Where We Work
Valley Stream is home base, and the ring around it is a fifteen-minute drive end to end. What changes town to town is not the trees - it is the paperwork. Half these places are incorporated villages with their own tree codes and half are hamlets under the Town of Hempstead, and the rules are genuinely different.
Tree Service in Lynbrook
Incorporated village with its own permit rules and no fee for curb-strip removals - but a four-month replacement requirement. 1920s lots, century-old street trees.
Lynbrook details →Tree Service in Hewlett
Five different jurisdictions in three square miles. Hewlett Harbor regulates any tree over 22 inches around - dead ones included. We sort out which applies to your address.
Hewlett details →Tree Service in Cedarhurst
Incorporated 1910, licenses tree servicers, and dense enough that most removals need a crane in the street. Neighboring Woodmere and Inwood follow different rules entirely.
Cedarhurst details →Tree Service in Franklin Square
Unincorporated, Town of Hempstead rules, 40x100 lots. A wind town rather than a flood town - Isaias took canopy down all over it in 2020.
Franklin Square details →Tree Service in Elmont
On the Queens line, post-war Capes, and street trees grown straight into the PSEG lines. Town of Hempstead permit path for the curb strip.
Elmont details →Valley Stream and the hamlets
The Village of Valley Stream has its own Chapter 90 tree law - a permit is required to remove a tree on private property, not just at the curb. North and South Valley Stream are unincorporated and fall under the Town instead. That is covered on the tree removal page.

A note worth making plainly: most companies that rank for these towns are based in Suffolk County, twenty-five to forty-five miles east, running one templated page per town. A few are lead-gen sites with out-of-state phone numbers. Being three miles away is not a marketing claim here, it is the reason we can look at a hanging limb the same day.
