Tree Service in Memphis, TN
Shelby County • Removals, trimming, stump grinding, storm response and land clearing — about 20 minutes from our Millington shop.
Tree work in Memphis, Tennessee
Memphis is a genuinely old urban forest, and that is the whole story. The willow oaks lining Central Gardens, Chickasaw Gardens and East Memphis went in generations ago and a great many of them are now at the far end of their service life — big, beautiful, and quietly hollowing out at the base. Add heavy clay soil that swings from waterlogged to concrete, decades of sidewalk and driveway work through root plates, and a storm pattern that delivers straight-line winds most summers, and you get the failures we get called to constantly: a mature oak dropping a limb the size of a normal tree onto a 1920s roof with no attic clearance to spare.
What we see most in Memphis
The trees we work on around Memphis are mostly willow oak, water oak, southern red oak, sweetgum, hackberry, silver maple, bald cypress, loblolly pine — and each of those has its own failure habits. Water oaks decay quietly at the union. Loblolly pines snap rather than bend. Bradford pears split at the fork right around year fifteen. Knowing which tree in your yard is the one to worry about is most of the job.
Neighborhoods and areas we cover
We work throughout Memphis including Overton Park, Central Gardens, East Memphis, Midtown, Downtown, Raleigh, Whitehaven, Hickory Hill, Berclair, Frayser — and every street in between. ZIP codes: 38103, 38104, 38111, 38112, 38117, 38118, 38119, 38122, 38127, 38128, 38134.
Emergency response in Memphis
Memphis is roughly 20 minutes from our shop. When a storm comes through, structure strikes and blocked driveways get dispatched first, then hazard trees, then general cleanup. We answer the phone at night — that is the entire point of a storm line.

A family business out of Millington — now working most of the country
The crew that pulls into a driveway in Memphis is not a franchise crew and not a call-center dispatch. Aaron Arnold started this company in 2001 with a truck and a saw, and it grew the only way a tree company honestly can: one job at a time, one neighbor telling another.
That business now runs cranes and bucket fleets across the Mid-South, works federal and military installations, and puts storm crews on the road toward hurricanes and tornado outbreaks across the country. What has not changed is who answers the phone and what the yard looks like when we leave.
- Local people. Millington-based crews who know Shelby County roads, soil and trees.
- Founder-owned. No private equity, no franchise agreement, no regional VP.
- National capability. The equipment and logistics of a company many times our age.
- The same standard on every job — a $400 stump grind and a multi-crew deployment.
