Storm Cleanup After Wind, Ice & Severe Weather
A storm does not have to bring down an entire tree to leave a difficult cleanup behind. Large limbs may split, branches can cover a yard or driveway, and damaged trees may still need attention after the weather has passed.
Our crew looks at the damage, nearby structures, property access, and the condition of the remaining trees before determining the best way to approach the job.
Storm damage cleanup may include:
-
Fallen tree removal
-
Large broken or downed limbs
-
Branches blocking driveways, lanes, walkways, or access roads
-
Storm-damaged trees that need to be removed
-
Damaged limbs that need to be cut back
-
Brush, limb, and tree debris cleanup
-
Cleanup involving multiple trees or larger properties
-
Hauling away limbs and debris when included in the job
A damaged tree does not always have to come down. If the tree can safely remain standing, trimming the damaged branches may be enough. If the trunk is split, the tree is severely damaged, or it has become a safety concern, removal may be the better option.
Our crew can evaluate the damage and explain what makes the most sense for your property.
Stay Clear of Damaged Trees and Power Lines
Storm-damaged trees can shift without warning. Hanging limbs, split trunks, bent branches, and trees under pressure may be more dangerous than they appear.
Keep children, pets, vehicles, and other people away from the damaged area. Do not climb the tree or attempt to pull, cut, or move large branches yourself.
If Power Lines Are Involved
If a tree or limb is touching, pulling, or tangled in a power line, contact the utility company first. Do not touch the tree, nearby branches, fences, or anything else that may be carrying electricity.
Once the utility company has made the area safe, Tri-State Tree Service can help with tree removal and cleanup.
Is It an Emergency or a Storm Cleanup Job?
Some storm damage needs immediate attention. Other cleanup can be scheduled after the weather has passed and the property is secure.
Call for emergency help if you have:
-
A tree on a home, garage, vehicle, or other structure
-
A fallen tree blocking the only driveway or access point
-
A split or leaning tree that may fall
-
Large limbs hanging over an occupied area
-
Damage that creates an immediate danger to people or property
If the storm has passed and the area is safe, but you still have fallen trees, broken limbs, or debris to remove, storm damage cleanup may be the right service.

Storm Damage Cleanup FAQs
Can you remove a tree that fell during a storm?
Yes. Tri-State Tree Service removes fallen trees and large limbs from yards, driveways, access roads, and other areas. If the tree is touching a power line, the utility company must make the area safe first.
Does a storm-damaged tree always need to be removed?
No. Some trees can remain standing after damaged branches are properly trimmed. If the trunk is split, the tree is leaning, or the remaining structure is unsafe, complete tree removal may be recommended.
Do you haul away the branches and debris?
Hauling and debris removal can be included in the job. Our crew will explain the cleanup scope before work begins so you know exactly what is included.
Do you provide emergency storm damage service?
Emergency tree services are available when storm damage creates an immediate hazard to people, buildings, vehicles, or property access. Call or text Tri-State Tree Service and provide photos of the damage when it is safe to do so.
