Professional Tree Removal Services

Tree removal is one of the most complex and dangerous aspects of tree care, requiring specialized equipment, extensive training, and meticulous planning. At Kirkland Tree Service, our certified arborists have safely removed thousands of trees throughout the Pacific Northwest, from small ornamental specimens to massive old-growth giants that require advanced rigging techniques.

Every tree removal project begins with a comprehensive assessment of the tree's condition, surrounding structures, and potential hazards. We evaluate factors like tree health, lean angle, root stability, and proximity to power lines, buildings, and other valuable landscape features. This thorough analysis allows us to develop the safest, most efficient removal strategy for your specific situation.

Did you know that a mature oak tree can weigh over 50,000 pounds? Our team uses advanced crane systems and rigging equipment to carefully control each piece as it's removed, ensuring zero damage to your property. We've successfully removed trees from tight spaces between houses, over swimming pools, and even through second-story windows when necessary.

Tree removal doesn't end when the tree comes down. We provide complete cleanup and debris hauling as part of every removal service. Our team will chip branches, cut logs to your specifications (great for firewood!), and rake up all debris leaving your property cleaner than we found it.

Many homeowners are surprised to learn that the average mature tree produces 3-5 cubic yards of debris when removed. Without proper equipment, this can quickly overwhelm your yard and local waste collection services. Our industrial wood chippers and debris trucks make quick work of even the largest trees.

We also offer stump grinding as an add-on service to completely eliminate all traces of the removed tree. This prevents regrowth, eliminates tripping hazards, and allows you to replant or landscape the area immediately.
