Michael’s Tree and Loader Service
Michael’s Tree & Loader Service, LLC is a full-service tree care and storm debris removal contractor established in 2001. We work for homeowners, businesses, contractors, property managers, and municipalities, and we handle projects at any scale, from a single tree in a back yard to city-wide debris removal after a major storm.
All work is performed by our own crews using equipment we own outright, including grapple trucks, bucket trucks, and heavy material handlers. Assessments are carried out by an ISA Certified Arborist, and you receive the findings in writing with the reasoning behind each recommendation. Where pruning or treatment resolves the problem, that is what we recommend. For customers who want their trees maintained rather than replaced, we build that care into a scheduled program across the season.
We are licensed and insured, hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau, and are an experienced FEMA contractor with storm engagements recorded across at least fourteen states. Estimates are free.
