Whoops... Thanks, NHBabs.. Here are the pictures

This is the side of the house (I'll be painting the red)...

One of them has flowers, but the rest do not

Some of the smaller roots are easy to at least cut, but that's not pulling out their root structure

Thanks so much for any help!

The first photo is taken from too far away to provide enough detail for an ID. The flower photo is showing a honeysuckle and one of the weedy, invasive species. Third photo may be more of the same, probably L. maackii. 4th photo also too indistinct for ID.

Close ups of leaves and stems would help.

Not trees of course, but rather shrubs. Anyway pull them out with a chain and a truck unless there are underground utilities underneath them, that could be pulled up with their roots.

You can also cut them off at ground level, I like to stop at 2-3 inches, and immediately paint with undiluted Weed and Brush killer. Buy a cheap paint brush and keep it in a bag with the weed killer. Be sure to do it when it is not going to rain. You cannot let the stump dry out and scab over. That is the reason for doing it right away. It will be pulled down to the roots, so you won't get sprouts later. You can cut the stump to just below ground level and plant around it or dig out.

If I had a truck, could I just attach it to the hitch and rip them out? If that's the case, that sounds easy and like I should find someone with a truck

Oh yes, the truck and a chain (or heavy tow rope) is the easiest way. As Embothrium said, be sure to check for pipes, wires, ect. They are not usually on the side of a house, but you never know. Also, pull kinda slow to start and check for roots going under the foundation. You can chop them to keep from messing up the foundation in case big ones are going under it.

We pulled out some huge holly plants about 30 years ago. You know, the cute little 1 gal ones the builder lines up in front of the house and they turn into 50 foot monsters.

You can dig the shrubs out too, roots and all, but it is a lot of work. Still, it can be done. Ask me how I know . . . The stump-kill method is good if you aren't going to plant new shrubs in their place. The roots underground will rot. But if you don't use the herbicide right away, cutting off to stumps will just create a hydra of new growth. Have fun! Cheaper than the gym!

Can I use the stump-kill method if I eventually want to plant something in its place?

Yes you can use brush killer on the stump and replant with some stump killers, though not all. Some will have a longer life in the soil and prevent replanting, so you need to read labeling carefully before using anything like that. All herbicides have a product sheet required by the federal government that explains potential harms and lays out clear instructions for where and how to use it along with recommended safety equipment and disposal directions.
