Common Tree Species We Remove in Lincoln, NE

Lincoln’s urban forest is home to a wide variety of tree species, each presenting unique challenges during removal. Our team has experience removing all common Nebraska tree species safely and efficiently.

Cottonwood trees are among the largest and most common trees in Lincoln. Their size and brittle wood make professional removal essential, particularly when located near homes or power lines.

Siberian Elm trees are widespread throughout Lincoln neighborhoods. They grow aggressively and often develop structural weaknesses that make them prone to storm damage and splitting.

Silver Maple trees are popular in residential yards but grow quickly and develop large surface roots that can damage foundations, sidewalks, and driveways over time.

Eastern Red Cedar trees are commonly found throughout Lancaster County. While hardy, they can become a fire hazard when dry and often need removal when crowding other vegetation.

Green Ash trees have been heavily impacted by the Emerald Ash Borer, an invasive pest that has killed millions of ash trees across Nebraska. If you have a dying or dead ash tree on your property, prompt removal is important to prevent falling hazards.

Whether you have a towering Cottonwood or a diseased Ash tree, Great Plains Tree Service has the equipment and experience to handle tree removal in Lincoln safely.
