Complete Tree Removal — Not Just Cutting It Down
Tree Removal Company Lake Worth, Florida
Most South Florida homeowners wait too long. By then, a dead or damaged tree doesn’t fall on schedule — it falls in a storm, onto a roof, or into a neighbor’s yard.
A properly handled tree removal protects your property, eliminates liability, and opens your yard up for something better. Every removal Tree Maid handles starts with a site assessment and ends with a clean property. No logs left behind, no stump sticking up, no mess for you to deal with after we leave. We handle the whole thing — from the first cut to the final rake.
Tree Removal Services We Offer — What We Remove & How We Do It
Dead & Hazardous Tree Removal
Dead, dying, and structurally compromised trees are one South Florida storm away from becoming a $50,000 insurance claim.
We assess the risk accurately and remove the tree on your timeline — before the weather decides for you. Root failure, internal decay, leaning trunks, and crown dieback are all signs we evaluate on-site before recommending removal.
Large Tree Removal & Crane Service in Palm Beach County
Massive trees near your home, pool, or utility lines require more than a chainsaw and a plan.
We use crane-assisted removal and sectional rigging techniques to bring large trees down with precision — even in the tightest spaces, even 10 feet from your pool enclosure. The right equipment makes the difference between a clean removal and a repair bill.
Stump Grinding & Debris Hauling
Every removal can include complete stump grinding below grade and full debris hauling from your property.
We don’t leave logs, brush piles, or wood chips for you to manage. When we’re done, the area is flat, clean, and ready for sod, new planting, or construction — whatever you have planned for the space.
Tree Relocation
Not every tree that needs to move needs to disappear. If a healthy tree is in the wrong spot — a redesigned yard, a new driveway, a pool addition — relocation may be an option worth exploring before removal.
We assess the species, root system, and size to determine if the tree can survive a move, then handle the dig, transport, and replant properly. It’s not always possible, but when it is, you keep a tree worth keeping.
Emergency Tree Removal After South Florida Storms — Same-Day Response
When a tree falls on your home, blocks your driveway, or lands on your vehicle, you need a crew that moves fast.
We prioritize emergency calls across Palm Beach County and respond as quickly as possible — often the same day. Call (561) 246-3326 directly. Don’t wait for a callback form.
Palm Tree Removal — All Species, All Sizes, South Florida
Queen palms, coconut palms, Sabal palms, Royal palms, Foxtail palms — we remove all palm species throughout South Florida.
Whether it’s a single leaning palm threatening your fence or a full row of overgrown palms that no longer fit the design of your property, we remove them cleanly and efficiently without damaging the surrounding landscape.
Full Property Tree Clearance — New Construction & Storm Damage Resets
New construction sites, neglected lots, and storm-damaged properties that need a complete reset — we clear entire properties efficiently, removing every tree, stump, and debris load in a single coordinated job. When the crew leaves, the land is ready for whatever comes next.
Tree Replacement
When a tree has to come down, we can replace it. Through our partner tree farm, we hand-select mature palms and trees that match what you lost — by size, species, and character. Not nursery saplings that take a decade to fill in, but established trees that look right from day one.
If you’re losing a shade tree, an ornamental, or a signature palm, we source and install a replacement that fits your property.

The Real Cost of Ignoring a Dangerous Tree in South Florida
Why South Florida Homeowners Remove Trees Before Storm Season
The right tree removal decision pays for itself. Here’s what’s on the line when a dangerous tree stays standing.
Prevents Catastrophic Storm Damage
A single tree falling on your home during a South Florida storm can cause $10,000 to $50,000 or more in structural damage — roof penetration, pool cage destruction, fence collapse, and foundation damage are all common outcomes. Planned removal before storm season costs a fraction of that. It’s not a precaution, it’s the financially smarter decision.
Eliminates Liability Before It Becomes a Lawsuit
If your hazardous tree damages a neighbor’s property or injures someone, Florida law can hold you responsible — particularly if you were aware of the risk and failed to act. That exposure grows with every storm season and every month a dangerous tree stays standing. Removing it removes the liability entirely.
Avoids Emergency Removal Costs
Emergency tree removal after a storm event costs three to five times more than scheduled removal — before you factor in the property repair bill. Trees that were identifiable risks before the storm become expensive emergencies after it. Our team can assess your property before storm season and tell you honestly which trees need to come down now.
Opens Your Property Up for Something Better
A dead or overgrown tree doesn’t just create risk — it takes up space, blocks light, stresses surrounding plantings, and brings down the overall look of your property. Removing it is the first step toward a yard that actually looks and functions the way you want it to. Whether you replant, sod, or bring in a full landscape design — it starts with a clean slate.
Hiring Tree Removal in Lake Worth Made Easy
Straightforward. No surprises. No handoffs to a subcontractor. We handle every step from quote to final cleanup.
Step 1: You Call or Text
Reach us at (561) 246-3326. Tell us what you’re dealing with — what the tree is, where it is on the property, and what’s nearby.
We’ll set up a time to come see it in person.
Step 2: In-Person Assessment
We visit your property and evaluate the tree’s condition, size, species, location relative to structures, and equipment access.
We determine the right removal method — straight fell, sectional removal, or crane-assisted — and explain it clearly before anything is scheduled.
Step 3 — Review & Approve
We walk you through the recommended removal method, the timeline, and the final price — in writing — before a single cut is made. You see exactly what you’re getting and what it costs. No work begins until you’ve approved every detail. No surprises, no add-ons at the end of the job.
Step 4: Permitting (Where Required)
Many cities in Palm Beach County require a tree removal permit — particularly for protected species or trees above a certain trunk diameter.
We identify whether a permit is needed for your tree and your city, advise you on the process, and can assist with the application so your removal stays fully compliant.
Step 5: Safe, Controlled Removal
Full removal using the right equipment for the specific job — chipper truck, crane, bucket truck, or ground crew with sectional rigging, depending on the tree and the site conditions.
Every section comes down in a controlled sequence. No felling toward structures, no improvising, no damage to your property.
Step 6: Complete Cleanup
All branches, logs, brush, and wood chips are removed from your property as part of the job. Stump grinding is included if requested and removes the stump below grade so you can sod, plant, or build over the space.
We leave the site clean, flat, and ready — whether that means new landscaping, a fresh sod installation, or prep for construction. We don’t leave until it looks right.
Florida Tree Removal Services For Palm Beach County — Lake Worth, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach & Beyond
Every city in Palm Beach County has its own tree challenges — different species, different soil, different storm exposure. Tree removal in Palm Beach County isn’t one-size-fits-all. Lake Worth has protected canopy ordinances. Delray Beach’s barrier island properties deal with salt-damaged trees that look healthy until they fall. Wellington’s clay soil means root systems behave completely differently than coastal cities.
We’ve been working these neighborhoods since 2015. We know which trees fail first in a storm, how coastal sandy soil affects root systems, and what it takes to bring down a large tree 10 feet from a pool screen. That knowledge isn’t in a manual — it comes from 10+ years of working in these specific communities.
Tree Removal in Lake Worth, FL
We live and work here. From the Intracoastal to the historic streets of College Park, we know Lake Worth’s sandy coastal soil, its Ficus-heavy older neighborhoods, and exactly which species cause the most problems when a storm comes through. Private homeowners here have trusted us since day one — with tight lots, aging trees, and structures that can’t afford a mistake, that trust is earned job by job.
Tree Removal in Greenacres, FL
Greenacres sits right between Lake Worth and Wellington — which means our backyard runs from established residential streets to private estates, working farms, and corporate campuses along Southern Blvd. We work with homeowners, property managers, and business owners here who need a local crew that knows the area and shows up when they say they will.
Tree Removal Boynton Beach, FL
From waterfront homes near the Boynton Inlet to well-established inland properties, Boynton Beach’s homeowners and property managers call us for hazardous tree removal, storm prep, and clearing ahead of renovation or new construction. We know Boynton’s invasive Australian Pine problem and handle those removals regularly — they’re deceptive trees that fail suddenly and need to be taken down right.
Tree Removal Delray Beach, FL
Delray Beach’s barrier island estates, Atlantic Ave corridor homes, and Pineapple Grove properties deal with salt air, mature ornamental canopy trees, and tight lots where mistakes are expensive. We work with private homeowners and property managers who need precision removal without disrupting an established landscape. Royal Poincianas, Sea Grapes, and large palms — we’ve taken down all of them in Delray.
Tree Removal in Boca Raton, FL
Boca Raton’s private estates, canal-front properties, and infill development lots all present their own removal challenges. Tight access, expensive surrounding landscaping, and zero room for error. We work with private homeowners and developers who need the job done correctly the first time — clean removal, complete haul-away, and a property left ready for whatever comes next.
Tree Removal in West Palm Beach, FL
West Palm Beach has a mix between historic distrcits and the growing Clematis and downtown area. We have diverse palm and tree species found in Old Northwood, El Cid, Flamingo Park, and the Historic Northwest, near downtown with ER Bradley’s and the waterfront. These are older neighborhoods with large, mature trees — Live Oaks, Mahogany, Gumbo Limbo — that require experience and the right equipment to bring down safely. Private homeowners in these historic districts trust us with their most significant trees.
Tree Removal in Wellington, FL
Wellington’s large lots, western clay soils, and equestrian properties require a different approach than coastal South Florida. The tree species are different, the soil conditions are different, and the scale of the jobs is often larger. We work with homeowners and property owners managing acreage — whether it’s one hazardous tree or a larger clearing job ahead of a build or renovation.
Tree Removal in Royal Palm Beach, FL
From established subdivisions near Royal Palm Beach Commons Park to larger semi-rural lots bordering Wellington and The Acreage, we handle everything from a single hazardous tree on a private property to larger clearing projects for homeowners and developers building on undeveloped or overgrown land.
Tree Removal in Palm Beach Gardens, FL
From preserve-lined streets near Abacoa to private estates along the waterways, Palm Beach Gardens homeowners and property managers call us for careful removals where what surrounds the tree matters as much as the tree itself. We work here regularly for homeowners, property developers clearing lots, and property managers handling a hazardous situation before it becomes an emergency.
Tree Removal Lantana, FL
Sitting between Lake Worth and Boynton Beach along the Intracoastal, Lantana properties deal with real salt air exposure and mature trees on older lots that haven’t always had consistent care. We work with homeowners along the water and inland residents who need reliable, careful removal — especially ahead of storm season when a compromised tree becomes a serious liability.
Our Local Advantage
Our Partner Tree Farm — Mature Palms & Trees for Design, Replacement & Development
Whether you’re building a new landscape, replacing a dead or diseased tree, or sourcing mature specimens for a development project — we have direct access to palms and trees most landscapers simply can’t get. Through our partner farm, we hand-select by size, shape, and species. No nursery leftovers. No waiting years for small stock to fill in.
The result is replacing your dead or diseases tree or palm, with a healthy and mature one. Develpers can see their dream grow into life fast with mature trees, instead of a collection of small plants waiting years to fill in for privacy or presentation.
🌴
Mature Palms — All Varieties
Sabal palms, Queen palms, Royal palms, Foxtail palms, and more — mature specimens available in sizes that create immediate visual impact.
🌳
Established Shade & Ornamental Trees
Live Oaks, Gumbo Limbo, Sea Grape, Mahogany, and native flowering trees — many years old and ready to anchor your landscape from day one.
✋
Hand-Selected for Your Project
We don’t order from a list. We go to the farm, walk the rows, and choose the specific trees that match your design — by shape, size, and character.
⚡
Installed with the Right Equipment
Large, mature trees require the right equipment to move and plant properly. We have it. No subcontracting, no delays, no excuses.
Our Local Tree Removal Advantage
South Florida Trees Are Different. So Is Our Tree Removal Approach.
This is one of the biggest advantages of working with a company that has been operating in Palm Beach County for over a decade — we know the trees. South Florida has species, soil conditions, root behaviors, and storm patterns that don’t exist anywhere else in the continental U.S. That knowledge changes how a removal is planned and executed. And when your pool, roof, or fence is 10 feet away, that planning is what protects you.
Invasive Trees in South Florida — Australian Pine, Ficus & Brazilian Pepper
Australian Pine, Ficus, Brazilian Pepper, and Melaleuca are widespread across Palm Beach County — and each one requires a specific removal approach. Ficus root systems extend far beyond what the canopy suggests. Australian Pines fail at the root, not the trunk. Brazilian Pepper grows in dense multi-stem clusters that require a completely different technique than a single-trunk tree.
We’ve removed all of them repeatedly, and we know exactly how each one behaves when it comes down.
Hurricane Season Tree Removal — Why Timing Matters in Palm Beach County
South Florida’s storm season changes how trees fail. Wind-thrown root balls from previous storms, previously topped trees with weakened crowns, and trunks compromised by repeated wind load all create hidden hazards that aren’t obvious until the next storm hits.
Removing at-risk trees before June is always cheaper and safer than dealing with them after — and a lot less stressful.
Trees Near FPL Power Lines — Safe Removal in Palm Beach County
Trees growing near FPL service lines, transformers, and distribution poles require careful planning and the right approach to utility proximity.
We know how to handle removals near live power correctly — no improvising, no cutting corners, no putting your service at risk.
If coordination with FPL is required for your specific situation, we will walk you through what that looks like before scheduling begins.
Tight Lots & Pool-Side Removal — Executed Without Collateral Damage
South Florida residential lots are dense. Trees positioned 8 to 15 feet from a pool, screen enclosure, fence line, or neighboring structure cannot simply be felled — they have to come down in pieces, in the right order, with the right rigging.
We have the equipment and the trained crew to do exactly that. Every removal near a structure is planned before the first cut is made.
Tree Removal Frequently Asked Questions
The most common tree removal and palm tree removal questions we get from homeowners and businesses. Have one not listed? Contact us, as we would be glad to help.
What makes Tree Maid different from other landscape designers in Lake Worth?
Two things most designers can’t offer: direct access to a partner tree farm for mature, hand-selected palms and trees, and the equipment and crew to build complete outdoor spaces — fire pits, pool surrounds, full garden builds. Most landscape designers stop at planting. We design and build the whole thing.
How much does tree removal cost in Lake Worth and South Florida?
Tree removal in South Florida typically ranges from $350 to $2,500+ depending on the size of the tree, the species, where it’s located on the property, and how much equipment access we have. Small trees under 30 feet generally run $350–$700. Medium trees between 30 and 60 feet average $700–$1,500. Large trees over 60 feet, or trees positioned close to a structure, pool, or power line, can run $1,500–$3,000 or more. Emergency removal after a storm costs significantly more than scheduled work. Tree Maid provides free written estimates after an in-person site visit — call (561) 246-3326 to set one up.
Is Tree Maid licensed and insured for tree removal in Florida?
Yes. Tree Maid is fully licensed and insured for tree removal throughout Palm Beach County and South Florida. We carry general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. Before hiring any tree company, ask to see their current certificate of insurance. If a crew member is injured on your property and the company isn’t properly insured, you may be held financially responsible. This is one of the most important questions to ask before anyone picks up a chainsaw on your property.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Palm Beach County?
Yes, in many cases. Most cities in Palm Beach County require a tree removal permit — particularly for protected species, trees above a certain trunk diameter, or trees on commercial properties. Lake Worth, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, and West Palm Beach all have local tree ordinances, and the requirements vary by city, by species, and sometimes by zoning. Tree Maid is familiar with the permit process across all the cities we serve. We’ll tell you before we start whether a permit is required for your specific tree and property.
How quickly can you respond to emergency tree removal?
For active hazards — trees that have fallen on a structure, vehicle, or are blocking access to your property — we respond as quickly as possible and can often be there the same day. Call (561) 246-3326 directly rather than filling out a web form. After a major storm event across Palm Beach County, demand is high, but we prioritize active hazard situations and will tell you honestly where you are in the queue and when to expect us.
What happens to the tree and all the debris after removal?
Everything comes with us. We remove all branches, logs, brush, and wood chips from your property as part of the standard removal. Stump grinding is available as an add-on — we grind the stump below grade so you can sod, plant, or build over the area without a raised stump in the way. When we leave, the area is clean, flat, and ready for whatever comes next. We don’t leave anything behind for you to deal with.
What types of trees does Tree Maid remove?
We remove all species common to South Florida — invasive species like Australian Pine, Ficus, Brazilian Pepper, and Melaleuca; native and ornamental trees including Royal Poinciana, Live Oak, Mahogany, Gumbo Limbo, Sea Grape, and Strangler Fig; and all palm species including coconut palms, queen palms, royal palms, sabal palms, and foxtail palms. Small ornamentals or 80-foot canopy trees — the species and the size both factor into the removal plan but neither one is off the table.
Can you remove a tree that’s very close to my house, pool, or power line?
Yes — and this is exactly the situation where the difference between a professional removal and an amateur one becomes most obvious. Trees within 10 to 15 feet of a structure, pool enclosure, fence line, or power service entry cannot be felled — they have to come down in controlled sections using rigging techniques that prevent any piece from landing where it shouldn’t. We have the equipment, the trained crew, and the experience to handle these removals cleanly. We do them regularly throughout Palm Beach County.
What’s the difference between tree removal and tree trimming?
Tree trimming — also called pruning — removes specific branches to improve the tree’s structure, health, clearance, or appearance while leaving the tree in place. Tree removal takes the entire tree: trunk, root collar, and typically the stump via grinding. Removal is the right call when a tree is dead, severely diseased, structurally compromised, in the wrong location, or posing an active risk to people or property. If you’re not sure which your situation calls for, our free site visit will give you a clear answer and an honest recommendation.
