Emergency and Hazard Tree Removal in Olympia, WA

Olympia's wet winters and occasional windstorms can turn a compromised tree into an urgent safety problem overnight. Double D Tree Service, LLC responds to emergency calls and can assess hazard trees before they cause property damage or personal injury. Signs that a tree may need prompt attention include a hollow or cracked trunk, sudden lean after heavy rain, large dead branches hanging over structures, or roots lifting from the ground. Trees growing toward power lines along corridors like Pacific Avenue or Yelm Highway SE may also require professional evaluation.

Do You Need a Permit to Remove a Tree in Olympia, WA?

A permit may be required. The City of Olympia requires property owners to maintain a minimum tree density on their lots, and removing a tree that drops your property below that threshold typically triggers a Tree Removal Permit application through the city's online portal. However, trees officially assessed as hazards may qualify for an exemption under Olympia Municipal Code 16.60. Double D Tree Service, LLC can help guide you through the permit process so your project stays on the right side of local rules before any work begins.

How the Tree Removal Process Works

Knowing what to expect makes the job easier. Here is how Double D typically handles a removal:

1. On-site assessment by owner Dave Drewry, who reviews access, tree condition, and proximity to structures or power lines.

2. Transparent written estimate provided at no charge before any work is scheduled.

3. Sectional removal using aerial bucket trucks up to 105 feet tall for safe, controlled cutting around homes and utilities.

4. Debris chipping and load-out with a 20-yard capacity chip truck, leaving your property clean.

5. Optional stump grinding to finish the job; see the stump grinding page for details.

Trees Near Structures and Power Lines

Working close to a house, garage, or utility line requires experience and proper equipment. Double D Tree Service, LLC has operated in Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater, and Yelm since 1993, handling tight removals in suburban lots, commercial properties, and wooded acreage throughout Thurston County. The crew's aerial equipment and controlled-cut technique reduce the risk of property damage during removal.

Debris and Wood Chip Disposal

After a removal, debris does not have to become your problem. Cut sections are chipped on site and hauled away with the chip truck. Wood chips are also available for free self-haul, seven days a week during daylight hours, making it easy for gardeners and landscapers to put the material to use.
