As we are all well aware, the past few years have been notable with regards to extreme weather. Cincinnati has had a number of tornado scares in the past few years, and other parts of the United States are experiencing their own horrific weather patterns.
Along with other tree service companies across the country, we are proud to recognize the ways in which tree service professionals are pitching in to help their neighbors in tough weather and disaster conditions.
During extreme weather events, such as tornadoes, hurricanes, wildfires, and intense storms (in summer or winter) large numbers of trees can be damaged or fall, damaging structures, blocking roadways, injuring people, and preventing emergency responders from reaching people who need their help. Sometimes, the need for tree assistance can overwhelm the tree services in the immediate area, and necessitate extra help from out-of-state tree service companies.
Hurricanes
For the people in Texas and Louisiana enduring the high winds and destructive path of Hurricane Laura, help came from many states away. SB Tree Service, a company based in Florida (Volusia and Brevard Counties, specifically, including Daytona Beach), sprang into action. SB’s entire team of tree professionals jumped into their trucks and drove to Lake Charles, Louisiana, to help with tree removal and other disaster recovery tasks.
More than a half-million residents of the Texas Gulf Coast evacuated their homes, but when the storm hit land, its center hit the city of Lake Charles. SB Tree Service has helped with other hurricanes in the past, including Hurricane Florence (in North Carolina) and Hurricane Michael (in Panama City, Florida).
Wildfires
In California, the past few fire seasons have been brutal. In 2020, the worst of recent years, more than four million acres burned in the Golden State alone.
For the residents of Fresno, who were surrounded by intense fires in early September of 2020, Tree Service Fresno offered discounts for brush clearing, lot clean-ups, and hillside clean-ups. A few hours north, in Stockton, California, Stockton Tree Service Experts offered similar discounts to homeowners in their area.
Across the country, tree service companies join first responders in helping to clean up after all kinds of emergency conditions. We have a long tradition of banding together to help people under the worst of circumstances. And, in more local situations, we can come to the rescue 24/7 if you have a tree service emergency. We’re here to help, whenever you might need a tree cleared from your property or a large limb removed from your roof. Just give us a call, anytime.
