When you need a tree gone NOW
When a storm rolls through Minnesota, trees come down on roofs, cars, fences, and power lines. We answer the phone 24/7 and dispatch certified crews with cranes, bucket trucks, and chainsaws to clear the hazard fast — and safely.
Emergencies we handle
- Trees on houses, garages, sheds, and vehicles
- Large limbs hanging over roofs or driveways (widow-makers)
- Storm-snapped trunks leaning toward structures or neighbors
- Trees blocking driveways, streets, or fences after wind/ice events
- Lightning-struck or split trees that are unstable
- Tree-on-power-line situations (we coordinate with Xcel Energy before cutting)
What to expect when you call
- Call us at the 24/7 line — describe what fell and where.
- Crew dispatched — typical response time in the metro is 1–3 hours for true emergencies.
- Hazard secured — we tarp roofs, cut the tree off the structure, and stabilize what is left.
- Cleanup & haul-off — debris removed, work area swept clean.
- Insurance documentation — photos, written scope, and itemized invoice for your homeowner's claim.

FAQ
How fast can you get here after a storm?
For true emergencies (tree on a house, blocking a road, on power lines) we target 1–3 hours in the Twin Cities metro. During large storm events response can stretch to 6–12 hours — we triage by hazard level.
Do you work at night?
Yes. We have lighting equipment and crews on call 24/7. Night work is reserved for active hazards (tree on structure, blocking egress) — non-urgent removals are scheduled for daylight.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover this?
Usually yes when a tree damages a covered structure (house, garage, fence). We provide photos, written scope, and an itemized invoice formatted for adjusters. Removal of trees that fell in your yard without hitting anything is typically not covered.
What if the tree is on a power line?
Stay 30+ feet away and call 911 plus Xcel Energy first. We coordinate with the utility — they de-energize the line, then we remove the tree. Never approach a downed line.
Do you handle tree-on-car situations?
Yes. We extract the tree, document the damage, and coordinate with your auto insurer. We do not perform vehicle repair — just safe tree removal.
How much does emergency tree removal cost?
Emergency calls run $500–$5,000+ depending on tree size, equipment needed (crane vs bucket truck), structure involvement, and time of day. Insurance often covers most of it. We give a firm price on-site before cutting.
