The trees other companies turn down. Our Palfinger crane lifts massive, dangerous trees straight up and out — over houses, pools, and power lines — safely and in a fraction of the time. Proudly serving Pickens and all of Pickens County.
Pickens' steep foothill lots toward Table Rock often put a big tree on ground too sloped to work from below, so we set the Palfinger crane on the firmest spot and lift sections away from the home under full control. It's the safe answer for hardwoods and pines leaning on a grade or storm-loaded off the Blue Ridge, where dropping wood downhill is dangerous. Crane work is faster and gentler on the property, and the grapple truck clears the debris fast.
We cover every corner of Pickens, from Downtown Pickens and Pumpkintown to Pickens Mill and the areas around Table Rock State Park and Doodle Trail — neighborhoods and properties we know well and reach quickly for crane tree removal.

Crane removals typically start around $1,500 and rise with size, access, and risk; the crane often makes a difficult job cheaper, not more expensive, by cutting time and labor.
A clear, proven process that protects your Pickens property from start to finish.
We evaluate the tree, lean, targets, and crane access, then engineer a lift plan around your home.
We position the crane, set rigging points, and protect structures and landscaping.
We cut and the crane lifts each section straight up and away — nothing drops on your property.

The Palfinger knuckle-boom crane is the centerpiece of our fleet — most local companies simply don't own one. It's why Pickens homeowners and businesses call us for the big, technical removals — the work that needs real equipment and a properly insured crew.
