Our Services

Complete land and tree solutions for residential and commercial properties across Mid-Michigan.

Land Clearing

Land clearing is the process of removing everything from a piece of land to prepare it for construction, farming, or development. This includes:

  • Trees (small and large)
  • Brush and shrubs
  • Stumps and roots
  • Rocks and debris

It often involves heavy equipment like bulldozers, excavators, and forestry mulchers. The goal is to leave the land completely usable and level for its next purpose.

Lot Clearing

Lot clearing is similar to land clearing but usually on a smaller, more specific scale (like a residential or commercial lot).

  • Focuses on preparing a single property for building
  • Removes trees, brush, and obstacles
  • May include grading and leveling

Think of it as a more targeted version of land clearing.

Lawn Care

Lawn care focuses on maintaining and improving the health and appearance of grass and turf. Services typically include:

  • Mowing
  • Fertilizing
  • Weed control
  • Aeration
  • Overseeding

The goal is a thick, green, healthy lawn over time—not just cutting grass.

Tree Removals

Tree removal is the complete cutting down and removal of a tree. This includes:

  • Cutting the tree safely (often in sections)
  • Removing limbs and trunk
  • Hauling away debris
  • Optional stump grinding

This service is needed when trees are dead, dangerous, diseased, or in the way of construction.

Tree Trimming

Tree trimming is mainly for appearance and basic maintenance. It involves:

  • Cutting back overgrown branches
  • Shaping the tree
  • Removing branches that hang too low or near structures

It improves the look of the tree and helps prevent minor hazards.

Tree Service (General)

“Tree service” is a broad term that includes all tree-related work:

  • Tree removal
  • Tree trimming
  • Tree pruning
  • Stump grinding
  • Emergency tree work
  • Tree health assessments

It’s basically a catch-all term for professional tree care.

Tree Pruning

Tree pruning is more precise and health-focused than trimming. It involves:

  • Removing dead, diseased, or damaged branches
  • Improving tree structure and growth
  • Preventing disease spread
  • Encouraging healthy development

Pruning is typically done with knowledge of tree biology and proper cutting techniques.

Brush Clean Up

Brush clean up involves removing:

  • Small trees
  • Thick undergrowth
  • Vines and overgrown vegetation
  • Fallen branches

This service improves property appearance, reduces fire risk, and makes land usable again.

Storm Clean Up

Storm clean up is emergency or post-weather work after events like high winds, ice storms, or heavy snow. It includes:

  • Removing fallen trees and limbs
  • Clearing driveways, yards, and structures
  • Hauling debris
  • Making the area safe again

This often requires quick response and safety-focused work.

Landscaping

Landscaping is about designing and improving outdoor spaces. It can include:

  • Planting trees, shrubs, and flowers
  • Installing mulch, rock, or decorative features
  • Building garden beds
  • Grading and shaping land
  • Installing sod or seeding lawns

This is more about aesthetics and functionality—making a property look clean, attractive, and usable.

Michelle S

Just had several trees removed from my backyard by Middle of the Mitten Tree Service, and I’m beyond impressed. It wasn’t an easy job—tight space, limited access—but they handled it quickly, safely, and with total professionalism. The crew was not only efficient but also incredibly kind and respectful. You can tell they really care about the quality of their work and the people they’re helping. If you need tree removal done right (especially in tricky spots), I highly recommend them. Fast, friendly, and top-notch service from start to finish.

Ron H

Middle Of Mitten Tree service exceeded all expectations. They went above and beyond and were very professional, but yet informative. I had three quotes done to trim up two trees and take down a very large tree, his quote was so inexpensive compared to the others and did so much more. I was certainly impressed. I have more trees to take down and middle of the mitten will be doing all my tree service.

Noah and the crew came out with a crane and removed a huge oak tree overhanging my house after a storm broke a large branch off. The tree had to go! They came out, got it all down safely, and hauled it all away. We will be using Middle of the Mitten Tree Service again in the future.
