Over 23 Years of Experience in the Tree Care Service Industry
Our History
Herford’s Tree Care, Inc. was founded by Nathan Herford in 2000 and operates out of Estacada, Oregon. He has been involved with the tree care industry for over 23 years.
Formerly a middle school math teacher, Nathan started the business in 2000, with the idea that it would be a Summer job. After 3 years of trying to stay part time, it was clear he needed to have more than a pickup full of tools and a trailer. The growing demand, love for the outdoors, incredible satisfaction in the work itself, and the desire to serve others, the decision to go full-time was an easy one. With 2 crews running daily, and lots of trucks on the road, we’re hard to miss, and you’ll find our service hard to beat.
In 2007, Herford was certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) as a Certified Arborist (PN-6333A). In 2009, he became a Certified Tree Risk Assessor (CTRA496). These certifications are current and require that he continue his education of tree care to maintain his certifications. This ensures that he has the necessary skills and experience to handle any tree care issue you may have.
The business has grown from a small operation with only one truck, to a crew of two to three on every job. The company now has four trucks and a variety of high-tech, state-of-the-art equipment to meet the needs of any type of job they may come across.
In 2008, the company bought a bucket truck which gives them the capability to perform aerial work in tight or dangerous areas. They also have a second truck to haul and chip debris, and that enables them to dispose of the tree limbs and branches quickly and also to effectively clean up the area after the work has been completed.
With every year, Herford’s Tree Care, Inc. continues to grow the business, adding more people to accommodate their increased work load and expanding the types of services they offer to clients.
