job.This level of disregard is not only disrespectful to me and my neighbors but shows a lack of accountability on Asplundhs part. I should not have to continually file complaints in order for basic responsibilities to be met. Leaving such a mess behind is unacceptable and a nuisance to both myself and those living nearby.I am requesting that the Asplundh team sent through ***********Return immediately to clean up the remaining tree trimmings and properly dispose of the debris as they initially promised. I also ask that they take full responsibility for the inconvenience and lack of follow-through shown by their employees.Business Response

I have power lines that run parallel to my property. I recently purchased the property. Asplundh came twice to cut around power lines. They parked on my property. They left all the clippings in my yard and did not clean them up. They came back a third time and after complaining to them, i was told by a supervisor they were not allowed on my private property as there was an easement they are supposed to use. They have since drove down my private driveway "to check powerlines". I am trying to contact them about this issue however they don't answer the phoneInitial Complaint

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********. The statement the business made that we have been unresponsive is false. If they did call from a spam looking number and did not leave a message, yes, we would not respond to that. When we were contacted by the local representative who did leave a message, we responded right away.I have reviewed the proposed solution the business offered and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

Dear Better Business Bureau,
The general ******* the complainant referenced no longer works at this location. Asplundh has attempted to contact the complainant without response. A claim is being reported to Asplundh's insurance carrier and the complainant will receive a call from Helmsman.

In December of 2024 ******* did tree trimming for the power company along the electric line on my property. It was very cold out so they cut up the trees and said they would be back to pick them up in February. To date, no one has returned and I still have piles of debris on my property. I began calling in February when no one showed up. I have tried calling their corporate, their local office, Ive stopped by and talked to the crews when Ive seen them working. I placed a call in with their third party hotline, Ive emailed and Ive messaged them on ********, but still have gotten no response.Business Response

On April, 2, 2025 there was an Asplundh crew working for *********** in my neighborhood. As I was leaving for work that morning I rounded a curve to discover a bucket truck blocking the entire road. There were no signs or road cones set out to warn of a road closure despite the truck having these items onboard. There also were no flaggers despite several Asplundh employees standing around in the road. The unexpected road closure resulted in a significant delay as there is only one way in or out of my neighborhood. Upon returning from work that evening I discovered an Asplundh chipper truck blocking both my neighbors driveway and mine. When I approached the vehicle I found four young guys smoking pot and playing with their phones completely oblivious that there were vehicles trying to get around them. I informed the driver that he was blocking my driveway and asked him to move. Instead of moving out of my way the driver pulled into my driveway and parked the truck. At this point I informed the driver that he was in my driveway and that it was private property, which is clearly posted. The driver claimed that being a subcontractor for *********** gave him the right to trespass on anyone's property and refused to move while aslo disputing my ownership of the property. At this point I called the complaint hot line number on the trucks bumper. In response to this the driver put the truck in reverse and backed the truck through the drainage ditch on the side of my driveway, into my yard, across the street, into my neighbors yard and then pulled up the road out of my way. At this point I parked in my driveway and approached the truck again. I informed the driver he had damaged my drainage culvert, my yard and my neighbors yard and would have to repair them or pay for the repairs. The driver flat out refused to do anything about the property damage and went back to playing with his phone. Later a supervisor did get some of the dirt off my driveway, but that was all.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is partially satisfactory to me. Although I was told originally when the representative from the tree service came to my residence on February 01, that my driveway would be repaired or the section that was damaged would be replaced. Also, I actually was home when the boulder was moved by the tree service representatives, I asked the workers to make sure that they replaced the boulder when they completed their work. I was assured that they would replace it. They did not.

Dear Better Business Bureau,
Asplundh Tree Expert, LLC (Asplundh) disputes that it moved the boulder due to the size but agreed to move it as requested. The boulder was moved to the original location on 02/03/25. An appraisal of the complainant's driveway has not occurred due to snow and ice. Asplundh will review the alleged damage once the ************ thaws.
