Tree Removal in Pinellas County and the Tampa Bay Area

Why Homeowners Call Us for Tree Removal

Our founder, Apollo O’Neil, removed his first tree right here in Clearwater, and ever since then we’ve been safely removing declining, hazardous, and problem trees across Pinellas County and the Tampa Bay area. 

At O’Neil’s Tree Service we always try to preserve trees when it’s the right thing to do, but when a tree is dead, failing, creating a hazard, or needs to be removed for construction, we make sure the job is done safely, cleanly and with as little impact on your property as possible.  Tree removals are some of the most dangerous jobs in arboriculture, which is why our arborists and crew are highly trained and follow the most current climbing, rigging and safety standards.  Whether a tree is near a home, over a pool, above a roof, or too dangerous to climb, we use cranes, grapple trucks and turf friendly equipment to remove it safely and efficiently

How We Remove Trees Safely

O’Neil’s uses the most advanced equipment, the most recent techniques and methods utilized in the tree care industry to remove trees. 

This includes: certified tree climbers, cranes, tight access back yard self-propelled lifts, bucket trucks, grapple trucks, turf friendly wheel loaders and large diesel stump grinders. 

Our foreman, tree climbers, bucket truck operators, crane operators are constantly working to improve their skills and education through weekly safety and educational meetings which take place at our shop in Palm Harbor every Friday.  No one in the Tampa area spends the time and effort to educate and train their tree care crews to the degree we do.  Just take a look at all of the certified arborist we have on staff.  No private company in the state Florida has as many ISA a Certified arborist as we do.
