Large & Tall Tree Removal in Huntsville, AL

We specialize in the trees other companies won't touch — 80-ft pines leaning over homes, massive oaks in tight backyards, and hazard trees a bucket truck can't reach. Thirty years of experience and remote-controlled equipment get them on the ground safely.

Why Homeowners Call Us for the Big Ones

Every tree company will take down a 20-foot tree in the front yard. Fewer can safely drop an 80-foot pine leaning over a bedroom, or reach a massive oak through a 6-foot side gate. That is the work we do every day. We built our business around two things: experience with tall hardwoods and pines, and a remote-controlled tree-removal truck that walks into places wheeled equipment cannot go.

Trees We Specialize In

  • Tall pines — loblollies and shortleafs 60 to 100+ feet, alive or dead, over homes or in the open
  • Mature oaks, hickories, and sweetgums — massive hardwoods with wide canopies near structures
  • Leaning and storm-damaged trees — split trunks, cracked leaders, uprooted root plates
  • Trees hanging over houses — removed piece by piece with rigging, never dropped whole
  • Tight-access backyards — steep slopes, narrow gates, fenced pools, and landscaped yards

How We Get Big Trees on the Ground Safely

  1. Free on-site assessment. We walk the property, size up the tree, and identify lean, dead wood, and access constraints.
  2. Written estimate. You get scope, price, and timeline in writing — no verbal surprises.
  3. Site protection. Plywood, rigging, and mats protect what stays.
  4. Controlled dismantling. Climbers rig the tree down piece by piece. Our remote-controlled truck handles the loads in spots a bucket truck can't reach. Cranes come in for the biggest removals near structures.
  5. Complete cleanup. Brush chipped, logs cut to length or hauled, yard blown off.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does large tree removal cost in Huntsville?
$800–$1,500 for 40–60 ft trees, $1,500–$3,000 for 60–80 ft, and $3,000–$5,000+ for anything 80 ft or taller or removals over a house.
Can you reach a tree in my tight backyard?
Almost always. Our remote-controlled tree-removal truck fits through most gates and navigates lawns and slopes without leaving ruts. If access is a concern, say so when you call — we've seen it before.
Do you take down trees hanging over the house?
Yes. We rig them down piece by piece so no limb hits the roof. We never drop a tree whole toward a structure.
Will my insurance cover it?
If the tree has already damaged a covered structure, homeowner's insurance typically pays for removal. Preventive removal of a healthy tree is usually not covered.
How quickly can you schedule?
Standard large removals are typically scheduled within 3–10 days. Emergencies are same-day.
Do you clean up?
Yes. Brush is chipped, logs are hauled (or left for firewood if you want them), and the yard is blown off before we leave.
