Old shade trees and HOA common areas.
Hershey is part of Derry Township. The older neighborhoods near Chocolate Avenue have large shade trees close to houses and the street, and the newer developments have common-area trees and buffers that an HOA has to keep up.
Traffic, parking and tight side yards mean many jobs need a plan for where the truck sets up and where the wood comes down. [CONFIRM: details of typical Hershey jobs]

What we see most on Hershey jobs.
Big trees over houses
Oaks, maples and spruces planted decades ago now reach over roofs and decks on tight lots.
HOA and common-area trees
Entrance plantings, buffers and street trees in developments need routine trimming and the occasional removal.
Dead ash
Emerald ash borer has killed ash across Pennsylvania. Dead ash is brittle and dangerous to climb.

How much does tree removal cost in Hershey?
Every tree is different, so we price Hershey jobs after we see them: size, condition, what the tree is over, access for the crane or grapple saw, and clean-up. You get one written price before any work starts, and the estimate is free.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Hershey?
Trees on your own property usually do not need a permit. Trees along the road or in the right-of-way can be the township's or PennDOT's to manage, and some developments have HOA rules. If the tree is near the road, check with the Derry Township office first.
What tree problems are common in Hershey?
Here it is mostly large yard trees planted with the neighborhoods, now over roofs, decks and fences. Removals and trimming near the house are the most common calls. 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 Hershey?
