Tree Trimming & Removal in Independence

When we have trees around our homes, it is sometimes necessary to trim them back or even remove a tree in order to prevent property damage. However, for large trees, this kind of maintenance can be very dangerous, as falling branches are heavy and sometimes unpredictable. If there is a tree on your property that needs trimming or removal, contact General Lawn & Tree Service Corp today and let the professionals handle it.

Our highly experienced arborists have years of experience in safely trimming and removing branches and trees. Difficult removals may require cranes and a bucket truck to avoid damage to your home, power lines, or other surroundings.

Why do I need to remove my tree?

There can be any number of things that will make it necessary to remove a tree from your property. From disease, to storm damage, to simply growing too close to your house or to power lines, trees that are damaged or growing in the wrong place pose an extreme danger to both you and your property. If you suspect that a tree on your property is dangerous, contact General Lawn & Tree Service Corp and we will evaluate whether it needs to be trimmed or removed, and determine the safest way to remove it.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree from my property?

It depends on the laws of the municipality, but generally, yes. Many towns and cities have bylaws requiring permission to remove trees of a certain size, because they enhance property values. However, most municipalities make exceptions for dead, dying, or imminently hazardous trees. If you are unsure about the status of the tree on your property, it is best to check your local laws.
