Testimonials
We had a very large tree we needed removed and we got 3 quotes. Caffrey was very competitive on their bid so we went with them. I called and they said they’d get it on their books and would call me a day in advance. Well, they cut it down quickly and ground the stumps and roots completely. Then they cleaned up everything. It’s like the tree never existed! So, they were quick, clean, and effective. That’s about all I could ask for.
Amazing service, great price and professional, timely service. The Caffrey team was a pleasure to work with. They gave me their best price upfront, offered options, and beat the local discount tree service on every front. The work was scheduled immediately and they showed up on time. Clean-up was wonderful as well. They even called after the work to make sure the service went well. Highly recommend. We had 4 trees removed and property trimming. Now we have them coming back to replant!
After we bought our house, my wife and I had a wonderful experience with Caffrey’s tree removal service. They went above and beyond in clearing out both the front and back yards for us. Their pricing was extremely fair, and their crews were very skilled and professional. If you need tree removal done in the area, these guys are the ones to call!

FAQ
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Scotch Plains, NJ?
If the tree is in the public right-of-way (for example, near the street/sidewalk), Scotch Plains requires Township approval before a tree can be pruned or removed. For trees on private property, requirements can depend on the situation, so it’s best to confirm with the Township before scheduling removal—and we can help you do that by identifying whether the tree is likely in the right-of-way and what details the Township will ask for (location, photos, approximate size).
Do you offer emergency tree service in Scotch Plains?
Yes. If a tree or large limb comes down after a storm, we can respond quickly to secure the area, remove hazards, and clean up debris.
Can you remove a tree that’s close to my house or near power lines?
Yes. Many Scotch Plains properties have mature trees close to homes, garages, or overhead lines. We use controlled rigging and, when needed, crane-assisted removal to keep the work safe and precise.
Do you provide stump grinding in Scotch Plains?
Yes. Stump grinding removes the stump below grade so the area can be reseeded, replanted, or used for landscaping. We can also haul away chips if you prefer.
Do you take the wood and debris away?
Yes. Cleanup and hauling are included unless you’d like to keep the wood for firewood—just let us know during the estimate.
