ISA Certified Arborists. Safe, Strategic Tree Removal.

Tree Removal Services

At A Plus Tree, we deliver strategic tree removals and hazard management for HOAs, commercial properties, and homeowners who want to reduce risk and protect what’s around the tree, not just get it cut down.

When You Need It

A tree is dead, dying, or exhibits significant structural instability.

Storm damage has left hazardous limbs or a leaning trunk that threatens structures.

Decay or root disease is identified during a professional risk assessment.

You need to clear space for new construction or landscape renovations.

What Happens Next

Your arborist will assess the site, deliver a transparent proposal, and schedule a certified crew to complete the work safely.

HAVE A HAZARDOUS TREE THAT NEEDS TO COME DOWN?

  • What’s Included in Our Tree Removal Services

    We offer end-to-end management for tree removal, including technical rigging, complete debris hauling, and site restoration. For larger or more technical projects, we utilize specialty equipment like cranes and bucket trucks to help prevent damage to surrounding structures. Optional stump grinding is available, and wood handling options (haul away, leave logs, or chip/mulch on-site) can be discussed during your estimate.

  • Our Professional Process

    Before we make the first cut, we verify underground utilities and secure the drop zone to keep your property safe. Our crews handle tree cutting and removal using controlled rigging and jobsite protection to minimize risk to surrounding structures. For multi-tree properties, we can map priorities and build a removal and replacement schedule that fits your long-term goals.

    For HOAs and commercial sites, we can coordinate access windows, resident/tenant notices, and safety zones to keep operations running smoothly.

  • Tree Removal Cost Factors

    Pricing is based on tree size/species, overall condition, access, and the equipment needed (rigging, bucket truck, or crane). Proximity to structures or utilities, permit requirements (when applicable), and add-ons like stump grinding or log/mulch handling can also affect the final estimate.

  • The Best Time to Schedule

    For non-urgent tree removals, scheduling depends on access, permitting, tenant/HOA coordination, and seasonal workload. If the tree is hazardous, we prioritize the safest, soonest window to prevent property damage. If it’s non-urgent, we’ll plan around access, permits (when required), and occupancy to minimize disruption.

  • Why Choose A Plus Tree

    With 20+ years of experience and 43,000+ removals completed, we pair proven field execution with ArborPlus—our platform for tracking tree history and recommendations across 1-, 3-, and 5-year plans.

The Difference: Removal vs. Stump Grinding

Tree removal brings the tree down to stump height. Stump grinding removes the stump below grade so the area can be safely used again—whether you’re replanting, repairing hardscape, or just eliminating a trip hazard. If you’re not sure which option you need, we’ll walk you through it during the estimate.

Regulations vary by city. We’ll help you navigate local tree ordinances and can assist in coordinating city involvement if required.

Every project includes a thorough site cleanup. We chip the branches and haul away the wood, though chipping/mulch options are available based on your property’s needs.
