Our priorities

  1. Safety

Safety is, and always will be, our first priority at True North, period. Trees are inherently risky, and we don’t take our tasks lightly. This safety extends to our customer’s property - we are fully insured but we’ve never had to use it, and we intend to never have to. We don’t take unnecessary risks, and we are careful to mitigate problems before they arise.

2. Competence

True North is a full-service tree-needs company, and we pride ourselves on our ability to tackle any tree-related job, big or small. Our team has the training and problem-solving skills to identify barriers and map a solution and we have the equipment and tools to enable us to safely overcome any obstacle that’s put in front of us.

3. Sustainability

While we operate in the business of tree-removals, we work to do so respectfully and in a way that creates a better & greener future. We recycle and reuse every part of the tree that is removed. For smaller branches and logs we utilize our on-site chipper to recycle them into mulch/wood-chips to help the growth of other plants. Larger logs and branches that are unable to be chipped can be used for firewood, chop blocks, or ornamental displays. Both the woodchips and logs are available to our customers after the project, or we can remove them. Interested in getting some wood-chips or logs? Contact us!

Sometimes the best solution to a failed and hung tree is to suspend it using ropes and lower it to the ground for processing. #springcleanup #treework #treeservice #arborist #customerservice #arboristlife #stormdamage #treeremoval #treecare #trueno
