Commerce City's older residential blocks and industrial edges are home to some tough, hardy trees: Siberian elms, Russian olives, and cottonwoods that have stood for decades. When those trees need attention, whether it's storm damage, overgrowth, or hazard removal, the homeowners and property managers in 80022 call Aurora Tree Service.

We've been serving Commerce City and the surrounding Aurora area since 2015. Our licensed crews know the terrain here, the invasive species that dominate local lots, and how to work safely around power lines and structures. Whether you're dealing with a fallen tree after a spring storm or you want to clear an overgrown lot before the season changes, we show up with the right equipment and the expertise to get it done right.

Tree Service in Commerce City (80022)

Commerce City's landscape is defined by mature trees on older residential properties, industrial parcels with open lots, and HOA communities where tree work needs coordination. The Siberian elms and Russian olives that thrive here are hardy and invasive, often growing faster than homeowners expect. Cottonwoods drop heavy limbs and shed cotton that clogs gutters. Many properties sit close to power lines, rooflines, or neighboring structures, which means tree removal and pruning require precision and experience.

Our team has handled hundreds of jobs across Commerce City since 2015. We're fully licensed and insured, and we work with local permit requirements for tree removal on DBH-restricted species. We know which trees need hazard pruning before storm season, which invasive species should come out entirely, and how to clear land without damaging what matters on your property.

How a Job Works in Commerce City

It starts with a call to (719) 284-7635 or a message to us online. We schedule a free on-site assessment, usually within 24 to 48 hours. We walk your property, evaluate the tree or trees, check for power line proximity, assess access for our equipment, and discuss what you want to accomplish. We give you a clear estimate and answer your questions right there.

Once you approve, we show up on schedule with our crew and equipment. For tree removal, we fell safely, chip branches on-site when possible, and haul debris. For trimming and pruning, we shape the canopy to reduce wind load and improve health, especially important before Colorado's spring and summer storms. For stump grinding, we grind below grade so you can replant or build. We work around power lines, structures, and tight lot access without shortcuts.

When we're done, your property is clean. We rake, haul debris, and leave you with a clear lot and peace of mind. We do a final walkthrough so you know exactly what was done and why.

Tree removal in Commerce City typically ranges from a few hundred dollars for smaller trees to $1,500 to $3,500 or more for large mature elms, cottonwoods, or trees near structures. Tree trimming and pruning starts at $250 and depends on tree size, species, and how much canopy needs attention. Stump grinding starts at $150 per stump. Emergency removal after storm damage is available year-round at (719) 284-7635, and we offer free estimates for all major work. Cost factors include tree height and diameter, access for our equipment, whether the tree is diseased or hazardous, debris volume, and whether permits are required. Call us for a free, no-obligation estimate specific to your property and your trees.

What should I do if a Siberian elm or Russian olive on my Commerce City property is growing out of control?

Siberian elms and Russian olives grow fast and can quickly become invasive. If the tree is healthy and you want to keep it, we can prune it back to manage size and shape. If it's encroaching on power lines, structures, or neighboring properties, or if it's diseased, removal is often the best option. Call us for a free assessment at (719) 284-7635, and we'll recommend the best approach for your situation.

A tree fell on my garage during a storm. What do I do right now?

Call us immediately at (719) 284-7635. We offer emergency tree removal 24/7 in Commerce City and the Aurora area. If the tree is blocking access, damaging your home, or threatening power lines, we prioritize emergency jobs. We can often get to you the same day or next morning. Take photos for your insurance claim, and we'll handle the removal safely.

How much does it cost to remove a large cottonwood tree in Commerce City?

A large cottonwood (40 to 60 feet tall, mature diameter) typically costs $1,500 to $3,500 depending on access, proximity to structures or power lines, and debris volume. Smaller cottonwoods run $800 to $1,500. We provide free estimates on-site, so call (719) 284-7635 and we'll give you an exact price for your tree.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my Commerce City property?

Yes, many trees in Commerce City require a removal permit, especially if they exceed a certain diameter at breast height (DBH) or if they're protected species. Some HOA communities also require approval before removal. We handle permit coordination as part of our service. When you call for an estimate, we'll tell you whether permits are needed and what the timeline looks like.

My neighbor's tree branches are hanging over my fence and dropping debris. What are my rights?

In Colorado, you have the right to trim branches that cross your property line, but you cannot cut the tree itself without the owner's permission. We recommend talking to your neighbor first. If that doesn't work, we can help trim the overhanging limbs from your side. If the tree is hazardous or the neighbor won't cooperate, document it and contact local code enforcement. Call us at (719) 284-7635 if you need a professional assessment.

Are you fully licensed and insured for tree work at my Commerce City home?

Yes. Aurora Tree Service is fully licensed and insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We protect your property and our crew on every job. When you hire us, you're working with a professional, bonded operation that has been serving Commerce City and Aurora since 2015.

When is the best time to trim trees in Commerce City?

Late fall through winter (dormant season) is ideal for most species because trees are not actively growing, disease risk is lower, and we can see the branch structure clearly. However, we can trim year-round, and emergency pruning is available anytime. Before Colorado's spring and summer storm season, we recommend a hazard assessment to remove dead limbs or thin heavy canopies. Call us to schedule a preventive pruning in fall or early winter.
