What qualifies as an emergency tree removal?

Any situation where a tree or large limb poses an immediate risk to people, property, or access—such as a tree that has fallen on a home, blocked a driveway, is leaning dangerously after a storm, or is tangled in power lines—requires emergency removal.

How quickly can Eddy’s respond to an emergency call?

Our crew is on standby 24/7. In most cases, we can arrive within hours—often faster—depending on location and current call volume.

Do you work with insurance companies?

Yes. We provide detailed damage assessments, photos, and written reports to help streamline your insurance claims for storm, wind, or impact damage.

Will you remove trees at night or during severe weather?

Yes. We respond to emergencies day or night, even during storms, provided it’s safe for our crew to operate. If conditions are unsafe, we’ll stabilize the area and return as soon as it’s secure to proceed.

What areas do you serve for emergency tree removal?

We cover Redding, Anderson, Palo Cedro, and surrounding Shasta County communities.

How do I know if a damaged tree needs to be removed immediately?

If the tree is leaning heavily, has split or cracked trunks, is uprooted, or is hanging over a structure, vehicle, or walkway, it’s safest to treat it as an emergency.

Is there an extra cost for after-hours or weekend emergency service?

Pricing depends on the complexity and risk of the removal, not the time of day. We’ll always provide an estimate before starting work.
