Independence, MO

Tree work in Independence, done right.

Independence is one of the oldest cities in the metro, and it shows in the trees. Around the historic Square and the streets near the Truman Home, many yards are shaded by silver maples, elms and oaks that have had decades to grow, often right up over the roof and the service lines. Farther east, toward Little Blue Parkway, the subdivisions are newer and the trees younger.

From our base in Lee's Summit, Independence is about 20 to 25 minutes north on M-291 or I-470, close enough for estimates, recurring trims and storm calls.

Every job is led by Josh, the owner. My Tree Guys, LLC is fully licensed and insured, and we clean up and haul everything away before we leave.

What we see in Independence yards

  • Mature silver maples and elms with heavy limbs over houses, garages and streets.
  • Ash trees declining or dead from emerald ash borer, which should come down before they get brittle.
  • Older trees that have never had a proper trim, with deadwood high in the crown.

Seeing one of these in your yard? Call or text (816) 491-5867 and we’ll come take a look.
