Removal for dead, declining, damaged or unwanted trees. We assess tree condition, nearby structures and the available access before recommending how the tree should come down. Your estimate should specify the trees included, wood and brush handling, and the stump finish.

Working in Pelzer
Seasoned Tree Care has completed 53 Pelzer jobs since 2023, including 42 removal jobs, 18 pruning jobs and 8 storm or fallen-tree calls. Some jobs included more than one service. On small mill-town lots, mature hardwoods often stand close to houses, porches and neighboring yards. Seven local jobs used the crane to lift sections clear of those obstacles.
Seasoned Tree Care is based in Honea Path and owned by Johnathan Zoch. We carry $2 million in general liability coverage and workers' compensation. Ask for a certificate of insurance and a written description of the work before scheduling.
On a roomy lot, a climber can rope limbs down and lower the trunk in sections. On a tight one, every piece has to land somewhere, and in much of Pelzer the only open ground is the street or the driveway. Our Palfinger crane sets up there and lifts each cut section clear of the roof, fences and power drops. The setup depends on access, ground conditions and the tree’s position. At the estimate we tell you which method fits your tree and why.
Ground near the river stays soft after rain, and trees growing on a bank tend to lean toward open light over the water or toward a yard. A lean that gets worse after a wet spell, soil heaving at the base, or roots lifting on one side are reasons to call before a storm decides for you. We cover Pelzer and West Pelzer, and we use ground protection on soft lawns so trucks don't rut the yard.
We logged 8 storm and fallen-tree jobs in Pelzer since 2023. If a tree is on a house, a car or a line, keep everyone away from it and call (864) 762-1253. For anything touching a power line, call the utility first. Once it is safe to work, we remove the tree in controlled sections, clear the debris and leave the site ready for your roofer or insurance adjuster.
In August 2026 part of an ash tree came down in a Pelzer front yard and another section was leaning toward the house, so we took both down and cleaned up the yard. That September we used the crane to remove a large post oak behind an outbuilding, and in June we pulled fallen trees out of a creek, cut the logs into firewood and mulched the brush.
Price & planning
The tree's size and condition, access, nearby structures, equipment and cleanup all affect the price. Our tree-work minimum is $500; stump grinding is priced separately. Your written estimate follows an on-site assessment.
| Type of removal | Planning range |
|---|---|
| Small tree | $500–$700 |
| Medium tree | $600–$1,800 |
| Large tree | $1,500–$4,500+ |
| Complex removal | $3,000–$9,000+ |
These are planning ranges, not a quote for your tree. Unusual access, extensive damage or other complications can increase the cost. Stump treatment and debris handling must be specified.
Read the tree-removal pricing guide →Show us where a truck can park and how close the tree stands to the house, porch and property line. On a tight lot, that decides whether we rig the tree down in pieces or bring the crane. If you want the stump ground as well, say so and we will price it as a separate add-on.

Before you book
Our mailing address is a Pelzer P.O. box (P.O. Box 324, Pelzer, SC 29669), but our shop, crew and equipment are in Honea Path, at 950 Holliday Dam Rd. We've done 53 jobs in Pelzer since 2023. Call (864) 762-1253 to set up a free written estimate.
Usually, yes. We rig limbs and trunk sections down on ropes when there is room to lower them, and use our Palfinger crane when there isn't: it sets up in the street or drive and lifts each section over the roof to the truck. Seven of our Pelzer jobs since 2023 were crane-assisted. We decide the method at the on-site estimate.
Yes. We cover Pelzer and West Pelzer. Trees near the river often stand on soft, sloping ground, so we look closely at lean, root lift and where equipment can set up without rutting the yard.
Yes. Stump grinding is an add-on to tree removal, quoted per job and listed separately in your written estimate. It isn't subject to our $500 minimum for tree work, so you can decide stump by stump.
