Priority Tree Service in Clark County, WA
Clark County is towering-conifer country. Douglas fir, western red cedar, and bigleaf maple grow tall and fast here, which is beautiful right up until a winter windstorm or an ice event puts a 100-foot tree over your roof. We cover the whole county, from the established neighborhoods of Vancouver and the wooded acreage of Felida, Hockinson, and Brush Prairie to the Gorge-wind exposure out in Camas and Washougal. As an ISA Certified Arborist-led team we do more than cut: we assess risk, prune to keep your trees healthy, and remove what has to go safely, then clean up like we were never there.
Tree removal in Clark County is what we are called for most, alongside tree trimming and pruning and stump grinding. For the biggest and most awkward trees we bring crane-assisted removal to Clark County, and we also handle emergency storm response, hedge and shrub trimming, and certified arborist reports for homeowners and businesses across Clark County.
Permit rules change with the jurisdiction. Inside Vancouver city limits, the City's Urban Forestry office requires a permit to remove private trees in several situations, including any property with sensitive areas, and warns that starting without one means a violation and fines. Elsewhere in Clark County the rule is set locally. We will tell you what applies to your address and write the arborist report if your jurisdiction wants one. See our guide to tree removal permits in Clark County.
We are a family-run team led by an ISA Certified Arborist, covering Clark County, and we treat your Clark County property like our own. Call (360) 949-9858 or request a free estimate and we will take a look.

Crane-assisted removalWhat Clark County, WA Homeowners Say
This is our second time using Priority Tree Service and we have been very happy with their service each time. Pricing is fair, communication is great, workmanship great and clean-up excellent. We will definitely use them again in the future.
Stephen came out to look at my beloved front yard tree. We are redoing the front yard, and I wanted to make sure the tree was healthy. He gave it a thorough inspection and did not try to sell me anything. Should the tree show signs of stress from our work, he gave me some ideas on care. I will bring Priority Tree back in the fall to give this tree a professional pruning.
They did an awesome job removing a tree from my front yard. They were very fast, timely in their communication and punctual. The tree was removed safely and the were able to protect nearby rose bushes without a problem. They cleaned up quickly and left the street cleaner then when it started. I would use them again and highly recommend.
