Tree Removal
in Lincoln, MA
Professional tree removal for hazardous, dead, storm-damaged, and unwanted trees. Serving Lincoln and the Merrimack Valley.
What We Do
We remove trees. That's the short version. The longer version involves chainsaws, rigging ropes, cranes when needed, and decades of knowing exactly where a tree is going to fall before we make the first cut.
In Lincoln, we handle everything from small ornamental trees to massive 80-foot oaks pressed up against houses. Lincoln is mostly conservation land and big estate properties with mature tree canopies that need real attention. It's a quiet town, but when a 90-foot white pine comes down on a driveway out here, it's a big job in a remote spot.
Every removal starts with an honest assessment. We'll tell you if the tree actually needs to come down — sometimes pruning is enough. But when it's time, we get it done safely, cleanly, and without drama.
We serve all Lincoln neighborhoods including Lincoln Center, South Lincoln, Lincoln Station and surrounding areas.

Our Work in
Lincoln
Lincoln jobs tend to be bigger and more involved. Last month we spent two days on a property off Lincoln Road removing three hazard pines that were leaning over the house — each one over 80 feet, with a 500-foot carry to the chipper because the driveway was too narrow for the truck. Week before that, we did a full assessment of 30+ trees on an estate property near the Codman Estate for a new homeowner who wanted to know what needed attention. We pruned twelve, flagged four for removal, and left the rest alone. That's the kind of thoughtful work Lincoln homeowners expect.
What It
Costs
$300 - $3,000+ — typical range for tree removal in Lincoln.
Here's the honest answer: it depends. A small tree in an open yard is a few hundred bucks. A 70-foot oak wedged between your house and your neighbor's garage with power lines overhead? That's a bigger number.
What affects the cost? Size is the biggest factor. Then access — can we get our equipment close, or are we carrying everything through a side yard? Species matters too. Hardwoods are heavier and take longer to cut. Location near structures or power lines adds complexity.
We don't do bait-and-switch pricing. The number we give you at the estimate is the number on the invoice. No surprises, no add-ons. If something changes during the job, we talk to you first.

Lincoln
Permits
Lincoln requires Tree Warden approval for public shade tree removal under MGL Chapter 87. Given that over 60% of the town is conservation land, most properties have some portion within the 100-foot wetland buffer zone, requiring Conservation Commission review. The Lincoln Conservation Commission is thorough and expects detailed filings for any tree work near resource areas. Contact the Lincoln Town Offices for specifics.
Permit rules change. Confirm with your municipality. We can help — call (978) 375-2272.

FAQ
How do you handle access on Lincoln's long driveways and rural properties?
Carefully. Some Lincoln properties have driveways that are a quarter mile long and too narrow for our largest equipment. We assess access before every job and bring the right setup — sometimes that's a compact track loader instead of a full-size truck, sometimes it's a crane staged on the road with a long boom reach. We've carried wood by hand, chipped at the road, and used rigging systems to lower pieces in tight spots. Lincoln properties take longer, but we plan for that.
Can you work on trees near Flint's Pond?
Yes, with Conservation Commission approval. Flint's Pond and its surrounding wetlands are protected under MGL Chapter 131, Section 40. The 100-foot buffer zone applies, and Lincoln's commission will want to see a detailed tree assessment, a plan for erosion control, and often a replanting commitment. We've done multiple removals in the Flint's Pond area and know the process well. Hazardous trees generally get approved, but expect conditions attached to the approval.
How much does tree removal cost in Lincoln?
Lincoln jobs tend to cost more than average because of the access challenges and conservation requirements. A straightforward large tree removal with good access runs $1,200 to $3,000. Properties with long driveways, limited equipment access, or conservation permitting requirements add to the cost — both in labor time and permitting fees. We quote everything upfront, including any expected permitting costs, so there are no surprises.
How much does tree removal cost?
Small trees (under 30 feet) typically run $300-$500. Medium trees (30-60 feet) are $500-$1,000. Large trees (60+ feet) start at $1,000 and can go up to $3,000+ depending on access, species, and proximity to structures. We give free estimates — no surprises.
