Tree Service Ethics

My view on tree service pricing

Almost all the tree companies I know charge by "what the job is worth."  What does that mean?  Do they charge by the pound? Or is it by the linear foot?  I actually saw a craigslist ad that had price by how tall the tree was.  For a twenty footer it was so much.  Thirty footer add $50.  This is insane.  I have to see the tree to state the rate.  Its that simple.  Location is everything.
 
Everything is time based in this world it seems.  So it makes sense to price tree work based upon time.
