Tree Service in Trenton, TX

Trenton is a railroad town in southwestern Fannin County, settled in 1852 when a wagon train of families came from Tennessee and platted a townsite around the Missouri, Kansas and Texas line. The first name for the place was Wild Cat Thicket. When the post office opened in 1881, it took the name of Trenton, New Jersey, put forward by Dr. W. C. Holmes, the pioneer physician who ran the Trenton Tribune and is called the father of Trenton. About 740 people live here now. US 69 runs through the northeast side toward Denison and Greenville, and SH 121 crosses it at a diamond interchange: fifteen miles northeast to Bonham, seventeen miles southwest to Melissa.

The tree work here is farm-town work. The old neighborhoods carry yard oaks and pecans planted generations back: big established trees that mostly need deadwood cleanup and clearance, not major surgery. The farm roads outside town run fence rows thick with cedar and volunteer elms. Trenton was once one of the biggest onion shipping points in North Texas, and the fields still grow onions, cattle feed, and hay. The shelterbelt trees around the fields take wind all spring, so hazard work after storm season is steady.

We work Trenton from the highway interchange to the county roads: deadwood cleanup and clearance on the old yard trees, selective cedar clearing on fence rows and acreage, storm cleanup when the weather crosses the open ground, and full removals with the stump ground and the property left clean. Free on-site estimates. Straight talk about what the tree needs and what it does not.
