When the tree is too big, too tall, or too close — this is the call
Some trees are beyond what a chainsaw and a climber should be asked to handle: a massive oak leaning over the house, a dead pine wedged behind the garage, a giant that has to come out of a backyard with no room to drop anything. These are the jobs we’re built for.
Our Magni telescopic handler and crane let us lift heavy tree sections straight up and over your property and set them down exactly where we want them. Nothing free-falls. Nothing bounces off your roof. It’s the difference between a controlled, predictable removal and a white-knuckle one — and it’s why other crews call us, and why homeowners with the really big trees do too.
It’s not just power, it’s precision: the Magni reaches into tight spots a truck-mounted crane never could, so “there’s no way to get a machine back there” often turns out to be wrong. Every lift is planned and rigged before a cut is made, by a crew that does this for a living.

How it works
- 1
Engineer the lift
We assess the tree's weight, balance, and reach, then plan each pick so loads come out in control.
- 2
Set up safely
The crane or Magni is positioned and stabilized; the crew rigs each section before it's cut.
- 3
Lift it out
Heavy sections are lifted straight up and over your property and set down in the work zone — no impact on what's below.
- 4
Clean and finish
We process the wood, clear the debris, and can grind the stump if you want the spot gone.
Crane & Large-Tree Removal — Questions & Answers
Why use a crane to remove a tree?
For big, heavy, or awkwardly placed trees, a crane is the safest option by far. Instead of dropping limbs and trunk sections and hoping they land clear, we lift each piece straight up and out — so nothing slams down on your roof, pool, fence, or garden.
What makes Tree Experts different for large removals?
Most local crews don't own this equipment. We run a Magni telescopic handler and crane capability, which means we can take on the oversized, hazardous, and tight-access jobs that other companies have to turn down or subcontract.
Can you get a crane into a backyard or tight lot?
Often, yes — that's exactly what the Magni telehandler is built for. We assess access during the free quote and tell you honestly what's possible before any work starts.
Is crane removal more expensive?
Not always — and it's frequently *cheaper* than the alternative, because the right machine makes a multi-day climbing job into a controlled one-day lift with far less risk to your property. We'll quote both approaches when they apply.
