"I used Shawn at SouthState for underbrush clearing, tree removal, mulching, and general land cleanup on my 5-acre property in Oakes Estates. He transformed what looked like a dense forest into something that resembles a national park. I've hired other companies for similar projects in the past, but Shawn's work truly stood out. First, when he says he'll be there, he shows up—a quality that's harder to find than it should be. Second, SouthState uses top-of-the-line equipment, which makes a noticeable difference in both the quality and efficiency of the work. What impressed me most, however, was Shawn's knowledge and willingness to walk me through the pros and cons of the different service options. He helped me understand that the cheapest option isn't always the best value. Spending a little more to have the job done correctly the first time can save a lot of money and frustration compared to hiring someone later to fix another contractor's mistakes. Highly recommended"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.

The best tool to cut trees is a chain saw. You can adjust your chain saw to the correct size based on the size of the branches, offering you the fastest and cleanest cut for medium- to large-sized trees. Depending on the type of chainsaw you use, you can cut through larger trees than you would with a more manual tool like an ax.

Trimming your palm trees once or twice per year keeps them healthy and robust. Caring for palm trees includes cutting off brown leaves to prevent wildfires and pathway obstruction. However, you don’t want to over-trim the palm tree. Cutting too many branches off will weaken the tree and prevent future growth. And it’s essential to have a strong, healthy palm tree during hurricane season to prevent safety risks or property damage.
