Brush and debris removal is the chipping and hauling of limbs, brush, hedges, and storm debris that you don't want to wait on the county to collect. Most Tampa pickups run about $150 to $600 depending on the pile, and bigger cleanups are priced by the load. Estimates are free.
Yard cleared of brush and debris beside a home in Tampa, FL

After a storm in Tampa there’s a pile of limbs at every curb, and the county truck is three weeks out. Or it’s not a storm. It’s the hedge that swallowed the fence, the pepper trees along the back line, or the pile of logs the last crew left behind. StormGuard Trees chips and hauls brush and tree debris across Tampa so your yard is clean this week, not next month.

What debris removal includes

  • Chipping and hauling of limbs, brush, and log piles
  • Storm debris cleanup after wind and hurricane damage
  • Removal of overgrown hedges, shrubs, and invasive pepper trees
  • Log hauling and firewood cutting on request
  • Raking and blowing so the lawn is clean when we leave
  • Clearing of fence lines and property edges that have grown in

Storm debris cleanup

When a storm drops limbs all over the yard, the county pickup is free but slow. It also only takes what’s stacked at the curb the right way. Our crew brings the chipper to you, feeds everything through, and hauls it the same day. If a big limb is still hanging in the tree, we take that down too. After Helene and Milton in 2024 we spent weeks doing exactly this from South Tampa to Brandon.

Hedges, shrubs, and pepper trees

Brazilian pepper is the most common invasive tree in Tampa, and it spreads along every fence line it touches. Pulling it by the roots is the only way to keep it from coming back. We remove pepper, ligustrum, and viburnum that have grown into small trees. We can grind the stumps too, so the strip is clean and ready for a new fence or planting.

Chipping on site versus hauling

Chipping is cheaper because the truck holds ten times more chips than it holds branches. That’s what we do with most brush. Big logs get loaded whole and hauled to be milled or split. If you’d like a load of chips for your beds or a stack of oak firewood, tell us and we’ll leave it.

Keep the yard clean going forward

Most debris comes from trees that needed a trim a year ago. If you find yourself raking up the same oak’s limbs every summer, a proper trim is cheaper than a yearly cleanup. We’ll tell you when that’s the case.

Why choose StormGuard Trees for debris removal

We show up when we say we will, we bring the chipper and the truck, and we leave the lawn raked. One written price for the whole pile.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the county pick up my storm debris? +

After a declared storm, Hillsborough County and the City of Tampa run debris pickups, but they can take weeks and the piles have to be stacked a certain way at the curb. We can clear it now.

Do you haul debris I cut myself? +

Yes. Stack it where we can reach it with the truck and we'll chip it and haul it.

Can you remove an overgrown hedge? +

Yes. Old viburnum, ligustrum, and pepper hedges come out roots and all, and we can grind the stumps.

What do you do with the chips? +

Most go to mulch. If you want chips for your own beds, we can leave a load.

Do you clean up after other tree companies? +

We do. If a crew left logs and brush behind, we'll finish the job.
