Tree Services in Cary: good to know

Before a tree comes down in Cary, two questions matter: are you free to remove it, and where does the debris go?

  • Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Cary?

    Cary's tree protection rules do not apply to trees on existing single-family lots, champion trees included, unless the tree sits in a protected buffer. Buffers of every type are protected, including the 50 and 100 foot buffers along streams. HOA approval may still apply. Source: Town of Cary Land Development Ordinance, Sec. 7.2.5.

  • Does Cary pick up leaves at the curb?

    The Town of Cary collects loose leaves in three rounds per street, starting in early November, late November and early January. Leaves go at the curb and out of the roadway, loose rather than bagged, and free of sticks. The rest of the year yard waste goes out weekly in reusable containers, paper bags or tied bundles, with limbs under 4 feet long and 4 inches thick. Source: Town of Cary: Loose Leaf Collection.

NC State Extension recommends pruning established deciduous trees in late winter while they are dormant, and avoiding autumn, when decay fungi are releasing spores. Source: NC State Extension: General Pruning Techniques.

Why it matters

  • Safety

    Dead limbs and leaning trees come down before a storm brings them down on your roof.

  • Tree health

    Correct pruning cuts keep trees growing strong instead of stressed and split.

  • Clean finish

    Every job ends with debris hauled and the area cleaned, not a pile left at the curb.
