MN Tree Services Quick Response to Emergencies

This June in the Twin Cities there was a record number of power outages. In fact, about half a million! Storms had descended upon Minnesota, ripping up trees and destroying property, and as a result, workers at Xcel Energy are calling this the largest electrical outage in Minnesota. Over 1,000 lineman were working to restore power.

Tree-Mendous Tree Care responded quickly to several emergencies throughout the Twin Cities Metro Area.  A crane had to be used to clean up this disaster. The size of these jobs varied, as did the equipment needed to complete the jobs safely. For example, some jobs required the use of a 28-ton crane while others needed a 120-ton crane. In total 27 jobs required the use of cranes. There was a mass destruction of trees, and tree limbs. This emergency response took a full two weeks of our crews working 15 hours a day.

Unbelievable damage was done during this storm. Trees literally ripped and tore apart homes. When doing these jobs we had to first make the residents safe by removing limbs off houses, and then return later to finish the job, due to the incredible number of calls we received. This is a great example of how we have dedicated ourselves to servicing the people of the Twin Cities area as well as greater Minnesota.
