Planting means choosing a species that suits your lot, digging a hole wide and shallow enough for the root flare to sit at grade, setting the tree, backfilling, mulching, and watering. Transplanting moves an established tree, usually with a truck-mounted or skid-steer spade, and the crew has to keep as much of the root ball intact as possible. Yonkers yards bring their own problems: steep, rocky lots near the Hudson, compacted clay, road salt along the curb, and overhead wires on older streets.
Before you hire, ask about species selection, whether they call 811 to mark utilities, and whether you will get a written warranty on the tree. Check that the crew is insured and that the company handles the city permit if the tree goes in the right-of-way. Good installers also explain staking, mulch depth, and a watering schedule for the first two summers.

8 businesses, scored on recent reviews. The order weighs each business's overall score by how much of its reviewed work is tree planting & transplanting, so a lower-scored specialist can rank above a higher-scored generalist.
All five Google reviews give five stars. Reviewers describe a crew that is professional, quick, and fair on price. Miguel Castro is named as the contact in several reviews. Only five reviews exist, so the evidence is thin.
Most five-star reviews praise fair prices, punctual crews, and tidy cleanups. Several one and two-star reviews describe loud weekend work, blocked driveways, and rude behavior toward neighbors. Only 18 of 26 reviews have text, so the picture is thin.
Recent work shows strong execution: a five-star review from 11 months ago credits Alex's crew for professional trimming of large trees and responsiveness to concerns. Older reviews reveal a pattern of estimate follow-up failures and communication gaps that hurt credibility. Limited evidence of recent improvement across the full customer base.
Both reviewers praised Stuart's crew for removing a large tree cleanly and efficiently, with quotes beating competitors. The team left no debris behind and earned recommendations from satisfied neighbors.
All five reviews are five-star ratings from two years ago. Customers report quick response to inquiries, timely appointments, and crews that complete work safely while cleaning thoroughly afterward. Reviewers note affordable pricing, efficient service, and a friendly team, though detail on specific services or any recent experience is limited.
