About Big R Tree Service
Raul Rodriguez and the crew behind Big R
Our mission
Make outdoor spaces safer, better looking and longer lasting through careful tree work. That covers proper pruning and hazard prevention, delicate tree care and emergency removal. Every job runs on the same three things: integrity, safety and doing what we said we'd do.
We want your yard to stay safe, green and healthy for a long time, and we want you to call us again because the first job went well.
Meet our founder
Raul Rodriguez
Raul is an experienced tree service specialist who likes turning a tree around with good pruning. He got into the tree business to make a difference and to give people service nobody else matches at a fair price. He takes pride in the finished job.
He and his team handle commercial and residential tree maintenance and removal in Yakima, Washington. Big R is locally owned, so the work stays close to home, and the crew cares about the natural beauty that sets Yakima and the area around it apart.
“Raul explained it was dangerous and with the heavy winds we have been having it could very easily fall on our house. He recommended it be cut down before the others. Three other companies that did bids for us did not even mention it.”
What the crew stands behind
- Homes and businesses
- The crew maintains trees so they give shade, beauty and comfort without a branch coming down on a roof, a car or a person. A well planted, well kept tree also lowers fire risk and protects the view you bought the place for.
- The trees themselves
- Big R handles large tree work, from pruning to full removal. The climbers use spikeless methods whenever possible, so the trunk isn't wounded while they inspect or prune it.
- Licensed protection
- Big R is fully licensed, bonded and insured, which keeps the financial risk off you. A lower bid can cost far more if a branch lands on the house and the other outfit carries no coverage.
- Guaranteed results
- The crew shows up on time, stays polite and treats your property carefully. When the job is done they clean up thoroughly and leave only a little sawdust, which makes good mulch.
