“Had a experienced arborist come out to assess a couple of our older trees that were looking rough. He spent time explaining what he was seeing, took photos, and gave us a detailed report with recommendations. Really appreciated the professional insight before making any decisions.”
Arborist Consultation
“Our front hedge had gotten completely out of control, probably hadn't been touched in years. The crew showed up with a three-person team and had it shaped up and looking manicured in about three hours. They cleaned up every branch and leaf, left the yard spotless.”
Hedge Trimming & Shrub Care
“We needed our rural driveway cleared out, lots of overgrown trees and brush blocking the view. They cleared the whole thing safely and efficiently. Made a huge difference in how the property looks and feels.”
Land Clearing
“After we had a tree removed last year, we were stuck with this ugly stump in the middle of the yard. Lansing Tree Service ground it down completely, the area is now level and ready for grass seed. Couldn't be happier with how clean they left everything.”
Stump Grinding
“Had a dead oak in our backyard that was too risky to keep around. The team took it down with precision, roped it down section by section so nothing got damaged. Whole process was done in one afternoon and they hauled everything away. Professional work.”
Tree Removal
“Our big maple was getting too heavy on one side and branches were hanging over the roof. They pruned it back carefully, balanced it out nicely, and it looks healthier already. The crew was respectful of the property and didn't leave a mess.”
Tree Trimming & Pruning
“Called them to prune back some younger trees on the property that were getting leggy. They shaped them up real nice, now they look fuller and more established. Quick job, good price, and they knew exactly what they were doing.”
Tree Trimming & Pruning
“Our ancient oak was leaning and the roots were buckling the patio, had to come down. They handled a massive tree removal without any damage to the house or fence. Incredible skill and safety awareness. Would absolutely call them again.”

For homeowners searching for tree service near me in Lansing, Michigan, Lansing Tree Service is the trusted choice for professional, fully insured work on every job. We serve Lansing and surrounding communities including East Lansing, Okemos, Haslett, Holt, Delta Township, DeWitt and Williamston, bringing decades of experience to the unique landscape and tree challenges of mid-Michigan. Whether you own a historic Victorian in Old Town, a Craftsman bungalow on the Eastside, or a modern subdivision home in a wooded neighborhood, our team understands the trees and soil conditions that define this region.
The Grand River valley and surrounding glacial plains support a diverse canopy of mature trees, from towering silver maples and oaks to white pines and Norway spruce, but that same landscape brings storm damage, disease pressure and overgrowth that demand expert care. Call us at (517) 888-9633 or request a free estimate to discuss your tree needs today.
Tree removal in Lansing often becomes urgent when winter ice storms, heavy wet snow or summer thunderstorms bring limbs crashing onto roofs, vehicles or power lines. Dead ash trees left behind by emerald ash borer infestation pose a particular hazard across our service area, their brittle wood prone to sudden failure without warning. Large trees growing close to homes, garages or driveways demand professional removal to prevent catastrophic damage, and a single miscalculation can result in thousands of dollars in structural repair costs.
Fallen trees on your property or vehicle require immediate action, and hazardous hanging limbs threatening your roof or a neighbor's structure cannot wait for a convenient appointment. Lansing Tree Service provides emergency tree service 24/7 to respond to storm damage and dangerous situations. When a tree has fallen across your home, a limb is hanging over your power line, or you have a dead or leaning tree that poses an imminent risk, call us right away at (517) 888-9633. Our crews are equipped to handle large tree removal safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption to your property.
We manage the complexity of removal work in established neighborhoods where trees are often large, mature and situated near structures, fences and utility lines. Our experienced arborists assess each removal carefully to plan the safest approach, whether that means rigging large sections down by crane or dismantling the tree piece by piece. Every removal is fully insured, protecting you and your home from liability.
The cost of tree removal and other tree services in Lansing varies based on several factors: the size and species of the tree, how easily our crew can access it, its proximity to your home or other structures, and the scope of work required. A large silver maple hanging over your roof will cost more to remove safely than a smaller ornamental tree in an open yard. Storm damage, disease, and the need for emergency response also affect pricing. Visit our pricing page to learn more about how we structure estimates for different types of work, or contact us for a detailed quote on your specific project.
Beyond removal, we offer a full range of tree care services to keep your Lansing property healthy and attractive. Stump grinding eliminates the unsightly remnant left behind after a tree is felled, restoring your yard to usable space. Tree trimming and pruning removes dead wood, improves structure and reduces disease risk on trees like Norway maples and oaks. We also provide hedge trimming and shrub care, land clearing for new construction or lot development, and arborist consultation for homeowners who want expert guidance on tree health and preservation.
Tree removal permits are required in many Lansing area municipalities for trees above a certain size or diameter, and some neighborhoods have heritage tree ordinances that protect mature oaks and other significant species. If your property is in an HOA community, visible tree removal may also require approval from your homeowners association. Property line issues can arise when a neighbor's branches overhang your roof or yard, and removing those limbs involves knowing your legal rights. Lansing Tree Service can advise you on the permit process and help navigate local requirements as part of your project planning. Contact us for a free estimate and we will discuss any permits or approvals your removal or work may need.
