Tree Removal in Evansville, IN

Taking down a tree near a house, power line, or fence is not a DIY job, and it is not a job for an uninsured guy with a chainsaw. We remove trees of all sizes in Evansville and the surrounding Tri-State with the rigging, equipment, and liability insurance to do it without damaging your property.

We are seeing a wave of ash removals across Vanderburgh County as the emerald ash borer finishes off the region's ash trees — if yours is dropping bark and canopy, act before it comes down on its own.

Trees we remove

• Dead and dying trees, including emerald-ash-borer-killed ash
• Storm-damaged, split, and leaning trees
• Trees too close to homes, garages, and power lines
• Silver maple and Bradford pear — the two species most likely to fail in Tri-State wind
• Large-diameter oaks and sweetgums in established neighborhoods

How we remove a tree safely

For trees with room to fall, we notch and fell them in one piece. For tight lots — common in older Evansville neighborhoods like Bosse Field and the Historic District — we climb or use a bucket and dismantle the tree in sections, roping each limb down so nothing hits the ground uncontrolled.

Every removal includes cutting the trunk into manageable rounds. We can leave the wood for you, haul it off, or roll the removal straight into a stump grind so you are left with clean ground.

Why the emerald ash borer matters here

The emerald ash borer has spread through southern Indiana and killed the overwhelming majority of untreated ash trees. A dead ash is uniquely dangerous: it becomes brittle fast, dropping heavy limbs and shedding bark, and standing dead ash is far riskier to climb than a live tree. If you have a bare, bark-shedding ash, get it down before the next storm does it for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you licensed and insured to remove trees?

The vetted operator we connect you with carries liability and workers-compensation insurance, and will provide a certificate of insurance on request. Never let an uninsured crew take down a tree near your home — you can be held liable for injuries.

Do you remove the stump after taking down the tree?

Tree removal leaves a stump behind unless you add grinding. Bundling removal and grinding in one visit is cheaper than booking them separately, and it is our most common request.

My ash tree is dead — is it urgent?

Yes. Emerald-ash-borer-killed ash trees turn brittle and unpredictable quickly, making them both hazardous and more dangerous to remove the longer you wait. Dead ash should be a priority removal.
