Fallen Tree Removal in Boise & Nearby

Boise > Yard Waste > Fallen Tree Removal

Boise wind storms and heavy snow loads topple trees every season, leaving trunks and branches scattered across North End alleys, West Boise driveways, and Garden City backyards. Junk Holler’s local crew removes fallen trees the same day—cutting oversized trunks to legal haul-away lengths, loading all debris, and recycling every log we can. We bring chain saws, safety gear, and 16-cubic-yard dump trucks so you do zero heavy lifting.

Our eco-friendly approach keeps usable chips and limbs in Boise’s curbside compost stream and diverts untreated wood to the Ada County Landfill diversion area (open Mon–Sat 7 am–6 pm). Need help today? Book a two-hour arrival window or text us a photo for a fast quote.

Why Remove a Fallen Tree Quickly

  • Safety hazards: Hidden tension in fallen trunks can snap saw blades or shift unexpectedly. Live electrical lines elevate the risk—Idaho Power warns that trees contacting lines cause outages and serious hazards (learn more).
  • Storm cleanup fines: Boise City Code requires homeowners to clear public rights-of-way after storms.
  • Pest prevention: Downed wood attracts carpenter ants and beetles within weeks.
  • Fire-wise landscaping: Idaho Firewise recommends keeping large trunks and brush at least 30 ft from structures (see defensible-space tips).

Our Four-Step Fallen Tree Removal Process

  1. Assessment & quote: We inspect trunk size, access, and any power-line clearance needed, then give an upfront, all-inclusive price.
  2. Sectioning: Oversized logs are cut to 6–8 ft lengths so they fit safely in the truck bed.
  3. Loading & sweep-up: Our crew hand-loads or uses a winch for heavier sections, then rakes leftover needles and sawdust.
  4. Eco-disposal: Clean fir and pine go to Boise’s compost facility; mixed loads divert to Ada County Landfill’s clean-wood pile.

 

Typical cost: Boise homeowners paid $200 – $750 in 2025 for single-tree haul-aways, depending on trunk diameter and access (Angi cost guide). Emergency same-day service or crane lifts may run higher.
