Dead and hazardous trees in Boulder

Dead trees get more brittle every year, which makes them harder and more dangerous to remove, and more likely to come down in a storm. Leaning trees, split trunks and large dead limbs are worth having assessed.

Good to know in Boulder

Boulder sees strong chinook winds, spring hail and quick swings between warm days and freezing nights.

Any planting, pruning or removal of a tree in Boulder's public street right-of-way needs authorization from Boulder Forestry first.

Emerald ash borer was found in Boulder in 2013, the first in Colorado, and it kills untreated ash trees. If you have an ash, have it checked and decide on treatment or removal before it turns brittle.

FAQ

Common questions

How do I know if a tree is dead?

No leaves in season, peeling bark, fungus at the base or brittle twigs that snap. An arborist can confirm.

Is a leaning tree dangerous?

A tree that has always leaned may be stable. A new lean, cracked soil or lifted roots are warning signs.

Is stump grinding included in removal?

Not always. Ask whether the quote includes grinding and hauling away the wood.
