An arborist knows how to keep trees alive. A tree removal guy knows how to keep his crew alive while killing trees
I know a couple of tree guys who are reliable & affordable, and one arborist (Renaissance Acres, Weare) who I trust for pruning and to take down trees in tricky areas (next to a house, power lines, etc), but generally an arborist does not work cheap.
If the goal is to take down one large pine tree, it is much cheaper to look for "tree removal, insured" rather than "arborist, certified".

You make a good point, Nonesuch. I don't specifically need an arborist, so let's change it to "insured tree guy."
How much do you think I should expect to pay for an 85' tree?
In what sense are they affordable? Possible cost to fell and cart away an 85' tree?
Your best bet is to call a few companies and get some quotes. Its impossible for anyone of us to say as we are not the ones doing the work and there are alot of other factors that I would think would affect the price
proximity to powerlines/houses/etc
Access to tree (can they drop it easily or do they need to bring in a crane or climb it?)
Clean up of wood/brush?
Stump grinding?
I think you get my drift.
With that said i had about 7 trees dropped in place (all very close to my house) about 5 years ago and it costed around 800 dollars. They left all the wood and I cleaned it up.
They also mentioned doing 2 trees vs 8 trees wasn't a big difference in cost, because the bulk of the cost is their insurance and them arriving on site and setting up their operation. once they are "there" its not much extra work to take down extra trees. (but again that is probably going to depend on the factors above)
What do you consider central, NH. I can give you several recommendations in the lakes region area.
As to price, that will greatly depend on location and space. Will they need a bucket truck or maybe even a crane? Are they taking it all away?
PM sent. Thanks!
