When there's a dead tree on your property, the first step is calling for professional tree removal services. However, once a commercial tree care company is scheduled to come, you'll need to prepare your property, employees, customers, and clients for the dangerous work. Removing a tree is a precise and complicated process but, by making sure your business is ready, you can help it go smoothly. 

How to Prepare Your Commercial Property for Tree Removal

1. Clear the Area

Before your tree removal begins, ensure your property is clean and empty. If you have portable furniture or potted plants, store them somewhere else for now. Also, direct vehicles as far away from the tree as possible so they won't get damaged, and put up signs asking people to stay away from the tree during a specific time frame. To be extra cautious, consider taping off the area as well.

2. Make Parking Space

It's best to let the trucks get as close to the tree as possible, so the workers have no problem accessing it. This is another reason why you must encourage people to keep their vehicles far away. Make sure there are at least three nearby parking spaces available for the tree removal company, if not more. They'll likely bring a large truck and a wood chipper, so you'll need to provide space for them.

3. Accommodate Internet Interruption

Like most modern businesses, your company probably relies to some degree on the internet, and so do nearby residents. It's not uncommon for tree removal to temporarily affect the connection, so it's best to advise your employees and neighbors ahead of time. Give them a timeframe during which connection may be lost so they can plan their days around it, and keep them informed of the process as it's happening so they'll know when the internet is available again.
