Quote given within 24 hours of call. Job agreed next day after very fair pricing. Pruned and shaped two trees three days later, looks fantastic. Owner professional, knowledgeable and on-site for entire job. Upon completion, full clean-up with nothing left behind. Would highly recommend and definitely be using again!

My parents used Hugnagel for their home in Secaucus for years, and I have used Hugnagel Tree Service for my home as well. Over the years Hugnagel has done all of the following: tree trimming and tree removal and stump grinding in a very small restricted area (while I lived in Hoboken). Since moving to Long Branch Hugnagel has trimmed many trees and removed a tree as well. Hugnagel is respectful of not only your property but also the property belonging to your neighbors when doing any property line work. Hugnagel has the ability to problem solve when necessary and gets the job done. Estimates are always fair. You will never be disappointed. Absolutely beautiful work by great people.

I needed a tree removed and some branches cut. Contacted Hufnagel and not only was my call immediately answered, but Mike came right over to get me a quote, explain to me what he would do, how he would it, and offered a very reasonable price. The owner, Mike, was on site with his guys doing the work with them and they were all tremendous! Highly recommended and will use them again for future jobs for sure! Thanks, again, Mike and crew!

The tree service was done impeccably well. We had very tall trees on a small lot with close neighbors but that wasn’t an issue whatsoever. Every branch that was trimmed came down in a highly controlled and professional manner. The owner and workers were so polite and friendly; everything I wanted done was addressed to my full satisfaction and they even did a few little extra things at no added charge, so the trees would be cohesive in height. They even took out a couple short little weed trees that popped up last spring that were choking my lilac bush. And the yard was impeccably raked and cleared of all debris, once the trimming was done. I was so Impressed, I will 100% be hiring them again for all my yard needs, and you should too!

I had a great experience working with Mike and Hufnagel Tree Service to trim back some tree limbs hanging over our pool. Mike was very responsive when I reached out, was clear and fair on pricing and the work to be completed, and most importantly they did a wonderful (and quick!) job. Thank you so much, we will definitely be using Hufnagel again when we are in need.

Have used Hufnagel tree service in the past and they continue to be my "go to" tree service! Mike and his crew were on time and worked efficiently and safely---Mike pays great attention to customer wishes and all pruning and tree trimming on both maples and holly trees was completed as I asked while also removing all the pruning/trimming remnants! Highly recommend!!

I have had many trees removed over the years from my properties but never had I worked with such a professional as Mike Hufnagel. One phone call is all it took to have exactly what I needed done. Mike gave me multiple options and opinions that worked for me. The service was second to none and the quality of work and cleanup was exceptional. The price was more than fair but most importantly the whole process was flawless.

Called them at the start of the pandemic to assess a large tree and they came out to give options for saving or removing. Spoke several times and decided to have it removed. When I tried to book an appointment, they ghosted me. Almost a year later they came to give a neighbor an estimate. When the neighbor asked about my tree (it boarders the properties), the owner said he quoted it too low, and he was too busy with work that he was able to charge more for during the pandemic, so he didn't bother calling me back. If they had told me that the quote was too low, I would have listened to the reasons. Mistakes happen. But the owner never even bothered to return my calls. I had a competitor do the work for a little more and was quite happy. Hufnagel doesn't seem to care about the small jobs anymore and I wouldn't call them again given how unprofessional they were. I saved the texts so your protest falls on deaf ears. We have the same acquaintances who will back up my version and I stand by my review 100%.

Call Mike and his team to trim and thin out a tree in front of our property. It had gotten pretty out of control. Mike and his team came in had to manually trim and climb the tree because of proximity to high tension wires. The team did a great job keep me informed and clean up you would not even know they were here. As a arborist Mike know how much and what to cut to preserve the tree, Thank you to Huffnagel and the team much appreciated.

We recently had a neighbors tree fall on our car. The neighbor had called Hufnagel to have it removed. When they came out they explained how the tree had pressure points on the car and there would possibly be more damage done to the vehicle when they started to remove it, but they would try their best not to have that happen. Before starting to remove the tree from the car, I asked for a quote to have a tall tree removed from our back yard and the the price was right so I asked when they would be able to remove that tree and was told right after they took the tree off the car. (Who does that?..definitely did not expect that answer but was glad I wouldn’t have to take another day off of work for that). They did an amazing job removing the tree from the car and made sure that no other damage was caused to the vehicle. Thanks to the care of removal, no other damage was done and all we had was a cracked windshield that occurred when the tree initially fell. After completing that tree removal, they started immediately on removing the tree from our yard. I was super impressed at how fast and efficient they worked to remove both trees. All of this was completed within 2 1/2 hours with only 3 guys. The clean up was just as impressive…there was nothing left that would make you think a tree was removed. They even cleaned all of the debris from the car. I would never hesitate to call them if I ever need a tree removed again, and definitely recommend using them if you need tree removal. Thank you Mike and crew…you did a fantastic job!!!

I've had Mike do a couple jobs for me over the years and he's always responsive, reasonable, and professional.The first week in our new home a large tree limb fell on our roof during a storm. I called Mike to do the clean up and he personally showed up the same day to clear the tree limb off the roof in the rain. This allowed me to patch the roof to stop the rain from coming in. His crew came back a couple days later to cut down the remainder of the tree. They did a great job and the fact that he showed up for me immediately was huge. I won't use another tree service.

Look no further for any tree removal or pruning needs. I needed to remove about 10 massive oak trees, many of which were covered in poison ivy. Contacted Mike late on Friday, he was there for an estimate on Saturday morning, and completed the entire job on Tuesday. The work was outstanding. His employees navigated through difficult conditions and left my property pristine. Unknown to me at the time, Mike even contacted the power company to remove branches hanging over power lines the day before he came. Over the process, Mike did not try to sell me anything and provided very fair pricing. Hufnagel exceeded all my expectations, and I will continue using this company for any tree-related needs.

My experience with Mike Hufnagel and is team was fantastic. My former tree service company hadn't returned my call. We had a 15' plus pine tree in between trees, bushes, and electric wires on an incline. I located Mike's company in the BBB booklet. After doing further research I contacted Mike. He returned my call the same day. Mike came out the following day, on a weekend, to look at the tree. He proved a great price and returned that week with his crew.The was a job at my father's house. My father was SO pleased with the price and the experience showed by Mike and his team. My father pulled up a chair and watched them in amazement. Mike took time to speak with my Father and provided advice on other trees. The tree was cut down to the ground which was further than I expected, I was happy. The area was cleaned as the team worked. Based on our performance I would recommend Hufnagel Tree Service.

In a recent storm a very large branch from our neighbor’s tree decided to come crashing down onto our garage. We asked around for recommendations and most were for Hufnagel. We called them and they came out first thing the next day. We got an estimate and a promise that the limb would be removed this afternoon. The crew showed up and in less than two hours the tree limb was gone, they had cleaned up all the twigs and sawdust, and were done. What incredible service. Our neighbor was so impressed he hired them to come back the following Monday to remove the rest of the tree. I would not hesitate to hire them again if needed, nor would I hesitate to recommend them. Great job guys!

Mike really bent over backwards for me on this work. He quoted a certain job and left a portion of the work undone because my 85 yr old mother told him to, but she was wrong. Mike came back on a separate trip to finish the job. Very professional and reliable. Does what he says.

We contacted Hufnagel to get the trees in our backyard trimmed up because many of the branches were drooping and getting out of control. They called me a couple hours after I emailed, came out to give us an estimate the same day and we booked for the next day! Super professional and friendly team and they fixed our trees right up. Thank you! We will definitely use them again in the future!

We highly recommend Hufnagel Tree Service. They did a great job removing a tree for us in Sea Bright. We came from Piscataway to meet them, and they showed up right on time. The job and clean up were done safely and efficiently. Narrow streets, summer parking conditions and a limited work area were all handled without a problem. Thanks, guys!

Mike is really a wonderful arborist. We have used his service twice and this time was as impressive as the last time several years ago. He and his team are completely professional, friendly, easy to work with, and thorough. Mike really listens to the details of what you want done and makes sure that you are happy with the work. He and his team arrived on time, did a fantastic job and the clean up was excellent. His team is truly experienced with all the correct equipment and especially safety equipment. My trees and yard never looked so good.

Was pleased with entire service not just the actual pruning, here's why:Mike the owner, kept his word start to finish.Came for the free estimate when he said he would and kept tothe schedule thru out.We talked about what I needed/wanted and agreed to a fair price.Got what I paid for and then some.Mike showed up with his staff and as a group we discussed the work tobe done and agreed to before any work started, very important to both parties involved.His staff was efficient and courteous. Cleaned and removed all debris.Mike was very accommodating, ensuring that I received desired result.Has my vote!!

Mike and employees are absolutely professionals at what they do.I called Mike and left a message on a Sunday afternoon for some tree trimming and he got back to me promptly on Monday. By Tuesday at noon he was at my house providing me with exceptional customer service and professional advice on both the tree he serviced another tree on my property. His employees all had the correct safety gear and equipment needed to handle the job. His price in my opinion was very reasonable.Call him follow the instructions and you will be quite happy with the results.

This is the second time we have used Hufnagel Tree services. When you call Mike, he responds! He immediately shows up he knows his business. His team is reliable very professional, neat and a decent bunch of guys. I highly recommend them once they complete the job it is left spotless. Mike is great, he reviews everything with you and make sure you are happy! You just can’t go wrong. Totally trust them. You won’t be sorry!

I've been using Hufnagel Tree Service at my home in Matawan for years and they do not disappoint! Whether it's a trim, tree removal, or a day job where the team just tackles the whole yard, I know I'm getting great value and dependable work. Mike takes the time to examine the trees in question and presents all the options with zero pressure. I can't recommend enough!

A+ couldn't be happier with the job they did. We had the team for the day and they accomplished everything. While someone was up in a tree, someone else was removing a stump while someone else was triming while someone else...you get the idea.Everything was left spotless, the team was as pleasant as could be and we can now see the sky again. Thank you Mike and your A team.

A neighbor hired Hufnagel to clean up a 200+ y/o Sycamore on the border of my property and theirs. I did not know this.I came home last night to find a random note in my door from these guys saying that in the process of pruning this massive tree, a dead branch came down and hit the rope lights in my yard and broke some bulbs. The owner said he would be by today with replacement bulbs for the ones that were damaged. Sure enough he came by today and replaced the bulbs!It probably would have taken a day or so to realize that the tree was pruned. I wouldnt have noticed the broken bulbs for a while... they could have easily just pretended like it didnt happen and move on, but these guys did the right thing! Goes to show you that customer service is not dead! Kudos to Hufnagel. Also, the pruned tree looks great!

Have used this service a few times over the years and it is extremely professional, reliable and they always perform beyond my expectations. Prices are very competitive, typically the best if you are getting multiple estimates. Job is scheduled very quickly and onsite work is unbelievably fast. The crew comes in and completes the job in record time including cleanup. Most impressive!

From now on our go-to tree service. Have used three times now, over the past few years and by far they are the best, most professional tree service we have used. There prices also are very fair. Today, did a phenomenal job removing two trees for us. From the initial call to today, they kept us informed of where we were on the schedule. Showed up on time with a full crew that tackled the job in the utmost careful way to our property. All men were quite skilled and very courteous, finishing the job in the most professional manner. Even the cleanup was fantastic, leaving our property in perfect condition minus the dying trees. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

My wife and I were going to call around to get quotes from other companies but we kept getting referred right back to Mike from Hufnagle Tree Service and we are so happy we went with him.Right from the start, he answered our calls, our questions, he texts right back if there is a concern and he is right on the money. The price was reasonable (listen, you get what you pay for) and we got a great deal. Mike knew his craft, delivered on what he promised and most important to us; our front yard didn't look like Fallujah after he left (the clean-up aspect if important to us) Mike knew that no trucks could be on the lawn because of the sprinklers and he abided by that.Listen, bottom line; if you want a reliable, reasonably priced, efficient and most important, ON TIME tree service that does EXACTLY what they say they will...then it is a no brainer. Call Mike at Hufnagel. They have earned our business and we will continue to use them in the future.BTW: Your foreman, he is awesome. Walked me through everything he was doing, and was super professional. He needs a BIG RAISE (just saying)Great Job Guys!!!

Ed and his team (servicing the North Bergen area) did a beautiful job trimming the two massive trees that we have in our backyard. We were very selective in choosing a Tree Service company because our trees spanned into 5 different neighbor's properties. The trees look great and we now have enough sunlight to grow grass.

Mike and his crew came highly recommended from neighbors. I was looking to have one tree removed and several other trees cleaned up. Ed @ Hufnagel was quick to respond to my call and took the time to discuss work to be done and describe how they do things as a Arborists. I appreciate the natural approach to tree service, not just come in with a crane and rip things away. They went the extra mile and even ground down some stumps from previous cut trees as well as locate several large hanging branches in the canopies and take care of them free of charge.Not only did they provide a fair price, fast turn around and QUALITY work; they cleaned up everything and left the grounds in the same condition when they started.

Great experience with Hufnagel. My insurance company required that I have some branches removed that were hanging over my house. They were fairly priced and worked quickly. They even removed some additional branches so the insurance company wouldn't give me a hard time. Highly recommend them and their work!

Look no further for any tree removal or pruning needs. I needed to remove about 10 massive oak trees, many of which were covered in poison ivy. Contacted Mike late on Friday, he was there for an estimate on Saturday morning, and completed the entire job on Tuesday. The work was outstanding. His employees navigated through difficult conditions and left my property pristine. Unknown to me at the time, Mike even contacted the power company to remove branches hanging over power lines the day before he came. Over the process, Mike did not try to sell me anything and provided very fair pricing. Hufnagel exceeded all my expectations, and I will continue using this company for any tree-related needs.

My experience with Mike Hufnagel and is team was fantastic. My former tree service company hadn't returned my call. We had a 15' plus pine tree in between trees, bushes, and electric wires on an incline. I located Mike's company in the BBB booklet. After doing further research I contacted Mike. He returned my call the same day. Mike came out the following day, on a weekend, to look at the tree. He proved a great price and returned that week with his crew.The was a job at my father's house. My father was SO pleased with the price and the experience showed by Mike and his team. My father pulled up a chair and watched them in amazement. Mike took time to speak with my Father and provided advice on other trees. The tree was cut down to the ground which was further than I expected, I was happy. The area was cleaned as the team worked. Based on our performance I would recommend Hufnagel Tree Service.

In a recent storm a very large branch from our neighbor’s tree decided to come crashing down onto our garage. We asked around for recommendations and most were for Hufnagel. We called them and they came out first thing the next day. We got an estimate and a promise that the limb would be removed this afternoon. The crew showed up and in less than two hours the tree limb was gone, they had cleaned up all the twigs and sawdust, and were done. What incredible service. Our neighbor was so impressed he hired them to come back the following Monday to remove the rest of the tree. I would not hesitate to hire them again if needed, nor would I hesitate to recommend them. Great job guys!

Mike really bent over backwards for me on this work. He quoted a certain job and left a portion of the work undone because my 85 yr old mother told him to, but she was wrong. Mike came back on a separate trip to finish the job. Very professional and reliable. Does what he says.

Mike from Hufnagel & his crew came today (May 5, 2022) very happy with their services & price. We would recommend Hufnagle and we will continue to use them for our tree services in the future.

We contacted Hufnagel to get the trees in our backyard trimmed up because many of the branches were drooping and getting out of control. They called me a couple hours after I emailed, came out to give us an estimate the same day and we booked for the next day! Super professional and friendly team and they fixed our trees right up. Thank you! We will definitely use them again in the future!

The arborist came to my house in highlands and trimmed a tree with branches touching the roof and getting close to the powerlines. He was knowledgeable, timely and price was fair. Thank you

We highly recommend Hufnagel Tree Service. They did a great job removing a tree for us in Sea Bright. We came from Piscataway to meet them, and they showed up right on time. The job and clean up were done safely and efficiently. Narrow streets, summer parking conditions and a limited work area were all handled without a problem. Thanks, guys!

Mike is really a wonderful arborist. We have used his service twice and this time was as impressive as the last time several years ago. He and his team are completely professional, friendly, easy to work with, and thorough. Mike really listens to the details of what you want done and makes sure that you are happy with the work. He and his team arrived on time, did a fantastic job and the clean up was excellent. His team is truly experienced with all the correct equipment and especially safety equipment. My trees and yard never looked so good.

Was pleased with entire service not just the actual pruning, here's why:Mike the owner, kept his word start to finish.Came for the free estimate when he said he would and kept tothe schedule thru out.We talked about what I needed/wanted and agreed to a fair price.Got what I paid for and then some.Mike showed up with his staff and as a group we discussed the work tobe done and agreed to before any work started, very important to both parties involved.His staff was efficient and courteous. Cleaned and removed all debris.Mike was very accommodating, ensuring that I received desired result.Has my vote!!

Mike and employees are absolutely professionals at what they do.I called Mike and left a message on a Sunday afternoon for some tree trimming and he got back to me promptly on Monday. By Tuesday at noon he was at my house providing me with exceptional customer service and professional advice on both the tree he serviced another tree on my property. His employees all had the correct safety gear and equipment needed to handle the job. His price in my opinion was very reasonable.Call him follow the instructions and you will be quite happy with the results.

This is the second time we have used Hufnagel Tree services. When you call Mike, he responds! He immediately shows up he knows his business. His team is reliable very professional, neat and a decent bunch of guys. I highly recommend them once they complete the job it is left spotless. Mike is great, he reviews everything with you and make sure you are happy! You just can’t go wrong. Totally trust them. You won’t be sorry!

I've been using Hufnagel Tree Service at my home in Matawan for years and they do not disappoint! Whether it's a trim, tree removal, or a day job where the team just tackles the whole yard, I know I'm getting great value and dependable work. Mike takes the time to examine the trees in question and presents all the options with zero pressure. I can't recommend enough!

A+ couldn't be happier with the job they did. We had the team for the day and they accomplished everything. While someone was up in a tree, someone else was removing a stump while someone else was triming while someone else...you get the idea.Everything was left spotless, the team was as pleasant as could be and we can now see the sky again. Thank you Mike and your A team.

A neighbor hired Hufnagel to clean up a 200+ y/o Sycamore on the border of my property and theirs. I did not know this.I came home last night to find a random note in my door from these guys saying that in the process of pruning this massive tree, a dead branch came down and hit the rope lights in my yard and broke some bulbs. The owner said he would be by today with replacement bulbs for the ones that were damaged. Sure enough he came by today and replaced the bulbs!It probably would have taken a day or so to realize that the tree was pruned. I wouldnt have noticed the broken bulbs for a while... they could have easily just pretended like it didnt happen and move on, but these guys did the right thing! Goes to show you that customer service is not dead! Kudos to Hufnagel. Also, the pruned tree looks great!

When I have any issues with trees, whether it's downed after a storm, leaning over my properties or rental units; Hufnagel is who I call. Reliable, honest, fair, and hardworking; there's no better tree people around!

Have used this service a few times over the years and it is extremely professional, reliable and they always perform beyond my expectations. Prices are very competitive, typically the best if you are getting multiple estimates. Job is scheduled very quickly and onsite work is unbelievably fast. The crew comes in and completes the job in record time including cleanup. Most impressive!

From now on our go-to tree service. Have used three times now, over the past few years and by far they are the best, most professional tree service we have used. There prices also are very fair. Today, did a phenomenal job removing two trees for us. From the initial call to today, they kept us informed of where we were on the schedule. Showed up on time with a full crew that tackled the job in the utmost careful way to our property. All men were quite skilled and very courteous, finishing the job in the most professional manner. Even the cleanup was fantastic, leaving our property in perfect condition minus the dying trees. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

My wife and I were going to call around to get quotes from other companies but we kept getting referred right back to Mike from Hufnagle Tree Service and we are so happy we went with him.Right from the start, he answered our calls, our questions, he texts right back if there is a concern and he is right on the money. The price was reasonable (listen, you get what you pay for) and we got a great deal. Mike knew his craft, delivered on what he promised and most important to us; our front yard didn't look like Fallujah after he left (the clean-up aspect if important to us) Mike knew that no trucks could be on the lawn because of the sprinklers and he abided by that.Listen, bottom line; if you want a reliable, reasonably priced, efficient and most important, ON TIME tree service that does EXACTLY what they say they will...then it is a no brainer. Call Mike at Hufnagel. They have earned our business and we will continue to use them in the future.BTW: Your foreman, he is awesome. Walked me through everything he was doing, and was super professional. He needs a BIG RAISE (just saying)Great Job Guys!!!

Ed and his team (servicing the North Bergen area) did a beautiful job trimming the two massive trees that we have in our backyard. We were very selective in choosing a Tree Service company because our trees spanned into 5 different neighbor's properties. The trees look great and we now have enough sunlight to grow grass.

Mike and his crew came highly recommended from neighbors. I was looking to have one tree removed and several other trees cleaned up. Ed @ Hufnagel was quick to respond to my call and took the time to discuss work to be done and describe how they do things as a Arborists. I appreciate the natural approach to tree service, not just come in with a crane and rip things away. They went the extra mile and even ground down some stumps from previous cut trees as well as locate several large hanging branches in the canopies and take care of them free of charge.Not only did they provide a fair price, fast turn around and QUALITY work; they cleaned up everything and left the grounds in the same condition when they started.

Great experience with Hufnagel. My insurance company required that I have some branches removed that were hanging over my house. They were fairly priced and worked quickly. They even removed some additional branches so the insurance company wouldn't give me a hard time. Highly recommend them and their work!
