Equipment and Capabilities

Crane

Crane-assisted removal for trees that can't be conventionally climbed or sectioned - ideal for extremely large, hazardous, or tightly situated trees.

Crane use is a recurring capability highlighted by clients, who note lifting heavy palms and trees with specialized equipment. For tall specimens like 25-foot Washingtonian Palms or 20-foot Canary Palms, they report removal and replacement with precision thanks to the crane. They also emphasize safe operation around neighboring properties, with crews coordinating around the equipment to protect landscaping and leave sites clean. The ability to maneuver heavy gear in tight spaces and through renovations makes challenging relocations and installations feasible, a pattern echoed across multiple projects.

Specialty Expertise

Palm Specialist

Knows the unique needs of palm trees - trimming, skinning, removal, and health care specific to the species common in your area.

On-site assessment and personalized guidance are hallmark capabilities, with Joel Mizell often visiting properties to review palm options, take measurements, and advise placement. They source, deliver, and install a wide range of palms, from large established specimens to sought-after varieties, and customers report healthy, beautiful trees even when sourced or installed at long distances. The installation crews are praised for precision—centering, staking for stability, and careful work around structures and neighbors, followed by thorough cleanup. When needed, heavy equipment such as cranes is used to handle tall palms, and projects are completed efficiently with minimal disruption. A one-year tree warranty backs their palm work, and post-install checks and watering guidance help ensure successful establishment. Their palm expertise extends across Florida, serving Tampa, Orlando, Ocala, and other areas, with inquiries from Georgia and Alabama as well.

Tree Services

Tree Planting

Not just removal - these companies help you add trees too. Proper planting technique gives new trees the best chance at a long, healthy life.

Sourcing, delivering, and installing large, rare, and exotic palms and trees is a core capability, backed by a one-year guarantee and more than 50 years of experience. They tailor projects through free consultations and on-site assessments, including house calls to review properties, take measurements, and guide species and placement for optimal growth. Crews arrive on schedule and handle complex installations with equipment like cranes, carefully center and stake each tree for stability, and respect neighbors’ space to minimize collateral impact. After installation, they clean up the site, provide watering guidance or systems, and perform post-installation checks to ensure ongoing health and satisfaction, supported by proactive project administration. The service area covers the entire state of Florida (emphasizing Tampa, Orlando, Ocala and surrounding areas) with additional coverage in Georgia and Alabama upon inquiry, reflecting a family-owned, professional approach and strong value across residential and commercial projects.

Works Near Structures

Skilled at working in tight spaces where trees sit close to homes, fences, garages, or power lines. Precision removal without damage to surrounding structures.

Near-structure projects are handled with proactive site assessment and precise placement, including house calls to review the property, take measurements, and advise on the best spots for trees near buildings, walls, and other hardscapes. Crews arrive with appropriate equipment, including cranes when needed, and work to protect neighboring properties and existing structures—directing neighbors safely around gear and performing meticulous cleanup. Installations near structures emphasize stability and care, with trees positioned slightly elevated, proper staking for wind resistance, and a dedicated watering setup such as a dirt ring to support establishment close to foundations or retaining walls. The process is complemented by thorough project administration and responsive communication, ensuring installation dates are set promptly and customers receive guidance on care, with a clear one-year warranty backing near-structure plantings. Customers consistently praise the results, noting minimal collateral damage, professional crews, and reliable performance placing large, long-lived specimens in constrained spaces across residential settings in Florida.

Their Florida reach spans Tampa, Orlando, and Ocala, with service extending statewide and occasional cross-state work to Georgia and Alabama upon inquiry. Across reviews, customers repeatedly praise knowledgeable guidance, prompt responsiveness, reliable scheduling, and a trusted, highly professional team that treats properties with care.

Family Owned

A business built and run by family, often passed down or grown from the ground up. Personal accountability and pride in every job.

As a second-generation family-owned business, The Tree Planters brings a hands-on, relationship-driven approach that customers repeatedly recognize. Owners like Joel Mizell personally engage in consultations, sometimes visiting properties to advise on placement and take measurements. Customers consistently praise the professionalism and courtesy of the crews, the careful respect for neighbors’ property, thorough cleanups, and the clear one-year warranty that backs installations.

Customer Experience

Affordable

Value for money stands out in feedback, with many clients highlighting fair pricing and competitive quotes for sourcing, delivery, and professional planting of large palms and trees. Customers also note that the service bundle keeps costs predictable—delivery, installation, and thorough cleanup are included, and several mention a favorable price for the scale of trees installed. The one-year warranty backs the work, making premium trees more affordable by reducing long-term risk. Across Florida—especially in Tampa, Orlando, and Ocala—and even for inquiries from nearby states, buyers report affordable access to high-quality trees and expert guidance. Crews are described as professional, on-time, and respectful of properties, helping minimize additional costs from site disruption.

Cleanup Included

All debris - branches, logs, and brush - is hauled away as part of the job. No pile left behind for you to deal with.

Cleanup is included as a standard part of the service, and Florida projects show thorough post-installation tidying across residential and commercial jobs. Crews are routinely praised for cleaning up the job site like they were never there after planting or removal. They respect neighbors' property and navigate around equipment to minimize disruption while cleaning up. Debris is consistently removed and yards are left spotless, with many noting the site looks as if they were never there. In a few cases, they even preserve or relocate existing sod to restore the yard, highlighting a strong commitment to careful site restoration as part of cleanup.
