Who is responsible for cleaning up debris from someone else’s tree that falls on my property?

They did a great job on painting the house. Too bad they painted over 2 1\2 solar panels. It cost me $425.00 to clean the overspray. I would have appreciated Ricks chipping in a little of the cost to repair the damage.

We have used a few different companies for tree and brush removal and no one worked as hard as Israelâ s crew. The pricing is fair, the crews were respectful and they exceeded my expectations!

They were timely and efficient. They could have been better on cleanup and communication about where I wanted the chipped wood to be left.

Split a huge quantity of oak rounds and chipped debris from brush clearance over a 2-day period. Worked hard, did a great job and left the area clean. All for a reasonable cost. Would definitely use them again.

I had painted myself into a real mess. A handyman I use told me he could spray my cabinets to a smooth finish if I primed them first. So prime them all I did. When he began to spray, the disaster unfolded. I had splatters and streaks and tears. I politely told him this wasn’t going to work....

We hired them twice. The second time we did a day rate to clear a hillside. We knew they would not be able to do everything. However, instead of doing some cutting and them some chipping, they did lots of cutting and then did not have time for clean up or chipping. They left a mess. They...

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Reducing household waste is the best way to save money on junk removal costs in the long run. Reusable kitchen, pantry, and cleaning supplies will make a large dent, as will creating an easy compost and recycling system in your home. Additionally, create an ongoing practice of recycling, donating, or repurposing items that are ready to go.

No. Unfortunately, leaf removal is your responsibility, no matter what tree the leaves come from. It would be pretty hard to regulate leaves since they can be moved by the wind or water. Imagine the detective skills it would take to determine which tree each leaf came from and who was then liable for removing it. Instead, plan to remove any leaves on your property.

Burning yard waste can be an efficient method for large amounts. However, burning has health and environmental risks. Smoke can aggravate respiratory conditions, expose you to carbon monoxide, and cause irritation. Fire produces greenhouse gases and may start wildfires. Minimize risks by burning clean, dry, natural materials. Stay upwind and monitor the fire closely.

If debris from a tree located in a government-owned space (such as a sidewalk, public school, or government property) falls in your yard, it is the city’s or state government’s responsibility to have the debris cleaned up. On the other hand, most states only hold a neighbor liable for cleaning up their tree’s debris if they were negligent in caring for the tree.

To remove a shrub, start by cutting back the shrub using pruning shears, loppers, or a chainsaw. Next, dig around the base of the shrub with a pointed shovel to expose its root system. Then, use a shovel or a mattock to loosen the roots, making it easier to pull or lift the shrub from the ground. For larger shrubs or stubborn root systems, attaching a chain or strap to the base and using a vehicle to pull it out can be effective. Ensure proper disposal of the shrub and its debris following local waste disposal guidelines.
