When a storm drops a pine across your driveway or a diseased oak crashes onto your roof, Fallen Tree Removal in Georgia from our crew gets it gone fast. We handle emergency fallen tree removal in Georgia for homeowners, property managers, and business owners from the mountains to the coast. One call, and we roll with the equipment to cut, rig, and haul it away.
Fallen Tree Removal in Georgia is the process of cutting, rigging, and hauling away trees that have already come down, whether from storm damage, root failure, or disease. It is not the same as trimming a standing tree. A downed trunk is under tension, and cutting it wrong can kick back, roll, or barber-chair. We use chainsaws, rigging ropes, and a bucket truck or crane when the tree is hung up on a structure, then chip the brush and cut the trunk into firewood or haul it off.
Georgia sees this call constantly. October storms, summer squalls, and saturated red clay all send trees over. A fallen tree on house is the worst case, but we also clear blocked driveways, leaning tree hazards, and power line interference. If you search for downed tree removal near me after a blow, you want a crew that knows how to read tension and get the wood off your property without making the damage worse.
Every job starts with an on-site assessment and a firm price. From there, we cut, rig, chip, and haul. Here is what is part of the standard service and what we can add on request, like stump grinding or firewood stacking.
A lead climber or foreman walks the tree before any cut. We check lean, root plate, species, and tension, and we identify any hangers or spring poles. You get a clear explanation of the plan and a firm price before we start the saw.
We cut from the top down and use rigging ropes and blocks to control every section. If the tree is on a structure, we lift it with a crane or bucket truck before the release cut. Chainsaws, pole saws, and safety gear are all on the truck.
Brush goes through a wood chipper and the trunk is cut into sections and loaded. If you want firewood, we cut it to length and stack it where you ask. Otherwise it leaves with us. We rake the work zone and blow off hard surfaces before we go.
When a fallen tree is resting on a roof, fence, or vehicle, we take the weight off before cutting. Rigging slings and crane support keep the trunk from shifting and causing a second impact. This is the step that protects your structure and your claim.
Stump removal is a separate step from tree removal. If you want it gone, we bring a stump grinder and take it 6 to 12 inches below grade. We can also treat the cut with tree wound dressing on request. Ask for it when you book the job.
You call +18664591318 and describe the tree, the address, and what it is touching. We ask about power lines, structures, and access. If the tree is on a live line, we tell you to stay back and call the utility first. For everything else, we dispatch a crew and give you a realistic arrival window.
A lead climber or foreman walks the tree before anyone cuts. We check lean, root plate, species, and tension. We look for hangers, spring poles, and whether the trunk is barber-chaired. You get a clear price before we start, and we explain what equipment the job needs, whether that is a chainsaw and ropes or a crane.
We cut from the top down, using rigging blocks and ropes to control every piece. If the tree is on a structure, we lift it with a crane or bucket truck before making the release cut. Chainsaw bar oil, sharp cutting chains, and safety chaps are standard on every job. Most residential trees take two to four hours to bring down.
We feed brush through a Bandit or Vermeer wood chipper and load the trunk. If you want firewood, we cut it to length and stack it where you ask. Otherwise it goes on the truck. We rake the work zone and blow off the driveway. You get a walkthrough before we leave.
The stump is a separate step. If you want it ground, we bring a stump grinder and take it 6 to 12 inches below grade. We can also treat the cut with tree wound dressing on request. If you need a report for insurance, we note the species, size, and cause of failure in writing.
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Primary cutting tools for trunks and limbs. We keep sharp cutting chains and bar oil on every truck, and we swap chains mid-job so we are never cutting with a dull saw.
Used to reach and lift trees that are hung up on structures or too large to rig from the ground. A crane takes the weight off a roof before we make the release cut.
Control every section as it comes down. Rigging slings and blocks let us lower heavy pieces at a controlled speed instead of letting gravity decide.
Turn brush and limbs into chips on site. That means less hauling, a cleaner yard, and a faster job overall.
Grinds the stump 6 to 12 inches below grade after the tree is gone. We bring it on request so you can replant or pave over the spot.
Pole saws reach high limbs without climbing. A log splitter turns trunk sections into firewood if you want to keep the wood for next winter.
A 60-foot pine came down across a residential driveway during an overnight storm. The homeowner could not get her car out, and the trunk was resting on a low fence. The tree was still under tension and had a cracked butt log.
We cut from the top down, opened a path in about two hours, and finished the full cleanup in three. The fence needed one board replaced. The driveway was clear and raked, and the trunk left as firewood.
A large oak fell onto the corner of a house, resting on the roof and a gutter line. Rain was forecast, and the weight was already causing a sag in the ceiling. The homeowner needed documentation for an insurance claim.
We brought a crane, set slings, and lifted the trunk off the roof before cutting. The job took six hours with a full crew. We tarped the opening, documented the species and size, and hauled all the wood. The roofer started repairs the next morning.
After a tropical system, a coastal property had four downed trees, two root balls, and a debris pile blocking the side yard. The homeowner had a damaged fence and could not access the back of the lot.
We worked a full day with two crews, chipped all the brush, and hauled four trunks plus the root balls. The side yard was passable by evening, and the debris was staged for the adjuster before removal. The fence was cleared for repair.
A downed tree creates a chain of problems, and each hour you wait makes them worse. These are the situations we get called for most, and how we shut them down.
Ask a pro →We set rigging slings and use a crane or bucket truck to lift the trunk off the roof before cutting. That takes the load off the structure and lets us section the tree safely. We tarp the opening on request so rain stays out until your roofer arrives.
We cut from the top down and move the trunk in sections, opening a path first. Most residential driveways are passable within two to three hours of our arrival. We finish the full cleanup the same visit so you are not left with a pile at the curb.
We assess the root plate and lean angle. If the tree is over 15 degrees off vertical after a storm, it is usually a removal job. We take it down in controlled sections before gravity picks the timing, using rigging to guide every piece.
Call your utility first and keep everyone at least 30 feet back. Once the line is de-energized, we handle the tree. Our crew trains to OSHA 1910.269 standards for work near energized lines, and we coordinate with the utility on the safe approach.
$200 - $2,500+ depending on tree size, access, and structure involvement
Pricing depends on the tree, the access, and what it is touching. We quote by the job after an on-site look, so you get a firm number before we cut. Typical 2026 pricing in Georgia runs $350 to $1,200 for a standard residential removal. A small tree in an open yard can be $200 to $400. A large oak on a house with crane work can run $2,500 or more. We do not charge by the hour, so a stubborn root ball does not run up your bill.
You are paying for a crew that can read tension, rig a tree off your roof, and leave the yard clean. The cheap quote that drops a trunk through your ceiling is not a deal. We quote by the job and stand behind the work.
A 40-foot ornamental is a different job than an 80-foot oak. Hardwoods are denser and take longer to section. Dead or brittle wood adds risk and time because every cut has to be controlled.
A tree in an open yard can be cut and chipped with a standard crew. A tree behind a gate, on a slope, or over a pool needs a crane or bucket truck. Equipment adds cost, but it also protects your property.
A tree resting on a roof, fence, or vehicle requires rigging and lifting before cutting. That is slower and more technical. It also protects the structure from a second impact, which saves you money on repairs.
Stump removal is separate from tree removal. Grinding runs $100 to $400 depending on diameter and root flare. We take it 6 to 12 inches below grade so you can replant or pave over the spot.
“A pine came down across our driveway at 11 p.m. during a storm. I called and a real person answered. The crew was there by 6 a.m. and had the trunk cut and hauled in about three hours. They even stacked the firewood where I asked. Price was exactly what they quoted on the phone.”

✓ Verified“We had two oaks down after a squall, one resting on a rental house. Their foreman walked the job, explained the rigging plan, and had a crane there the same day. They documented everything for our insurance claim. Clean yard, no damage to the roof, and the tenants were back to normal by evening.”
Marcus T.Property Manager, Macon
✓ Verified“After the last hurricane, we had a mess of downed trees and debris. This crew worked through the heat and cleared four trees plus the root balls. They chipped everything and left the yard raked. I have used other services before and none were this organized. Worth every dollar.”

✓ VerifiedMost residential fallen tree removals in Georgia run $350 to $1,200 in 2026, depending on size, access, and whether the tree is on a structure. A small ornamental tree in an open yard might be $200 to $400. A large oak on a house with crane work can hit $2,500 or more. We quote by the job after an on-site look, so you know the number before we cut.
Call a licensed and insured tree service, not a handyman. Fallen trees carry tension that can kick back and kill an untrained cutter. We are available 24/7 at +18664591318. If the tree is on a power line, call your utility first and keep everyone clear. Once the line is de-energized, we handle the tree.
Often yes, but it depends on why the tree fell and what it hit. Most policies cover removal when the tree lands on a covered structure like a house, garage, or fence. If it falls in the open yard and blocks nothing, many policies pay little or nothing. We document the species, size, and cause of failure so your adjuster has what they need.
We assess lean and tension first, then cut from the top down. For a tree on a structure, we set rigging slings and lift the trunk with a crane or bucket truck before the release cut. Brush goes through a wood chipper and the trunk is cut into sections. A large residential tree usually takes three to six hours with a full crew.

Hazardous Tree RemovalA leaning tree or a tree with a cracked trunk may not have fallen yet, but it is a hazard. We remove it before it comes down on its own terms. This is the right call when a tree is over a bedroom, driveway, or power drop.Explore →
Dead Tree RemovalDead trees drop limbs without warning and their wood gets brittle, which makes cutting unpredictable. We take them down in controlled sections before gravity picks the timing. If you have a standing dead pine near a structure, do not wait for the next storm.Explore →
Leaning Tree RemovalA tree that leans after a storm has often lost root support. We assess the root plate and lean angle, then decide whether it can be straightened or must come down. Most storm-leaned trees over 15 degrees are a removal job.Explore →
