Brush and Debris

Brush And Debris; Where Does It All Go?

We are often asked: “What do you do with the debris from all the trimming and the tree removals? Do you dump it in the landfills?” The answer is: “No, we do not dump debris into landfills. We recycle 100% of the wood debris generated from our care of trees.” If you want mulch, all you have to do is ask. We have mulch at our shop in Wylie that you can come get anytime (call our office for details). We can also deliver to areas near our shop for a very reasonable price. The goal is for the debris to be put to good use. That has been Mr. Houser’s position on the issue since the beginning (1981), and we have no plans to change. Many companies that do tree work leave debris piled in parkways along the street for the city to pick up. This can be very dangerous for children in the area that see it as an opportunity to play, and also fills up our landfills with precious mulch and logs that can easily be used to enhance our environment. We asked Mr. Houser recently about this question, and he said, “We have a responsibility to improve our clients’ neighborhoods rather than create a huge mess for taxpayers to clean up. They are counting on us to do the right thing, and that is exactly what we do.” As a result, we haul away the debris from all of our job sites.

Note: We do leave the shavings from stump grindings on site, primarily to fill the holes and to avoid trip hazards.
