Tewksbury is rural Hunterdon — hills, horse farms, and villages with genuinely old trees in them. Large properties usually give us room to work the crane, which is far safer than climbing a big declining tree. Most of what we do out here is field edges, paddock lines and the trees around old farmhouses.
Tewksbury’s rolling Highlands terrain holds mature stands of red oak, sugar maple, hickory, and ash across horse farms, historic estates, and large wooded lots in USDA zone 6b.
Wayne’s Tree Service handles crane-assisted removal of tall hardwoods on tight estate lots, sectional dismantling near homes and power lines, canopy reduction for storm preparedness, stump grinding below grade, and preventive pruning — backed by 24/7 emergency response when nor’easters and ice storms hit the township’s exposed ridgelines.
Storm-damaged trees are the ones that catch people out. A cracked union or a torn limb looks survivable from the ground, but the wound lets decay in and the tree fails in the next hard wind. We look at the union, not just the canopy.
Our tree removal service
A limb hanging over the sidewalk or the neighbor's drive is a liability question as much as a tree question. If it is dead and you knew, the answer after it falls is not a comfortable one.
How we prune
The grindings do not have to leave. Mixed with soil they backfill the hole and settle in over a season, or we haul the lot away and leave you clean ground — whichever suits what you are doing next.
How stump grinding works
Where you plant matters as much as what. Too close to a foundation, a walk or a septic field and you are choosing between the tree and the structure later on. We site it so that choice never comes up.
More on planting
Overgrown ground does not stay overgrown quietly. Vines pull down good trees, brush hides the failing ones, and by the time you can see the problem you are dealing with several at once.
Our land clearing service
Making a site safe and clearing it fully are two different jobs. At two in the morning the first is what matters, and we would rather stabilize it properly and come back in daylight than rush the rest.
How emergency call-outs workTewksbury regulates tree removal under Chapter 16.20 of the Township Code (Tree Clearing and Removal), adopted in Ordinance 08-2014. The ordinance defines a regulated “tree” as any deciduous tree with a trunk diameter greater than 4 inches measured 4½ feet above the ground, or any coniferous tree with a trunk greater than 4 inches in diameter or taller than 6 feet.
A permit is required to remove a regulated tree unless the tree or property is exempt. The most common exemptions are:
These guys are the package deal. Polite professional, quick, responsive and well priced. They are safe and respectful. Used them many times over the years for routine work and emergencies. Always came through.
This is the third time we have used Wayne’s. They are very professional. Great communication, on time, great price.
Wayne’s tree service did a phenomenal job and the price was very reasonable. I would tell anyone who needs tree service that this is the business that you should use. Very professional, and very reasonable.
Dylan and his entire crew are outstanding. I needed a large dead pine tree taken down ASAP because it was next to my house and overhead wires. Dylan responded immediately and quoted me a very reasonable price.
Excellent experience working with Dylan and the team. Dylan was very knowledgeable and made everything simple and stress-free. Great service all around, and I’ll be using them again.
We needed to remove a tree near the road and power lines. Dylan gave us a very reasonable quote and was extremely accommodating with scheduling to avoid working when the lawn was wet.
