WHAT DEFINES A 'HAZARDOUS' TREE?

  • The extent of the tree's lean
  • By what means the tree is hanging or if it is stuck on another tree or building
  • Whether the tree is alive, dead, or rotting
  • The species and health of the tree
  • Whether the base of the tree and root system is solid
  • The tree's position in relation to other objects, people, vehicles, and roads
The removal of a hazardous tree means making a plan before a single cut is made. Heavy branches will be roped and lowered to the ground after cutting. As each cut is made, the plan is revised to fit the new situation. Cranes are often used to lift heavy sections of the tree when it is too dangerous to remove with conventional rigging methods.

If you have questions or concerns about a hazardous tree, call Blount County Tree Service today at (865) 977-1422.
