Tree removal in Cary

Trees of Carolina handles tree removal in Cary, and when a tree is large or hard to get to, we can bring in the crane. We also prune and look after the trees you want to keep.

Getting equipment to the tree

Show us the tree and how we’d get to it

For a Cary job, send us a photo from the street as well as a close look at the tree. Driveway width, tight turns, gates and the room beside the house tell us how our equipment can reach the work. A photo of the top of the tree alone leaves most of that out.

For crane-assisted tree removal, we use our 17-ton Terex boom truck. We look at the tree and where the truck can set up before we decide how to take it down. When the site allows, the crane lifts sections clear of whatever’s around the tree, but it isn’t the right method for every property.

Decide what’s left behind: wood, chips and the stump

If you want the stump gone too, ask about tree removal and stump grinding together. Before we start, we’ll agree with you on what happens to the wood and chips and what stays. Our Cary guide to wood, chips and stumps walks through those choices.

If you’d rather keep the tree, our pruning and tree care can deal with clearance, dead branches and tree health. Tell us what’s changed or what’s bothering you before you settle on removal.

Questions about Cary tree work

Crane access, stumps and pruning in Cary

Can you tell from photos whether a crane will fit?

Photos are a good start, but they can’t settle reach, ground conditions or setup space. We look over the property before we agree on how to take the tree down.

Does tree removal include stump grinding?

Mention stump grinding when we talk about the removal. We agree on it as its own item, so you know whether the stump stays and what happens to the grindings.

Can I ask about pruning instead of removal?

Yes. Tell us what’s worrying you about the tree, and we’ll talk through pruning and tree care as well as removal, depending on its condition and what you want.
