    Tree removal built for Grand Rapids properties

    Grand Rapids neighborhoods were planted generations ago, and it shows — the city's mature maples, oaks, and ash trees are beautiful until one of them dies over your garage. Older neighborhoods mean tight access: narrow drives, small backyards, power lines, and trees bigger than the lots they sit on. That's exactly the kind of removal we do every week. When there's no room to drop a tree, we take it down piece by piece — or bring the crane and lift it out over the house.

    Dead and dying trees (including ash killed by emerald ash borer)

    A note on Grand Rapids street trees

    Trees in the strip between the sidewalk and the street are generally city trees, managed by the Grand Rapids forestry department — you can't remove those yourself, even if you planted one there decades ago. Trees on your own property are yours to remove. Not sure which is which? Ask us when we come out — we deal with this constantly and can point you to the city when the tree isn't yours to touch.

    What's included

    • Full cleanup — we haul the wood and chip the brush
    • Optional stump grinding
    • Straight pricing in writing before we start
    • Financing available through Hearth

    Your yard looks better when we leave than when we arrived — that's the standard.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does tree removal cost in Grand Rapids?
    Most Grand Rapids removals run $500–$2,500 depending on size and access. Tight-access city lots and crane work cost more than open-yard removals. Estimates are free and in writing.
    Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Grand Rapids?
    Trees on your own private property generally don't require a city permit. Street trees in the public right-of-way belong to the city and are handled by its forestry department. When in doubt, we'll help you sort out which is which before any work starts.
    Can you remove a tree in a small Grand Rapids backyard with no gate access?
    Yes. We do tight-access removals constantly — climbing and rigging piece by piece, or lifting sections out with a crane when that's safer and faster.
    How fast can you get to a storm-damaged tree in Grand Rapids?
    We run 24/7 emergency response and we're based 20 minutes away in Hudsonville. If a tree is on your house or blocking your drive, call (616) 862-9011 — day or night.
    Are you licensed and insured to work in Grand Rapids?
    Fully insured — liability and workers' comp — and BBB A+ rated. We'll provide proof of insurance with every estimate.
