Crane-Assisted Tree Removal for Sullivan Gardens Homes
Some of the largest trees in Sullivan Gardens stand in backyards ringed by fences, sheds, play sets and the houses on either side. With no way to drive equipment back there and no room to lower big wood, crane tree removal can be the cleanest way out. The crane sets up on the subdivision street or the driveway, holds each section while it is cut, and lifts it over the house to the front, where the crew cuts it up and feeds the chipper. Nothing heavy is dragged through the side yard or lowered onto the garden.
Street setup takes some planning on established Sullivan Gardens streets. We look at street width, the driveways that need to stay open, overhead lines and where the outriggers can sit on pads without damaging pavement or curbs. Work along the road right-of-way may need a permit, and we will tell you if that applies. Because the crane may occupy part of the street for a while, letting neighbors know the date in advance helps. Service drops running through backyard trees also have to be accounted for, and the utility may need to be involved first.
Trees that end up on crane jobs here are often large oaks and old white pines, along with dead ash that is too brittle for a climber. A crane only gets recommended after we have seen the tree and the street, and if climbing and rigging can do the job safely, we will say so. During the site visit, our locally owned and operated crew measures the reach from the street to the tree, checks its condition and weight, and walks you through where the crane sits, how sections travel and where they land.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a crane block my Sullivan Gardens street?
Part of the street may be occupied while the crane is set up, depending on its width and where the crane sits. We plan the setup to keep neighbors' driveways open where we can, and we suggest letting them know the date beforehand. Work in the road right-of-way may need a permit. All of this is covered during the site visit so there are no surprises.
Is a crane needed for a tree behind my house in Sullivan Gardens?
Not always. Many backyard trees here can be climbed and lowered in sections with ropes. A crane makes sense when the tree is too large, dead or damaged to climb safely, or when there is simply no room to lower wood between the houses, fences and sheds. We look at the tree and the space around it and recommend the safest method.
How do I know if my tree needs a crane?
A crane is usually the better choice when the tree is too large to rig with ropes, too damaged to climb, or surrounded by structures on every side. Trees resting on a house after a storm often fall into this group as well. We judge each tree in person and only recommend a crane when it clearly makes the job safer or protects your property better than climbing and rigging would.
Is crane tree removal more expensive?
A crane adds equipment and an operator to the job, but it can also reduce labor and the amount of cleanup needed. On some large removals the total ends up close to a climbing job, while on others it costs more. Factors include tree size and condition, where the crane can set up, the reach needed to get to the tree and how much wood needs hauling. We price each job after a site visit.
