Heavy wood. Lifted clear.
When a tree is too big, too close to a house or too weak to climb, a crane picks each section out and sets it down away from everything that matters.
- Priced by: Crane time, tree size, set-up space and the amount of wood
- Methods: Crane with climber and ground crew
What it is, and why it matters.
Some trees are in places where sectional rigging is not enough: next to a pool, over a house, behind a locked gate or beyond the reach of a bucket truck. A crane changes that. The operator holds each section while the climber cuts and then swings it out and lowers it to a protected spot.
Nashville Tree Service coordinates crane-assisted removals across Middle Tennessee, planning the setup location, the lift sequence and the cleanup. It is the safest way to take down many big, awkward or weakened trees, and often faster than rigging by hand.
Four things done right.
Safer for weak trees
The tree is held by the crane while it is cut, so no one depends on poor wood.
Fast work
Big sections come out in minutes, which shortens the day.
Less damage
Sections are set down away from roofs, pools and landscaping.
Clear planning
The lift plan and the cleanup are written into the price.

03Crane-Assisted Tree Removal: common questions
When is a crane worth it?
When the tree is over a structure, very large, hollow or in a spot that equipment cannot reach, a crane is often the safest and sometimes the least expensive way to remove it.
Will a crane damage my lawn?
Cranes are heavy, so we use mats where needed and plan the setup to limit damage. We discuss it before the visit.
How do I get an estimate for crane-assisted tree removal?
Fill in the form or call or text 615-431-3789. A few photos and a rough height usually give us what we need, and we send a written price. Larger jobs start with a short visit.
