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-enabled operations allow Kenny's Tree & Crane to tackle large removals and stump grinding in tight spaces, including yards and areas close to houses, fences, and other structures. Customers repeatedly note they safely remove massive trees—such as oaks and loblolly pines—while protecting the property and leaving the site clean with impressive cleanup.

They serve the Hampton Roads region, including Yorktown, with responsive scheduling and a focus on safety, near-term availability, and reliable results.

Stump Grinder

Equipped with stump grinding machinery to eliminate leftover stumps after removal. Leaves your yard clean and ready for replanting or landscaping.

Deep stump grinding is a core capability, with crews grinding stumps well below ground level to create level surfaces after work. They regularly tackle multiple stumps in a single job, including instances of eight or more stumps across the property. Work is performed near structures and power lines with a strong emphasis on safety, as crews maneuver heavy equipment in tight spaces without causing damage. Cleanup is thorough, with the ground leveled and debris removed so the yard looks as if no work had been done. Customers note fair pricing, responsiveness, and professionalism, reinforcing confidence in stump grinding as part of their full tree service package on the Peninsula.
