Removal & Rigging

Tree Removal

Hazardous, dead, or in-the-way trees taken down safely — climbed and rigged, or craned in tight spots.

Tree Removal

For dead, dying, leaning, or badly-placed trees.

You might need this if…

  • The tree is dead or more than half dead
  • It leans toward the house or a line
  • Major roots are heaving the sidewalk
  • Storm split the trunk or a leader
  • It’s simply outgrown its spot

What’s included

  • On-site hazard assessment
  • Climbing + rigging or crane removal
  • Drop-zone & property protection
  • Full debris haul-off
  • Optional stump grinding

Common questions

  • It depends on the tree’s size, health, location, and what access we have. Small pruning jobs start around $400 and removals around $650; large or hazardous removals run higher. Every job gets a free on-site assessment and a written, fixed quote before any climbing begins — the number we say is the number you pay.

  • Often, yes. The City of Portland regulates many trees by size and location, and removal can require a permit and sometimes replanting. As ISA Certified Arborists we handle the assessment, write the arborist report the city asks for, and help you through the permit so you’re not navigating it alone.
