Request Storm Cleanup, Tree Debris and Hauling Help
Document storm cleanup needs, tree branches, vegetative debris, access conditions, and desired hauling for independent-provider review after a storm or tree-service project.
Describe the request clearly
Give an available provider enough context to evaluate fit.
Tree debris hauling can mean branches, brush, logs, wood chips, or vegetative debris connected to a tree-service concern. It does not automatically mean household trash removal, municipal pickup, insurance coverage, FEMA eligibility, or a guaranteed disposal method. Clear photos, pile size, access, and scope help an independent provider decide whether the request fits.
Certified Tree Leads is an independent request and provider-connection platform. It does not inspect the tree, prescribe work, set the provider's price, or perform tree service.
Branches, brush, logs, palm fronds, or vegetative debris remain after wind damage or tree work
A provider may need to evaluate cleanup with a removal, trimming, or storm-damage request
Tree debris blocks a driveway, gate, walkway, or property access but there is no immediate utility or life-safety hazard
A homeowner needs to clarify whether hauling, chipping, disposal, stump debris, or site cleanup is part of the request
Safety first
Use emergency and utility services before the request form when necessary.
Stay away from downed power lines, damaged trees, and unstable debris. Treat electrical lines as potentially energized and contact the appropriate utility or emergency service before submitting a request if there is an active hazard.
Details to include in your request
Photograph the pile and the path from the street or driveway to it from a safe location.
Describe the debris type, approximate pile size, whether logs or heavy limbs are involved, and whether a chipper or truck may need access.
State whether there are fences, gates, soft ground, vehicles, utilities, narrow access, or community rules that affect pickup.
Explain whether the debris is connected to a current tree-service request and whether you expect chipping, hauling, disposal, or a separate written scope.
Questions for an independent provider
What debris, hauling, chipping, disposal, or cleanup is included in the written scope?
What access, equipment, staging, or surface protection will be needed?
Does the provider need to inspect the tree source, logs, utility conditions, or other hazards before accepting the request?
Who confirms local disposal rules, municipal collection, insurance documentation, and any separate restoration work?

Clear expectations before a possible provider handoff.
Does Certified Tree Leads provide municipal debris pickup or trash hauling?
No. The platform records a tree-service-related request for independent-provider review. Municipal collection and household-trash rules are set by the appropriate local authority.
Will FEMA pay for tree-debris hauling?
Certified Tree Leads cannot determine FEMA eligibility. FEMA assistance rules depend on the event and circumstances, and homeowners should check current official guidance and their insurance policy.
Can I submit a debris request after a storm?
Yes, when it is safe to do so. Include photos only from a safe location and use emergency or utility services first for active hazards or downed lines.
