Puyallup is two different places for a tree crew. On the valley floor along the river and around downtown and the fairgrounds, the trees are cottonwoods, alders and old orchard trees in soft ground, and the calls are about cottonwoods dropping limbs and roots finding the sewer line. Up on South Hill, along Meridian, Shaw Road and out toward Sunrise and Graham, the subdivisions were cut into fir forest and the firs that were left along the back fences are now 100 feet over the houses.
Cottonwoods on the valley floor
Cottonwoods grow fast, get huge and break. A big one over a house in the valley is a removal we do often: climbed, rigged and lowered in sections, because the wood is heavy and brittle and nothing about it should free fall. The stumps are large and soft and grind quickly.
Fir lines behind South Hill subdivisions
Developers left strips of fir as a buffer behind a lot of South Hill homes. Twenty years on, those firs are tall, thin from growing in a stand, and leaning over the fence. We thin them so the wind passes through, lift them off the roofs, or take out the ones that are dead or leaning. Some of these strips are in tracts owned by the HOA; see HOA tree service if the tree is in common ground.
Permits in Puyallup
Puyallup regulates removal of larger trees and trees near the river, streams and steep slopes more than some neighbors do, and work in the right of way needs the city. We will tell you if your tree looks like one the city wants to hear about; the planning desk can confirm it.

Tree service questions from Puyallup
Do you cover South Hill and Sunrise?
Yes, all of Puyallup and South Hill out to Graham and Sumner.
Can you remove a cottonwood next to my house?
Yes. Cottonwoods are climbed and taken down in sections because the wood breaks unpredictably. It is a job for a crew, not a chainsaw and a ladder.
Do you grind stumps in Puyallup?
Yes, with our own grinder, usually in the same visit as the removal.
Can you get into a fenced backyard?
Our walk behind grinder and mini loader fit through a standard gate; the rest is carried by hand.
