Tree Removal Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

We start with a free assessment of your tree and property. Our arborist evaluates the tree’s condition, identifies potential hazards, and determines the safest removal approach. You get a clear estimate with no surprises.

On removal day, we protect your landscaping and structures with tarps and barriers. We cut the tree in sections, starting from the top and working down, controlling every piece as it falls. This prevents damage to your roof, fence, or garden.

After the tree is down, we grind the stump below ground level and clean up every branch, leaf, and wood chip. We haul away all debris, leaving your property clean and ready for whatever comes next. The job isn’t finished until your yard looks better than when we started.

Complete Tree Disposal Services

Everything Included, Nothing Left Behind

Your tree removal includes complete stump grinding, not just cutting the tree at ground level. We grind stumps 6-8 inches below grade so you can plant grass or install landscaping immediately. No ugly stumps or root sprouting later.

All debris gets hauled away the same day. Branches, logs, and wood chips don’t sit in your yard for weeks. We have our own trucks and disposal sites, so cleanup happens fast and completely.

We protect your property during the entire process. Lawn protection, structure barriers, and careful rigging prevent damage to your home, driveway, or landscaping. Rivers Edge properties often have tight spaces and valuable landscaping, so we plan every cut and every fall path before we start working.

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Most residential tree removals in Rivers Edge range from $500 to $2,500. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $500-$1,000, while large trees over 60 feet or those near structures cost $1,500-$2,500 or more. Emergency removals and difficult access situations cost more due to additional equipment and safety requirements. We provide free estimates that include everything: cutting, stump grinding, and complete cleanup with no hidden fees.
Rivers Edge doesn’t typically require permits for removing trees on private property, but there are exceptions. Trees in protected areas, historic districts, or those over certain sizes may need approval. If your tree is near property lines, check with neighbors and local utilities before removal. We help determine if permits are needed and can guide you through the process. Dead, diseased, or hazardous trees can usually be removed immediately for safety reasons. When in doubt, we’ll check local requirements before starting work.
Yes, we specialize in removing trees near structures and obstacles. We use rigging techniques and specialized equipment to control every piece of the tree as it comes down. For trees touching power lines, we coordinate with the utility company to ensure safe removal. Our arborists are trained in working around electrical hazards and tight spaces common in Rivers Edge neighborhoods. We’ve removed trees from between houses, over garages, and near pools without property damage. The key is proper planning, professional equipment, and experienced crews who understand how trees fall and how to control them.
Tree removal can happen year-round, but late fall through early spring is often ideal in Rivers Edge. Trees are dormant, so removal stress doesn’t affect nearby plants. Winter removal is easier because there are no leaves to clean up, and frozen ground protects your lawn from equipment damage. However, dangerous trees should be removed immediately regardless of season. Storm-damaged or dead trees don’t get safer by waiting. We work in all weather conditions except during active storms or when ice makes climbing unsafe.
Most residential tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on the tree’s size and location. Small trees under 30 feet often take 2-3 hours including cleanup. Large trees or those in difficult locations can take a full day. Complex removals near multiple structures or with limited access may require two days. Emergency storm damage removals happen as quickly as safety allows, often within hours of your call. We give you realistic timeframes during the estimate and keep you updated if conditions change. The job isn’t finished until cleanup is complete and your property is restored.
We handle all wood disposal unless you request otherwise. Logs can be cut into firewood lengths and left for you at no extra charge if you want them. Otherwise, we haul everything away to recycling facilities where wood becomes mulch, biomass fuel, or lumber products. We don’t just dump tree waste in landfills. Branches and debris get chipped and recycled locally when possible. If you have specific requests for the wood or want us to leave certain pieces, just let us know during the estimate. Most homeowners prefer complete removal and cleanup.
