Storm / fallen tree guide

Storm damage is messy. Your first request can still be clear.

For storm damage, providers usually need to understand what fell, what it landed on or blocked, whether anything is still hanging, and how easy the area is to access.

Details that can help a provider understand the job.

You do not need to diagnose the tree yourself. The goal is simply to give an independent provider enough context to decide whether the request fits their work and how to follow up.

✓Whether the tree is fully down, partially down, or has broken hanging limbs
✓What the tree is resting on or blocking
✓Whether vehicles or equipment can reach the area
✓Photos showing both the damage and the surrounding space
✓Whether cleanup, hauling, or stump work may also be needed

Situations worth treating more urgently

!The tree is blocking access that must remain open
!Large broken limbs are suspended overhead
!The tree is resting against a structure or has caused fresh property damage
!The situation is changing as wind, rain, or soil conditions continue

Power-line safety: If a tree or limb is touching a power line, stay away and contact the electric utility or emergency services. Do not approach it to take photos.
