About American Arborist

American Arborist is a family-owned tree service based in Bennington, Nebraska, owned by Mitch and Jayna Waite. It removes trees, trims and prunes them, treats them, grinds stumps, cleans gutters, installs Christmas lights, and sells annual plans. Its named service area runs from Omaha and Bennington to Council Bluffs, Gretna, Papillion, Bellevue and Millard, and the county it serves is Douglas. The business is "fully licensed and insured," including workers comp coverage. Estimates are free, with no strings attached, and it gives a straight-up price before any work starts. It offers discounts for multiple trees and for neighborhood jobs, and it will price-match comparable services. Its crews work with bucket trucks, a crane and a backyard spider lift, plus machines that fit through a 36" gate. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm. It also runs a roadside firewood stand at 156th and Military in Omaha. Bundles of locally processed firewood sell for $9 each or 2 for $17, paid by Venmo or cash, with honor-system pickup. American Arborist suits a homeowner near Omaha who needs a tree taken down, a stump ground out, or a bundle of firewood, and wants a price before work begins. A landowner hoping to sell standing timber will find it is a tree service, not a timber buyer. From americanarborist.biz, read 8 November 2026.
