Sioux Falls sits in a wide valley of the Big Sioux River, shaded by mature green ash, American elm, silver maple and linden trees that line the boulevards of Cathedral, McKennan Park and the near-side neighborhoods. Our winters are long and hard, our summers humid and green, and our storms are severe, which means your trees face real stress and real risk.

Homeowners and property managers in Sioux Falls (57104) call Sioux Falls Tree Service when ash trees start to decline, when ice and wet snow bend branches over roofs and power lines, when storm damage leaves hazardous limbs hanging over homes, and when they need a crew that knows how to work safely on tight lots in historic neighborhoods and newer subdivisions alike.

Tree Service in Sioux Falls (57104)

Sioux Falls is built on gently rolling glacial till with heavy clay soil in the Big Sioux River valley. The city's older boulevards, especially around the Cathedral Historic District and along McKennan Park, are lined with shade trees planted over a century ago: green ash, American elm, silver maple, honeylocust, linden and bur oak. Yards and acreages hold Black Hills spruce, Colorado blue spruce, ponderosa pine, cottonwoods, willows and boxelders, with eastern red cedar and cottonwood shelterbelts on rural properties at the edges. Thousands of ash trees across the city are dying or dead from emerald ash borer, Dutch elm disease weakens mature elms, silver maple limbs are naturally brittle, and heavy wet snow and ice storms snap branches and bend tops toward rooflines and power lines every winter. Summer brings severe thunderstorms, derecho winds and occasional tornado damage that keeps emergency crews working overtime.

Our team has been serving Sioux Falls and the surrounding areas for years, removing hazardous trees, trimming storm-damaged limbs, grinding stumps, and clearing land. We know the neighborhoods, the soil, the tree species, and the weather that shapes tree failure in this part of South Dakota.

How a Job Works in Sioux Falls

You call us at (605) 633-7906 or request a free estimate online. We schedule an on-site visit to assess the tree, the terrain, access to your lot, proximity to structures, power lines, and neighbors. We explain what we recommend, why, and what it will cost. For removals and major work, we provide a written estimate with no obligation.

On work day, our crew arrives with proper equipment, sets up a work zone, and removes the tree safely and efficiently. In tight Cathedral-area yards or dense neighborhoods, we use bucket trucks, rigging and careful limb-by-limb dismantling to protect your home, fence and landscaping. We coordinate with power companies if lines are close. We handle stump grinding on site if you want it, or we can leave the stump for later. We haul away all debris and brush, chip branches if you want mulch, and leave your property clean and safe.

We walk through the finished job with you, answer questions, and make sure you are satisfied.

Tree removal in Sioux Falls starts at a free estimate. Cost depends on tree size and species, how close it is to your home or power lines, how easy access is, and whether you need stump grinding. A typical residential removal of a medium ash or elm runs $1,500 to $3,500 depending on height and complexity. Large trees, trees over structures, or trees in tight lots cost more. Tree trimming and pruning starts at $250 and scales with the number of trees and amount of crown work. Stump grinding starts at $150 per stump. Emergency tree removal after storm damage is handled urgently, and we charge a free estimate rate to get you a price fast. Call us at (605) 633-7906 for a free on-site estimate, or describe your situation and we will give you a ballpark over the phone.

Why are so many ash trees dying in Sioux Falls?
Emerald ash borer arrived in Sioux Falls and has killed or is killing thousands of green ash trees across the city and region. Infested ash trees decline rapidly, their limbs die back, and they become hazardous. If your ash tree is showing sparse foliage, dead branches in the crown, or D-shaped exit holes in the bark, it is likely infested. We recommend removal before the tree becomes a safety risk. Call us to assess your ash trees.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property in Sioux Falls?
Tree removal permits are required in many Sioux Falls neighborhoods and subdivisions, especially for trees above a certain diameter or for heritage species like oak. HOAs often require approval for visible removals. Before you cut, check with your HOA if you have one, and contact the City of Sioux Falls website at https://www.siouxfalls.gov/ for local ordinances and permit requirements. We can help coordinate permits and inspections for your project.
What should I do if a branch from my neighbor's tree is hanging over my roof or fence?
You have the right to trim branches that cross your property line, but you must do it carefully and not damage the tree or trespass. We recommend talking to your neighbor first. If you cannot agree, hire a professional like us to trim the overhanging limbs safely. If the limb is dead or hazardous, document it with photos and contact your neighbor in writing. If your neighbor refuses to act and the limb threatens your home, contact your city or HOA for guidance.
What is your response time for emergency tree removal after a storm in Sioux Falls?
We respond to emergency calls as soon as possible, often within hours of a major storm. If a tree has fallen on your home, a vehicle, or power lines, or if a large limb is hanging over your roof or threatening to fall, call us immediately at (605) 633-7906. We will prioritize your job, assess the hazard, and give you an estimate for emergency removal or limb takedown. Storm season in Sioux Falls runs spring through early fall, and we staff up to handle demand.
How much does it cost to have a large tree removed in Sioux Falls?
A large mature tree (60+ feet tall, 3+ feet diameter) typically costs $3,000 to $6,000 or more to remove safely, depending on the species, proximity to structures and power lines, and how tight the lot is. Historic neighborhoods like Cathedral with narrow lots and close homes cost more than open suburban lots. Add $150 to $300 for stump grinding. We provide free estimates so you know the exact cost before we start. Call (605) 633-7906.
Are you fully insured to do tree work in Sioux Falls?
Yes. We follow industry safety standards for all work. When you hire us, you are protected.
When is the best time to trim trees in Sioux Falls?
Late winter and early spring, after the worst cold snaps but before new growth, is ideal for most pruning in Sioux Falls. Dormant pruning reduces stress on the tree and heals faster. Summer trimming is fine for routine maintenance and storm cleanup. Avoid heavy pruning in fall, which can weaken trees before winter. For ash trees being removed, any time works. Call us to schedule a trimming consultation and we will recommend the best timing for your trees.
