Hazardous Tree Removal
A tree that cracked, split, or started leaning in a storm can let go at any moment. We look at the situation, plan the safest takedown, and get it down before it falls on its own.

Emergency Tree Removal for Richmond Hill, Hinesville & Savannah
Tree on the house? Limb hanging by a strip of bark? Call now, any hour.
When a tree comes down, we show up
Tropical storms and hurricanes can bring heavy rain and strong winds to coastal Georgia. Saturated soil can weaken a tree’s footing, while wind breaks branches or brings entire trees down across roofs, fences, and driveways.
We provide 24/7 emergency tree service in Hinesville, Richmond Hill, and the surrounding Georgia coast. Our veteran-owned team is licensed and insured, with over 40 years of experience getting dangerous trees off homes, cars, and power lines without making things worse.
Storm damage is stressful enough. We take the tree problem off your plate so you can take care of everything else.
From a single troublesome tree to large property cleanup, we handle jobs of all sizes at a fair price. Contractors hauling tree and brush loads can call about storm debris disposal by appointment. Confirm materials, rates, and unloading before hauling. Mobile incineration is an option for select large projects or major emergencies only, subject to availability and required approvals.
Keep people away from hanging limbs and fallen trees. Stay clear of downed wires and call the utility for electrical hazards; call 911 for immediate danger.
Emergency services
What we handle
Fallen Branch & Debris Cleanup
Downed limbs block driveways and walkways and hide nails, glass, and sharp wood. We clear yards, lots, and commercial properties and recycle the wood where we can.
Storm-Damaged Tree Removal
High winds crack trunks and tear crowns apart. We take down what the storm started, using the right equipment and proven safety practices.
Residential & Commercial Emergencies
One tree across a driveway or a dozen down across a business lot, our crew has the trucks and machines for both. We coordinate with owners and insurers along the way.
Crane Tree Removal
When a tree is lying on a structure or too close to cut conventionally, we rig it and lift it out by crane in controlled sections, keeping roofs and landscaping intact.
Insurance Assistance for Storm Damage
Storm claims can feel like a second disaster. We document the damage with photos and details your insurer needs, and we are happy to talk with them directly. Coverage decisions stay with your insurer.

FAQ
Emergency tree removal questions
Are emergency services available 24/7?
Yes. Day or night, weekend or holiday, we take emergency calls across Hinesville, Richmond Hill, and the surrounding area.
How fast can you get out for a tree emergency?
Call to discuss the damage and current scheduling. Weather, road access, utility hazards, and safe working conditions affect when work can begin.
Do you help with insurance claims?
Yes. We photograph and document the damage so your claim goes smoother, and we can talk with your insurer directly.
Can you remove trees from tight or hazardous areas?
Call about trees on structures or in tight spaces. If wires are involved, keep away and contact the utility first; tree work must wait until electrical hazards are made safe.

“Mr. Rick and his crew were amazing. They showed up early and worked for hours straight to get the job done. They were efficient and quick and did an amazing job. They were all extremely polite from the time they showed up to when they left. I will never use another tree service again, I am already planning for them to come back and cut the rest of my trees. Thank you again Mr. Rick and crew, I really appreciate every last one of you ❤️”
