Local tree service

 

Able Tree Service, a Fords, NJ based Tree trimming and removal service (http://www.abletreeco.com/) has the manpower, talent and equipment to handle all your tree care or removal needs. 

When Hurricane Irene (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Irene) came ashore near Little Egg Harbor, NJ, on August 28,  2011 it was downgraded to a tropical storm; but remained a devastating monster nonetheless!

While the song “Goodnight Irene” was a poplar tune in the 1930’s, most in the Township of Woodbridge will recall Irene’s night in our township with anything but fond memories.  Few residents were unscaved  by Irene’s winds and rains.  Major flooding occurred in several parts of the township.  Power outages were extensive and lasted for several days. Trees, by the hundreds were broken or downed, thus compounding the damages to property and infrastructure.

A friend’s home in Fords, along with many others in the area, suffered basement flooding, owing to no electricity for the sump pumps.  But the worst damage came from the loss of several Poplar, Pine and one very large Oak tree on my friend’s property.  Fortunately, the fall of the largest trees were broken by other trees, thus narrowly avoiding serious damage to homes and  sheds.

Despite the huge demand for the services of tree service companies, Able Tree Service was able to remove all of the broken and fallen trees on the properties (includes the neighbor’s), including three very large Oaks that were still posing a danger to structures on the properties , within a few days of Irene’s devastating visit. 

Within the past week, several trees were topped, pruned or downed on the property for safety and maintenance reasons by the owner, save on 50Ft.+ pine, which was left for Able Tree Service to remove, along with all the debris from the owner’s cuttings and clean-up.

Able was there the day after they were called and, like the service they provided after Irene, they got the tree down and the rest of a truckload of material off the property in a few hours. Once again, they did a professional job at a fair price.

So, if someone needs the services of a tree service company, try Able Tree Service, they really are ready and able to do the right job!
