Storm Cleanup After May’s Destructive Winds

Storm Damage in Minnesota: A Real Look at Local Impact

In May, strong winds swept across Otter Tail and Becker County, bringing down large trees and leaving yards across the region covered in broken limbs, brush, and debris. The aftermath required immediate and skilled response—something our Three Pines Tree Service crew provided within hours of the storm passing.

🎥 [In the video below], you'll see our team navigating storm-affected residential properties. The footage shows large tree limbs scattered across a lawn, a fallen tree blocking access, and our specialized equipment—including grapples and loaders—clearing hazardous debris quickly and safely. You’ll notice how carefully we remove logs and brush to minimize further property damage and restore safety.

What to Expect From a Professional Storm Cleanup

When the unexpected happens, property owners shouldn’t have to worry about how to clean up a mess caused by Mother Nature. Three Pines delivers expert-level service when it matters most:

Emergency Tree Removal

We safely cut and remove downed or leaning trees that threaten homes, driveways, sheds, or vehicles. Our team uses aerial lifts and climbing techniques to address hard-to-reach areas.

Debris & Brush Clearing

Storms don’t just drop limbs—they scatter twigs, bark, branches, and uprooted brush across your yard. We clear it all to restore the usability and beauty of your space.

Lot & Property Clearing

If your property was hit heavily, we offer full lot clearing to get your land back in shape quickly.

Why DIY Storm Cleanup Can Be Dangerous

Trees damaged by wind often fall under extreme tension. A seemingly simple limb can become a major hazard if cut incorrectly. That's why storm cleanup is best handled by professionals trained in arborist safety and hazard mitigation. At Three Pines, we follow strict safety protocols, use industry-grade tools, and have the experience to remove even the largest trees without causing further damage.
