Complete Large Tree Removal Solutions

Large trees present unique challenges that standard removal techniques cannot address. Mature oaks, towering pines, and massive hardwoods require specialized equipment, extensive planning, and crews with advanced training. Our large tree removal specialists have decades of combined experience handling the biggest, most complex removals. We assess weight distribution, plan precise rigging strategies, and coordinate crane operations to safely dismantle trees that can weigh several tons and tower over structures.

Advanced Rigging & Precision Cutting

The physics of large tree removal is exponentially more complex than smaller trees. A single limb can weigh hundreds of pounds, and the forces involved in lowering massive sections require expert rigging design. Our certified arborists use advanced rigging systems with high-capacity ropes, pulleys, and multiple anchor points to control enormous weights. We calculate load paths, account for wood density and moisture content, and plan every cut to manage the tremendous forces at play. For trees too large to fell in one piece, we employ strategic dismantling techniques—removing the canopy section by section, then systematically taking down the trunk in manageable pieces. Our precision cutting accounts for the tree's lean, internal structure, and proximity to structures. We understand how large diameter cuts behave differently than small ones, and we have the experience to predict and control their movement. This level of expertise prevents property damage and ensures the safety of our crew and your property.

Large tree removal often necessitates crane assistance simply due to the weight and size of the sections being removed. Our fleet includes cranes with varying capacities, allowing us to match the equipment to your specific tree and site conditions. For extremely large trees, the crane becomes indispensable—lifting multi-ton trunk sections that would be impossible to lower by rope alone. This is especially critical when large trees are located in confined spaces, near structures, or in backyards without traditional access. Our crane operators work in constant communication with our climbers, coordinating lifts with surgical precision. The crane can reach over houses to access trees in backyards, lift sections vertically to clear power lines, and place heavy wood exactly where we need it for processing. This capability allows us to remove massive trees in locations where traditional methods would be impossible or unacceptably risky.

Crane-Assisted Large Tree Removal

Complete Site Cleanup & Restoration

Large tree removal generates substantial debris—often multiple dump truck loads of wood, branches, and foliage. Our comprehensive cleanup service handles the aftermath of these major removals with industrial-grade equipment. We use forestry mowers for brush, large chippers for branches, and log trucks for trunk sections. The volume of material from a large tree removal can be staggering, but our crews are equipped to handle it efficiently. We grind large stumps with commercial-grade grinders capable of handling diameters of three feet or more. The grinding process goes below grade to allow for replanting or lawn restoration. We rake and clear the entire area, remove all wood chips if desired, and can even bring in topsoil to fill the void left by large stump removal. If the tree's removal has significantly changed your landscape, we provide consultation on replacement plantings and landscape design to restore balance and beauty to your property.

We don't shy away from the giants—we have the equipment, expertise, and experience to safely remove even the largest trees on your property.
