Cleanup scope

Tree Cleanup After Severe Weather

Fallen Limbs

Large limbs can block access, damage landscaping, or leave hazards around walkways and driveways.

Broken Branches

Storm-broken limbs may stay lodged in the canopy and fall later when wind shifts.

Uprooted Trees

Root plates, leaning trunks, and unstable trees require extra caution before cleanup begins.

Emergency vs full cleanup

Emergency Stabilization vs. Full Cleanup

Some storm calls start with urgent access or structure concerns. Full cleanup can include limb removal, debris hauling, raking, wood handling, and stump grinding if a tree was removed.

Do not approach storm-damaged trees near utility lines. Contact the utility company first if any tree or limb is touching lines.

What Homeowners Should Do Before We Arrive

  • Keep people and pets away from hanging limbs and unstable trees.
  • Take photos from a safe distance for records or insurance.
  • Move vehicles only if the area is safe.
  • Text photos of access points, tree position, and damaged areas if possible.
