You don't typically have to buy things for pruning and removals, cabling would be different.
You are giving them your time, energy, and effectively money, if you are doing some administrative planning and scheduling.
If someone agrees to a price and sign on the dotted line, and has put down 10% (arbitrarily), then finds someone else to do it cheaper, even though they've committed legally, its going to be a losing battle to try to collect. A 10% cancellation fee would be reasonable, IMO.
