Workers compensation is by far the biggest expense of any tree service company that is operating legally in the Portland, OR, region. Workers compensation is very expensive for the tree service industry because tree service and stump grinding can be very dangerous for the employee and for the home owner. When you hire a tree service company that does not have workers compensation, anything that happens to the workers on your property is your responsibility and you can be held liable. Monkeyman’s Tree Service carries full workers compensation on all of our employees. We are able to keep our prices down by having a perfect safety record. We always put safety first in every stump grinding job that we do. Our commitment to safety enables us to pass the saving onto our customers.
