Working in Mechanicsburg

Shade trees in town, clearing outside it.

The borough's older streets have mature trees close to houses and sidewalks. Around it, the townships keep growing, so we see as much lot clearing and HOA work as yard removals.

Creek corridors along the Yellow Breeches and Conodoguinet bring big streamside trees and storm damage. [CONFIRM: details of typical Mechanicsburg jobs]

How far is Mechanicsburg from your shop?

Mechanicsburg is about 18 miles south of our Halifax shop. Our shop is at 993 Ridge Rd, Halifax. For a tree on a house, a car or a line, call the storm line any time: 717-743-5871.

How much does tree removal cost in Mechanicsburg?

Price comes down to the tree and the site: height and diameter, whether it is dead or sound, what it could hit, and how close a truck can get. Stump grinding and hauling are listed separately so you can choose. Estimates are free.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Mechanicsburg?

Trees on your own property usually do not need a permit. Street trees, between the sidewalk and the curb, can be regulated by Mechanicsburg, and some boroughs require a permit to prune or remove them. Check with the borough office before work on a street tree. We can help you sort out who to call.

What tree problems are common in Mechanicsburg?

Borough lots are tight. Big old trees sit close to houses, porches, alleys and wires, so most removals here come down in sections with the crane or bucket truck. Emerald ash borer has killed or weakened most untreated ash trees in Pennsylvania. Dead ash turns brittle and should come down before it falls.

Do you handle storm damage in Mechanicsburg?

Yes. Trees on houses, cars, driveways and lines, removed in sections by crane, bucket or grapple saw. If a power line is involved, call the utility first, then call us: 717-743-5871, answered 24/7.
