Tree Removal in the Cass County Seat, Virginia, IL

The city of about 1,500 sits fifteen and a half road miles and twenty-seven minutes up the road. Established in 1836, it runs one K-12 school in Community Unit District 64 and sits on IL-125 toward Ashland.

Wes worked Cass County on storm and line-clearance crews, so these trees are familiar: sugar maples and bur oaks on the square and older blocks, silver maples in back yards, walnut and hackberry on field edges, and dead ash on nearly every street.

Why a Jacksonville Crew Comes to Virginia

What Virginia Can Expect

Twenty-Seven Minutes North

Virginia is a straight run up the county road and we're there most weeks for Cass County work. Brooke books an estimate within a few days and the written price is the same as in Jacksonville.

Courthouse-Town Lots

Sugar maples and bur oaks on the older blocks crowd roofs, fences and lines. We piece them down from the top with every cut tied to a rope.

Dead Ash on Every Street

Ash killed by the emerald ash borer turns brittle within a couple of years and is dangerous to climb. We take it from the bucket while the wood still holds, before it drops limbs on its own.

Downtown Lines, Tight Yards

A real downtown means overhead lines, tight backyards and neighbors close by. Every Virginia removal is planned on the ground before a saw starts.

What Folks in Virginia Want to Know

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Virginia?

Not for a tree wholly on your own lot; Jacksonville's tree ordinance and trimmer license end at the city line. Virginia has its own city code, and we found no permit there for a home-lot tree; ask at City Hall before cutting one over a city street. Burn rules and the rest are on our permits page.
