Fallen trees left on roofs or structures continue causing damage. Professional removal prevents thousands in additional repair costs.
What Tree Damage Cleanup Actually Covers
The Whole Debris Field, Not Just the Tree
A storm rarely drops one clean trunk. It leaves split limbs across the lawn, fronds on the roof, branches in the pool cage and a scatter of smaller wood through the beds. We clear the whole field, not only the obvious piece.
Hangers and Half-Broken Limbs
The dangerous wood is usually still in the canopy — cracked limbs hung up and waiting to drop. Our arborists bring those down under control before anyone walks underneath, which is the part a general clean-up crew leaves behind.
Hauled Away, Not Piled at the Kerb
Everything leaves on our truck the same visit. You are not left with a pile by the road waiting on a municipal pickup that may be weeks out after a county-wide storm.

The First 48 Hours After a Storm
Safety Triage Comes First
On arrival we walk the property and rank what is actually dangerous — leaning trunks, cracked crotches, limbs over a roof or driveway. Those come down first. Cosmetic clearing waits until nothing overhead can hurt anyone.
Power Lines Are Not Ours to Touch
If a limb is resting on a service line, that is FPL, not us. We will tell you plainly, help you report it, and work the rest of the property around the exclusion zone rather than pretending we can clear it.
Why Waiting Costs More
Wood left in contact with a roof, screen or fence keeps doing damage every time the wind gets up. Split trunks also dry and become harder and more dangerous to cut. Clearing early is usually the cheaper decision.

Storm & Hurricane Cleanup — Frequently Asked Questions
The most common storm cleanup questions we get from Palm Beach County homeowners and businesses after a hurricane or severe storm. Have one not listed? Contact us, as we would be glad to help.
How fast can you get to my property after a storm?
Active hazards — a tree on a structure, vehicle, or blocking your driveway — get priority, often same-day. After a major hurricane, demand across Palm Beach County spikes, so we triage: make-safe work first, full cleanup second. Because we’re based in Lake Worth Beach and not dispatched from another county, we’re on local roads the moment they’re passable. Call (561) 246-3326 and tell us exactly what happened — we’ll tell you honestly where you are in the queue.
How much does storm cleanup cost in Palm Beach County?
It depends on what fell and where it landed. Clearing downed limbs and yard debris might run a few hundred dollars; removing a large tree off a structure with rigging can run $1,500–$7,000+. Storm work costs more than scheduled work because of urgency, hazardous conditions, and rigging around damage. We give you a written price before we start — and document everything for your insurance claim.
Will my homeowners insurance cover storm tree damage and cleanup?
Often yes — when a tree damages a covered structure, policies commonly pay for removing it from the structure plus the repairs. Trees down in the yard without property damage are usually not covered. We photograph everything before touching it and provide itemized documentation your adjuster can work from. After big storms, beware of out-of-state crews demanding cash — hire local, licensed, and insured.
Do I need a permit to remove a storm-damaged tree?
For genuine storm hazards, Palm Beach County municipalities allow immediate hazard abatement — the paperwork, where needed, follows the work. A destroyed or dangerously damaged tree does not have to stay on your roof while a permit processes. We know each city’s process and handle it as part of the job.
A tree is on my roof right now — what do I do first?
Keep everyone out of the rooms under the damage, and don’t climb up to inspect. If power lines are involved, call FPL first and stay clear. Then photograph the damage from the ground for insurance and call us at (561) 246-3326 — we prioritize trees on structures, stabilize what’s unstable, and tarp-ready the area for the roofer.
Do you haul the debris away, or does it go to the curb for county pickup?
We haul it — everything. County storm-debris pickup can take weeks after a major hurricane and has rules about how debris must be staged at the curb. Our standard storm cleanup removes all logs, limbs, and brush from your property the same visit, so you’re not living with a debris pile while the county works through its backlog.
Can a leaning or partially uprooted tree be saved after a storm?
Sometimes, yes — and it’s worth asking before assuming it’s a loss. Palms in particular tolerate leaning and even partial uprooting far better than hardwoods; many can be stood back up, staked, and saved if addressed within days. A split or snapped hardwood usually can’t be saved. We’ll give you an honest assessment on-site: what’s savable, what’s a hazard, and what it costs either way.
Is it safe to cut up a fallen tree myself with a chainsaw?
Storm-damaged trees are the most dangerous chainsaw work there is — trunks and limbs under load can spring, roll, or snap in directions that aren’t predictable without training. Chainsaw injuries spike after every Florida hurricane. Small clear limbs on open ground, fine. Anything under tension, on a structure, or overhead — call us. It is not worth the emergency room visit.
Should I wait for my insurance adjuster before cleanup starts?
No — document first, then make safe. Photograph and video the damage thoroughly from safe positions, then let us remove the immediate hazard; insurers expect reasonable steps to prevent further damage, and waiting days with a tree on your roof can make things worse. We provide before/during/after photos and itemized documentation your adjuster can use, so cleanup and your claim work together.
Documentation Your Insurer Will Ask For
Photographed Before We Cut
We photograph the damage as found — the tree, the point of failure and what it landed on — before any saw starts. Once the wood is gone that evidence cannot be recreated, and adjusters routinely ask for it.
A Written Scope, Not a Verbal Figure
You get the work and the price in writing. That is the document an insurer or property manager needs, and it is what protects you if the claim is questioned later.
What We Cannot Do
We are arborists, not adjusters. We will not tell you what your policy covers or what your claim is worth. We give you accurate records of the tree work and leave the claim to you and your insurer.
What Should You Do (and Never Do) Right After Storm Tree Damage?
The first hour after a hurricane or severe storm is when most injuries and insurance mistakes happen. Our post-storm cleanup crews see the same errors after every event in Palm Beach County — here’s the checklist we give every homeowner:
✅ DO
- Photograph everything first — the fallen tree, structural damage, and debris field, before anything is moved. Your insurance claim depends on it.
- Check for downed power lines and report them to FPL before approaching any tree.
- Keep everyone away from leaning trunks and limbs hung up in the canopy — they shift without warning.
- Call a fully insured local crew for anything touching a roof, fence, vehicle, or line.
❌ DON’T
- Never chainsaw limbs under tension — snapped trunks store spring-loaded force that can throw a log sideways.
- Don’t climb ladders into a damaged canopy — cracked branches above you are the #1 post-storm injury source.
- Don’t stack debris curbside during an active watch or warning — municipalities prohibit it and wind turns piles into projectiles.
- Don’t sign an Assignment of Benefits from a door-knocking contractor before talking to your insurer.
We document the damage with high-resolution photos and provide itemized invoices you can hand straight to your insurance company.

Who We Clear For After a Storm
Homeowners
One tree down, a fence crushed, a driveway blocked. We clear it, haul it and leave the property usable — usually in a single visit.
Property Owners and Landlords
Multiple addresses, tenants calling, and a need for records. We work through a list by priority, send written scopes per property, and keep the paperwork straight for your files.
HOAs and Commercial Sites
Common areas, entry roads, car parks and walkways where access has to reopen fast and liability matters. We coordinate with boards and managers and document the whole job.

Arborist-Led, Not Just a Crew With a Saw
Anyone can take a tree down. Knowing whether it needs to come down at all is the part that saves you money — and that is where our tree experts earn their keep. Every job starts with a proper look at the tree: species, structure, root condition, lean, decay, and what is underneath it.
What our tree professionals check before quoting
- Species and growth habit. A Live Oak, a Royal Palm and a Ficus each fail differently and need different cuts.
- Structural defects. Included bark, co-dominant stems, cavities and deadwood — the things that decide whether a tree survives the next storm.
- Root and soil condition. Sandy Palm Beach County soil, high water table and salt exposure all affect anchorage.
- Targets underneath. Roof, pool cage, driveway, fence, power lines — this drives both method and price.
- Pruning to standard. We prune to ANSI A300 practice: no lion-tailing, no hat-racking, no topping. Bad cuts create the hazard you were trying to remove.
Why it matters for storm cleanup
We are a single-fleet team — the same crew that assesses your tree does the work. Nothing gets subcontracted, nothing gets lost between a salesperson and a saw. And because we trim, remove, grind and replant, we can tell you honestly when a trim will solve the problem instead of a removal. If you want that judgement before committing, book a tree health and risk assessment.

Tree Damage Cleanup in Palm Beach County
Tree damage cleanup is the work that happens after the danger is gone: the fallen trunk across the lawn, the split limbs hung up in what is left of the canopy, the debris field that used to be your back garden. We clear all of it — cut, chipped, loaded and hauled away — and leave the site rakeable.
What fallen tree cleanup actually involves
- Fallen tree cleanup. Sectioning the trunk where it lies, clearing the root plate, and hauling the wood off site. Not stacking it by your fence.
- Hanging and broken limbs. The widow-makers still lodged overhead come down first — they are the reason a cleanup crew is not the same as a landscaper.
- Storm damage tree cleanup across the property. Fronds, branches, shredded canopy debris and anything driven into fencing or screen enclosures.
- Full haul-away. Chipped on site where access allows, loaded and removed where it does not. Cleanup and disposal are included, never quoted as an extra.
- Photo documentation. Before-and-after images for your insurance claim, taken as we work.
Fallen tree clean up after a hurricane or named storm
After a named storm every crew in Palm Beach County is booked. We prioritise by hazard — anything blocking access, touching a structure or resting on a power line goes first, then general tree damage cleanup by neighbourhood. If a tree is still an active hazard rather than debris, that is 24/7 emergency tree service and it jumps the queue.
Is it cleanup, or is it still an emergency?
- Cleanup: the tree is already down and stable. Nothing is on the house, nothing is on a line. It is a mess, not a danger.
- Emergency: a tree is on the roof, leaning on the structure, blocking your only exit, or tangled with a power line. Call (561) 246-3326 now, day or night.
Not sure which? Call and describe it. We would rather triage it on the phone for free than have you guess.
