Tree Trimming & Limb Hauling. Trimmed up, cleared out, nothing left in the yard.

Low limbs scraping the roof, pines you cannot mow under anymore, a storm limb hanging over the driveway. Our crew trims it, clears underneath, and loads every branch on the trailer before we leave. Serving Cass, Morgan, and Sangamon County from Virginia, IL.

Show us the limbs and where they hang. Straight answer and a price, usually the same day.

Or text photos straight to (217) 624-7066.

Two ways to do it

We trim and haul, or you cut and we take the pile.

If the limbs are within reach from the ground or a ladder, our crew does the cutting and the hauling together. If you already cut everything and just have a mountain of branches, skip the labor and let us handle the pile.

Why call a hauling crew for trimming

Tree trimming that ends with a clean yard.

Searching tree trimming near me around Springfield or Jacksonville pulls up big tree services with bucket trucks and a two-week wait, most of whom would rather not come out for a few low limbs. That is our lane. We trim what can be reached safely, and because we haul junk for a living, the branches leave with us instead of sitting at the curb.

  • Tree limb removal for the low stuff: limbs over roofs, driveways, sheds, and sidewalks that the big crews will not schedule
  • Limb removal service and hauling in the same visit, so there is no brush pile waiting on the burn ban to lift
  • Tree debris removal after storms, or after another crew trimmed and left the mess for you
  • Brush pile removal from your own cutting, loaded by our crew or filled into a dumpster we drop off
  • Honest about our limits: no climbing, no big felling, and we will tell you when it is an arborist job

FAQ

Trimming and limb hauling questions people ask.

How much does tree trimming cost in Jacksonville, IL?

L&J’s Junk Removal prices trimming and limb hauling as one flat rate that covers the cutting, the cleanup, and the hauling. What moves the number is how many limbs, how high they are, and how much has to leave on the trailer. Text a photo of the tree to (217) 624-7066 and you will get a real price back, usually the same day, or request a free estimate online.

Who does tree limb removal near Jacksonville, Beardstown, and Springfield, IL?

L&J’s Junk Removal trims and hauls low-hanging limbs, overgrown pines, and storm debris across Jacksonville, Beardstown, Springfield, Virginia, Ashland, Petersburg, and the rest of Cass, Morgan, and Sangamon County. We are the crew for the jobs a bucket-truck company will not come out for. Call or text (217) 624-7066 with a photo and the address.

Do you cut down large trees or climb?

No. L&J’s Junk Removal is a trimming and hauling crew, not an arborist service. We handle limbs that can be reached safely from the ground or a ladder, overgrown pines, and clearing underneath, and we haul all of it. If a tree needs to come down whole, is near power lines, or requires someone in a harness, we will tell you up front and suggest a tree company. Text (217) 624-7066 and we will give you an honest read from the photo.

Will you haul away tree limbs I already cut?

Yes. Tree debris removal and brush pile removal are the easiest calls L&J’s Junk Removal takes. Our crew loads your pile onto the dump trailer and hauls it, or we drop a 15 or 20 yard dumpster in the driveway and you fill it over a few days. Send a photo of the pile to (217) 624-7066 or book a dumpster online.

Can you trim pine trees so I can mow under them?

Yes. Trimming up overgrown pines and evergreens is one of the most common jobs L&J’s Junk Removal runs in Cass and Morgan County. We take the low limbs off to a height you can mow under, thin the dead growth out, rake the needles, and haul every branch away. Get a free estimate from a photo or text (217) 624-7066.

Do you clean up storm-damaged limbs in Sangamon County?

Yes. After a storm rolls through Springfield, Chatham, Rochester, or Pleasant Plains, L&J’s Junk Removal sections downed limbs, clears the yard and driveway, and hauls the debris off. We cannot promise an exact arrival window when the whole county is calling, so text (217) 624-7066 with a photo and we will give you the next real opening we have.

Is it cheaper to rent a dumpster or hire junk removal for tree debris?

If you are doing the cutting yourself and can take a few days to fill it, a 15 or 20 yard dumpster from L&J’s Junk Removal is usually the lower-cost route for tree debris. If you want the trimming and the hauling done in one afternoon without lifting anything, the full-service crew is the better value. Text a photo to (217) 624-7066 and we will quote both, or book a dumpster now.

What do you do with the branches after limb removal?

L&J’s Junk Removal hauls tree limbs and brush to a yard-waste drop or a farm that takes brush, not the landfill, whenever one is accepting material. Nothing gets dumped along a country road. If you want the bigger wood left cut and stacked for your own fire pit, tell us when you text (217) 624-7066 and we will leave it neat.
