Large and Crane Tree Removal in Collierville, TN
Some trees can't be felled — the ones leaning over the house, squeezed between the pool and the fence, or too dead and brittle to climb. A mature oak in a tight Collierville backyard has nowhere to go and everything to hit. That's what the crane is for.
Crane-assisted removal lifts the tree out in sections — each cut piece is rigged and flown over the roof, the pool, the fence line, and set down gently where the crew is waiting. Nothing drops. The climber never has to take a piece bigger than the rigging can hold, and the dead, hollow, or storm-compromised trees that are too dangerous to climb conventionally become a straightforward, controlled job.
If you have a large tree overhanging your home or in a spot with no drop zone, call and tell us about the access. A site visit tells us in minutes whether a crane makes your removal safer, faster, and cleaner than any other method.
Signs your tree needs a crane
- A large tree stands directly over your house, garage, or pool
- The tree is dead or hollow — too brittle to climb safely
- There's no open drop zone anywhere around the trunk
- The tree leans toward a structure with no room to rig a pull
- Other companies told you the tree was too dangerous to take down
How crane removal works
1 Plan the picks
We walk the site and plan every lift: where the crane sets up, where each section flies, where it lands. Access matters — a crane needs a solid setup spot, and we figure out gate widths, driveway capacity, and overhead lines before the crane day, not during it.
2 Rig and lift in sections
The climber rigs each section to the crane, the cut is made, and the piece is flown out and lowered to the ground crew. Big pieces, long reaches, tight quarters — the crane does the heavy work while people stay clear of the drop zone.
3 Protect the property
Crane mats protect driveways and lawns from the equipment's weight, and every lift path is planned to clear the roof, the pool, and the fence. The whole point of the crane is control — nothing falls, nothing drags, nothing crushes.
4 Grind, haul, restore
Once the tree is down, the stump gets ground, everything is hauled, and the crane mats come up. The yard gets put back the way we found it, minus the problem tree.
Big trees on Collierville's big lots
Collierville's selling point — large lots with mature oaks — is also what makes its removals hard. A sixty-foot water oak planted close to a house in the 1980s is now a sixty-foot problem with a roof directly underneath it, a pool ten feet to the side, and a privacy fence boxing in the third. There's no drop zone, and the tree is too big to section down through the canopy without swinging pieces over the house. This is crane country. The same subdivisions that give Collierville its canopy — big trees, close quarters, valuable landscaping worth protecting — are exactly where crane-assisted removal earns its keep: the tree comes out in controlled lifts, and the pool, the roof, and the fence all survive the day.
