alley.) I'd be happy to pay for their removal because they drop all their leaves in my yard but I'm not sure how to go about doing this, and I wonder if my neighbors should also foot part of the bill...

A local guy - Mr Washington at 215 763 4589 said he trims trees. I haven't tried him, but he's local.
