Cicero isn’t Syracuse. The lots are bigger, the tree lines are longer, and when the wind comes across Oneida Lake it doesn’t ask permission.
That makes for a different kind of tree work.
Cicero jobs aren’t backyard jobs
Tree lines and fence rows. A lot of Cicero properties have a row of old trees along the edge of what used to be a field. When those go bad, it’s rarely just one tree.
Lake country. Up toward Brewerton and the south shore of Oneida Lake, trees take wind from across open water. Camps, cottages and year-round homes all deal with limbs on roofs and trees down after storms.
Land clearing. Building a pole barn, putting in a driveway, opening up a back acre? That’s clearing work, and some crews specialize in it. Tell us what you’re planning and we’ll point you at one that does.
Dead ash in the woods. Emerald ash borer hit wooded properties hard. If you’ve got a stand of ash near the house, the driveway or the road, it’s worth having somebody walk it.
How it works
You call and tell us about the property. We connect you with an independent crew that works Cicero. They come out, walk it with you, and give you a written quote. More on how it works.
Cicero odds and ends
- For bigger clearing jobs, ask whether the crew will chip on site, haul it off, or leave the logs. It changes the price.
- Trees near the road can involve the town or county highway department. Ask before cutting anything at the road edge.
- Waterfront trees can come with extra rules. If you’re right on the lake, ask the crew or the town whether a permit is needed.
Questions people ask
Do you cover Brewerton and the lake shore?
Yes. Cicero, Brewerton, South Bay and the Oneida Lake shore in the town.
Can a crew clear an acre or two for building?
Some crews do land clearing. Tell us what you’re planning and we’ll connect you with one that handles bigger jobs.
I have a lot of dead ash in my woods. Do they all have to come down?
Not necessarily. The ones that could hit a house, a driveway, a road or a power line are the priority. A crew can walk it with you.
Can I keep the firewood?
Usually, if you ask. Crews may leave logs cut to length and haul the brush.
