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.
