Line Clearing in Tallahassee
Trees and power lines don't mix. We clear them safely so you stay powered up.
Trees growing into power lines are a serious hazard. They cause outages, start fires, and create dangerous situations during storms. Reed Tree Service provides professional line clearing for utility companies, municipalities, and private property owners throughout the Tallahassee area.
Why Line Clearing Matters
A single branch touching a power line can knock out electricity to your neighborhood. During a storm, that same branch can pull down the line entirely — creating a lethal hazard on the ground. Regular line clearing prevents outages, reduces fire risk, and keeps your property safe. In North Florida, where storms roll through regularly, this isn't optional maintenance — it's essential.
Residential Line Clearing
If tree branches are growing into the service line running to your house, that's your responsibility to address — not the utility company's. We'll safely prune back limbs from your service drop, clear vegetation around your meter and transformer, and make sure your connection stays clear. It's fast, affordable work that prevents expensive problems down the line.
Our Approach to Safety
Working near energized power lines requires specialized training and equipment. Our crews follow strict safety protocols, maintain proper clearance distances, and use insulated tools when working near conductors. This is not DIY work — a single mistake near a power line can be fatal. Call the professionals.
Our Line Clearing Process
We don't cut corners. Here's how every line clearing job works from start to finish.

We identify all vegetation encroaching on lines and determine the safest clearance approach.
Coordination
If needed, we coordinate with the utility company for line de-energization or protective measures.
Clearing
Limbs are carefully removed using bucket trucks and specialized equipment, maintaining safe distances.
