David Benjamin "Ben" Rankin is a Sales Arborist at Miller's Tree Service. He is an ISA Certified Arborist (FL-5629A) and a certified crane operator with more than 25 years of hands-on experience across every aspect of professional tree care — including tree removal, trimming, health assessments, preservation planning, and tree risk assessments.
At Miller's
Ben joined Miller's after decades in the field, including running his own tree service in the Tallahassee area since 1998. He works directly with homeowners, landowners, contractors, and property managers — walking properties, performing thorough risk assessments, and helping each customer understand what work is actually needed and, just as often, when nothing needs to be done.
His approach aligns with Miller's philosophy that trees are assets to be understood and managed, not liabilities to be removed unnecessarily.
"I've spent my career doing all aspects of tree work, but what I've always enjoyed most is working with people. Helping someone understand what's going on with their trees, and knowing I have their best interest in mind, matters. That's what stood out to me about Miller's — the people there do their best work and always look for ways to educate and look out for customers and their trees."
