We Know Tualatin's Trees — and Tualatin's Rules
Tualatin takes its urban forest seriously. The City requires permits for removal of any significant tree, and like its neighbors in West Linn and Wilsonville, Tualatin has specific protections in place for mature trees that shape the character of its neighborhoods. Hiring a company that doesn’t know the local code can mean delays, fines, or work that can’t be completed.
Grove Tree Care navigates Tualatin’s permit process routinely. Whether you’re removing a hazardous tree in Stafford, pruning a mature Douglas fir along the Boones Ferry Road corridor, or dealing with a street tree near Tualatin High School, our ISA-certified arborists assess, advise, and handle the permit documentation from start to finish.
We’re not a franchise dispatched from across the metro. We’re a locally rooted, family-owned company based in Aurora — about 15 minutes from Tualatin — and we’ve been caring for trees in this community for years. When you call us, you’re talking to the people who will actually show up and do the work.
Tualatin Tree Removal — What You Need to Know Before You Call Anyone
Any tree in Tualatin measuring 6 inches or more in diameter at breast height (DBH) requires a permit before removal. Here’s what the process looks like:
Standard Permit — Required for removal of trees 6″+ DBH on private property. Your application goes through Tualatin’s Community Development Department. Our arborists prepare the documentation and guide you through submission.
Street Trees — Trees in the public right-of-way require separate approval and are only removed under specific circumstances — imminent hazard, disease, or death. We handle this process with you.
Dead & Hazardous Trees — Still require a permit in most cases, but are typically approved more quickly with proper ISA arborist documentation showing the hazard. We prepare this for you.
Topping Prohibited — Like West Linn and Wilsonville, topping is prohibited under Tualatin’s tree code and ISA standards. We never top trees — not because we’re required not to, but because it destroys trees and we won’t do work that harms what we’re paid to protect.
Our arborists assess your trees, advise on exactly what’s required, prepare documentation, and submit permits with you. You make one call — we handle the rest.

ISA-Certified Arborists on Every Job
Our certified arborists don’t just quote the job — they’re involved in every project. You get science-based expertise and honest recommendations, not upsells from someone with a chainsaw and a truck.

What Our Customers Say
Tualatin Tree Service — Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, in most cases. Tualatin requires a permit for removal of any tree measuring 6 inches or more in diameter at breast height (DBH). This applies to both healthy and dead or hazardous trees — though hazardous trees are typically approved more quickly with proper ISA arborist documentation. Our arborists assess your tree and advise you on exactly what’s required before any work begins. For a full city-by-city comparison, read our tree removal permit guide for the Portland south metro.
It depends on the size, species, access, and complexity of your job. A small ornamental tree on an open lot costs significantly less than a large conifer near a structure. We provide free, detailed, written estimates with full transparency. For typical price ranges across the south metro, see our 2026 tree removal cost guide for the Portland metro area.
Yes. Grove Tree Care holds Oregon LCB license #100543 and carries full general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. We’re happy to provide proof of insurance before any work begins — and we encourage you to ask any tree company for this before hiring them.
Yes — 24/7. Storm damage, fallen trees, or dangerous hanging limbs — call (503) 208-4071 any time. We’ll get someone out to assess and respond as quickly as possible.
No. Topping is prohibited under Tualatin’s tree code and violates ISA and ANSI A300 standards. It also causes serious long-term structural damage. Grove Tree Care never tops trees. If another company recommends it, that’s a serious red flag.
For most deciduous trees, late winter (February–March) is ideal — before new growth begins, disease risk is lower, and structure is clearly visible. Conifers can generally be pruned year-round. For a detailed breakdown by species and season, read our guide on the best time to prune trees in Portland, Oregon.
Great question. We’ve written a complete guide on how to choose a tree service company in the Portland south metro — covering the credentials to verify, questions to ask on the estimate call, and the red flags that should end any conversation.
Absolutely. All estimates are free, no-obligation, and typically scheduled within a few business days. We come out, assess your trees, explain what we recommend and why, and provide a clear written quote. No pressure, no surprises.
