- Hazardous Limbs: Tree limbs that are broken but not yet fallen, posing a risk of sudden collapse.
- Blocked Pathways: Trees or limbs that have fallen and are blocking essential pathways or roads, preventing passage or access to property.
- Electrical Line Interference: Tree branches are in contact with electrical lines, posing a fire hazard or causing power disruptions.
- Sudden Tree Disease: Rapid onset of disease that could cause the tree to become unstable quickly, requiring immediate attention.
- Pest Infestation: A severe pest infestation that is causing rapid deterioration of the tree, putting it at risk of falling.

Our Rapid Response Process
Step 1: Immediate Contact
As soon as you recognize a tree-related emergency, take photographs and call your insurance, then call our emergency hotline. Our team is always on standby to assist you.
Step 2: Preliminary Assessment
Upon receiving your call, our experienced staff will conduct a quick over-the-phone assessment to gauge the level of emergency and advise immediate precautionary actions, if needed.
Step 3: Dispatch of Emergency Crew
Based on the assessment, an emergency crew specializing in tree services will be dispatched to your location. Our goal is to reach you as swiftly as possible.
Step 4: On-Site Evaluation
Once on-site, our team will perform a detailed evaluation to confirm the emergency status of the situation and to plan the safest, most effective course of action.
Step 5: Emergency Mitigation
After your approval of the proposed action plan, our crew will proceed with emergency services that may include tree removal, limb cutting, or securing hazardous areas with safety equipment.
Step 6: Clean Up and Safety Measures
After mitigating the immediate risks, our crew will focus on cleaning the site and implementing temporary safety measures like barricades or caution tape, as required.
Step 7: Detailed Assessment and Future Prevention
Once the emergency is resolved, a more detailed assessment is carried out to identify any other potential risks in the area. We can then advise you on longer-term actions to prevent future emergencies.
Step 8: Final Report and Billing
A final report outlining all actions taken and recommendations for future measures will be presented. After your review and approval, billing procedures will commence, with various payment options available for your convenience.
Safety Guidelines for Tree-Related Emergencies
- Stay Calm and Assess the Situation: The first step in any emergency is to remain calm. Take a moment to assess the immediate dangers posed by the situation.
- Contact Authorities if Necessary: If the situation poses an immediate risk to human life or property, call emergency services before doing anything else.
- Secure the Area: If it’s safe to do so, set up barriers or use caution tape to mark the hazardous zone around the fallen or damaged tree.
- Keep a Safe Distance: Stay at least twice the length away from the damaged or fallen tree, especially if it is leaning or has broken limbs hanging from it.
- Notify Neighbors: If the tree poses a risk to neighboring properties or common areas, notify your neighbors to stay clear of the area.
- Call AQL Tree Service Emergency Services: Contact our emergency hotline for professional advice and immediate service.
- Document the Scene: Take photos or videos of the situation from a safe distance; this may help in insurance claims or further tree assessments.
- Do Not Attempt DIY Measures: Unless you are experienced in tree services, do not attempt to remove the tree or large limbs yourself, as this could exacerbate the situation.
- Remove Smaller Debris: Only if it is safe, clear away smaller branches or leaves that are not entangled or under tension.
- Follow AQL Tree Service Directions: Once our emergency crew arrives, follow any additional safety guidelines they provide to ensure a controlled and safe resolution to the emergency.

“The team is fantastic. We had a limb come down in a recent wind storm and they came out the same day I called, luckily for me they had an opening. They cut and left the wood as I had asked and cleaned up more than expected. I re-hired them to come and take care of the rest of the trees over hanging my property. Truly the best experience! Thank you guys!!”

“Had a lot of limbs down from storm. They were able to fit me in to clean up the mess. Got a bid for trimming and it was very reasonable and they came with a crew of 8 and got it done in no time. Very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. Definitely would recommend this company.”
