Municipal Tree Service in Chicagoland

Since 1989, Pro Tree Service has partnered with local townships, villages and cities across Chicagoland and northwest Indiana. The work keeps public spaces safe and well maintained. Municipalities operate under real resource constraints. So tree maintenance is usually the thing that slips, until a limb comes down over a sidewalk. Our municipal tree service in Chicago and the surrounding counties absorbs that work. Furthermore, it does so without adding headcount to your public works department.

Partnering with Pro Tree Service reduces the risk of personal injury and property damage. That risk comes from overgrown or hazardous trees on public ground. Our ISA Certified Arborists lead crews that work to recognized industry standards. Moreover, we finish every job to specification and within budget.

Our Municipal Tree Care Services

We provide a full range of municipal tree services, including:

• Tree & Bush Removal — storm-damaged, diseased or hazardous trees and shrubs.
• Stump Removal & Grinding — eliminate stumps that create trip hazards or obstruct walkways.
• Tree Trimming & Pruning — clearance pruning over streets and sidewalks, and structural pruning of young parkway stock.
• Land & Lot Clearing — prepare ground for development, road widening or public projects.

Bonds, Registrations and Standards

For a village purchase order, the paperwork is usually the gating item rather than the price. We hold bonds and contractor registrations across more than thirty Chicagoland municipalities. We also keep them current. So a bid does not stall while a registration goes in. Furthermore, we issue certificates of insurance naming the correct entity, along with bond confirmation and W-9s. We can usually turn a COI around the same day.

Our crews work to ANSI A300 pruning standards and ANSI Z133 safety standards. That is what most municipal specifications call for by name. Crews are our own employees on our payroll and workers’ compensation policy, rather than subcontractors. So the coverage question stays simple after an injury on municipal ground.

Why Municipal Arborists Choose Pro Tree Service

We make tree care straightforward for municipalities, so your staff can focus on everything else. We have provided tree removal across Chicago and the suburbs since 1989. Indeed, much of our municipal work is repeat business with the same public works departments year after year.

• Certified and insured — ISA Certified Arborists leading every crew, full coverage documented on request.
• Timely and budget-conscious — projects completed on schedule and within municipal budgets.
• Best price guarantee — we match or beat any reasonable written estimate.

Storm and Emergency Work

When a significant wind or ice event moves through, every municipality in the region needs crews in the same hour. So we stage in the affected area rather than spreading across the map. Furthermore, we will tell you honestly where you sit in the queue. That beats promising a window we cannot hold. See our emergency and storm response page for how we prioritize.
