The holidays are busy enough on their own, and tree removal can add even more to your plate. If you let a reputable professional team remove the tree, you can free up your time to fully enjoy the holiday season. Here are some things to note regarding tree removal during the holidays.
Scheduling Can Be Difficult
You’ll have to find a time that works both for you and a tree service company. This can be challenging when there’s often a long list of planned activities. Plus, many professionals take time off during this time of year. This is why we recommend that you schedule tree removal well in advance of the holidays when there aren’t as many conflicts.
You Might Need a Permit
In certain neighborhoods, such as those in historic districts or those governed by homeowners associations, permits are required to remove trees. Make sure you’re aware of any permit requirements in your community so that you can avoid any fines. Also, keep in mind that it takes time for a governing body to issue a permit. Since offices typically close during the holidays, creating some delays, it’s best to submit your application as early as possible.
Professionals Can Help You Clean Up
Cutting down a tree can be a complicated, dangerous process, and that doesn’t even include the cleanup. Cutting up a downed tree on your own can take a considerable amount of time and energy, which you might not have a lot of during the holidays.
To make things easier and to minimize any risk of injury to yourself and those around you, ask a professional to not only take down the tree but also clean up your property. Depending on the situation, our company might run a downed tree through a chipper or haul it away. In addition, we can pick up any leaves or twigs that may have fallen in the process, leaving your property looking great and helping make it ready for visitors.
Holiday Decorations May Be Affected
We can handle your tree removal, no matter whether the tree is close to your home, driveway, or other trees. However, adequate space is required to complete the job. When we remove trees for our customers, we sometimes have to drive our trucks around their yards. Also, it’s not always easy to predict how branches may fall. Because of this, we suggest that you remove outdoor holiday decorations in the vicinity of where we’ll be working.
These factors are important to remember when having trees removed during the holidays. If you have any questions or would like to set up a tree removal appointment in Virginia Beach, VA, call our team at Hampton Roads Tree & Brush Removal.
