1. The Tree Mechanic
The Tree Mechanic provides tree moving and transplanting in Detroit, MI. The business has been operating for 19 years with a team of 3. Before moving day in Detroit, a site visit checks the tree's size, species, and access for equipment. On moving day, the new hole is dug, the tree is lifted and transported, set at the right depth, backfilled, watered, and staked if needed. Common requests for tree moving and transplanting include moving mature shrubs, replanting at a new site, relocating trees for construction, post-move watering plan and crane-assisted tree lifting. A tree planted too close to the house, crowded by others, or in the wrong light conditions may be worth relocating while still manageable. Share the tree species, trunk diameter, approximate height, and photos showing the tree and the planned new location in the yard. Cost depends mainly on trunk size and root ball weight, the equipment needed, moving distance, and site access for heavy machinery. Besides Detroit, homeowners in Highland Park, Ferndale and Hamtramck can reach out for tree moving and transplanting. Posted hours are Monday to Saturday, 8:00 am to 8:00 pm. Accepted payment methods include Cash, Check, Credit card, PayPal, Square cash app and Venmo. To get started, send The Tree Mechanic a request on Fixerlane with the details of your project.
