We chose Vivar after a few recommendations. We are very happy. It wasn’t a huge tree, but because of the placement of the tree, all these crab apples and leaves were always falling in the yard and in our neighbors yard. They took great care cleaning up our neighbors yard as well, which was a little bit more important than cleaning up my yard. I would highly recommend them. Thank you so much Dave and crew!!

I recently hired Vivar Tree Services in Hillsdale, NJ, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, the team was professional and efficient. They safely and skillfully removed several large trees and tree branches from my property, and the cutting process was impressive.
And they did a nice cleanup afterward. Upfront pricing and no hassle.
If you're looking for a skilled and courteous tree professional, I highly recommend David from Vivar Tree Services. Great experience all around!

We can't say enough great things about David Vivar. Great company, family run and local. Very prompt and does a fanstastic job every time. We've had David come to our place to remove trees, prune them, do some landscaping and his services are not only reasonably priced, he and his crew do an impeccable job.
Recently we had a 50 year-old maple that unfortuantely had to go. David and his team took care of it quicky and efficiently, and cleaned the area so well you'd never know it.

Highly recommend Vivar tree Service. They removed a dead tree, pruned out very large oak tree and cut back our white pines in our backyard. David was a pleasure to work with. He responded quickly and he and crew left my property immaculate. He gave me a fair price and totally exceeded my expectations.
