Separate the supplied tree from the planting work
McCook’s returned Tree Rebate Program page is expressly dated 2025. Its purchase-price description refers to the tree and mulch material; it is not a contractor quotation for a complete planting service. Current rebate terms were not verified here.
Ask what the provider supplies and what physical work its proposal includes. Keep delivery, planting and work-area completion as identifiable items. An itemized answer lets you compare a material purchase with a service proposal without assuming the City resource covers every part.
Ask who handles care after installation
Before ordering, ask who handles any agreed care after planting and how a follow-up concern would be raised. State which responsibilities you expect to undertake yourself and which you want included in the proposal. Do not leave a later replacement expectation implicit.
Retain the actual aftercare and replacement terms with the accepted work description. Ask the City for current program information if a rebate affects the decision. This guide chooses no tree species, planting method or watering schedule and promises neither plant survival nor a provider warranty.
Does McCook’s published rebate page price a complete planting service?
It is a dated 2025 purchase-related resource, not a complete service quote. Ask the City about current terms and the provider for its physical work scope. No current rebate, amount or eligible labor is determined here.
What should the planting quote say about aftercare and replacement?
Ask who handles agreed care, what follow-up is included, how a concern is reported and which actual replacement terms apply. Leave unanswered terms open rather than assume plant survival or an unwritten warranty.

For a rented home, confirm who can authorize alterations. In a shared building, ask about access and work rules. A citywide construction period does not establish the age, condition or safety requirements of an individual home; check the property records and the specific project.
