How To Remove A Small Tree From Your Yard

12/5/2018

Do you need to remove a small tree from your yard? Trees add beauty to a yard, but there are times when you’ll need to make the hard choice to cut down a tree. Let’s look at what the tree removal gurus have to say about taking down a small tree.

Take the time to stay safe
Taking down a tree is one of the most dangerous tasks you can take on in your yard. Thousands of people go to the hospital, or worse, each year due to (1) falling tree limbs, (2) ladder falls, and (3) electrocution from an overhead electrical line. The surest way to safely remove a tree is to take the time to carefully make a plan before you head out to the yard with a chainsaw.

Remember the Rule of Fives
Cutting down a tree of any size takes preparation. Make sure that you stay safe while you’re removing a tree by focusing on the Rule of Fives. According to the University of Connecticut’s Stormwise website, loggers and other tree professionals live by these five tree removal tips.


  • Personal protection
  • Chainsaw/ax safety check
  • Surroundings check
  • Felling plan
  • Stump plan

Check out The Family Handyman’s easy to follow step-by-step guide to safely cutting down a tree.

Don’t forget the tree stump and roots
Don’t fall into a novice gardener's idea that your work is complete once you’ve taken down a tree. Some of the most challenging work is just beginning as you now need to take care of the remaining part of the tree, the tree stump, and root system.

Left alone, the remaining parts of the tree will almost inevitably cause problems in your yard. Some potential problems include (1) root damage to sidewalks and sewer pipes, (2) insect infestation, (3) landscaping challenges and, (4) tree regrowth.
