There's a reason we run a grapple truck.
What you're seeing in the video used to mean a crew with tarps, wheelbarrows, and a couple hours of hand-loading after the saws went quiet. With the loader, it's a few minutes of work before we pull off the property.
The right equipment makes our job easier. More importantly, it gets us out of your driveway faster, your yard back to normal sooner, and skips the debris pile that would otherwise sit around waiting on a second trip.
Clean cuts up top, clean ground when we leave. That's how a tree job should end.

If you have ash trees on your property in Wright County, this map matters.

The teal areas on this Minnesota Department of Agriculture map show counties under formal quarantine for Emerald Ash Borer (EAB). Wright County is one of 59 counties confirmed statewide. EAB kills ash trees — usually within 2–4 years of infestation — and Minnesota has more ash trees than any other state.

Here's something worth knowing: whether to treat or remove an ash tree isn't a one-size-fits-all decision. It depends on the tree's health, size, location, proximity to structures, and how far EAB has progressed in the area. Reading all of that accurately is what an ISA Certified Arborist is trained to do.

We wrote up the full treat-or-remove decision framework — what to watch for, when treatment actually makes sense, and how the long-term costs compare: https://www.treetecllc.com/post/emerald-ash-borer-minnesota-treat-or-remove

At TreeTec, EAB evaluations are handled by an ISA Certified Arborist with hands-on experience treating EAB by trunk injection — the method the MN Department of Agriculture identifies as most effective for protecting valued ash trees.

When we come out, we'll tell you:
• Whether your tree is a good candidate for treatment
• Whether it's too far gone and should be removed before it becomes hazardous
• What the realistic cost and timeline look like either way

No pressure, no upsell. Just a straight read from someone qualified to give one.

Southern Minnesota already saw tornados this spring. We're not done with storm season — we're just getting started.

Got a tree that's been nagging at you? Maybe it's leaning toward the house, has big dead limbs up top, or just looks rougher than it used to. That's worth a second opinion before the next round of wind hits.

We'll come out, take a look, and tell you straight — does it need to come down, get pruned back, or is it fine to leave alone. No pressure either way.

The photos speak for themselves. We've includes some photos of what happens when a questionable tree doesn't get addressed in time.
Message us and we'll get you on the schedule.
