Tree Service in Bedminster, NJ

Long drives and large properties usually leave room to set a crane up, which is the safest way to take down anything big. That shapes most tree service in Bedminster, NJ: removals, pruning, stump grinding and storm cleanup.

Trusted tree care for Bedminster since 1993

On a Bedminster property a mistake is expensive, so you should know who is doing the work before it starts. Everything is covered for liability and workers' compensation, the company is registered with the New Jersey Board of Tree Experts, and Peter Ahlert is the Licensed Tree Care Operator.

Tree removal in Bedminster gets planned around the drive and the lawn as much as around the tree: mats where the ground needs them, brush chipped on site, and no ruts left behind. We prune the older specimens on a cycle so they keep going, grind stumps below grade, and leave the grounds ready to mow.

At Wayne’s Tree Service, we proudly serve the Bedminster community with safe, affordable, and expert-level tree care.

Tree Removal Service

Tree Removal

Bedminster is estate country: big properties, long drives and old trees with a lot of weight in them. There is usually room to set the crane up, which makes a large removal faster and safer.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Estate trees are worth looking after properly. We prune to keep the shape and take out the dead and rubbing limbs. No topping and no stripping the inner branches. That ruins a good tree.

Stump Grinding and Removal

Stump Grinding & Removal

On a big property nobody wants a row of stumps left behind. We grind them all well below grade and level the ground so it mows over cleanly.

Tree & Shrub Planting service

Tree & Shrub Planting

There is space here to plant a tree that will still be impressive in fifty years. We pick for the site and the soil and get the root flare set at the right height.

How we plant
Land Clearing Service

Land Clearing

Fence lines, paddocks, riding rings and overgrown field edges. We take out the timber and brush and grind the stumps down.

Bedminster’s Tree Removal Rules: When You Actually Need a Permit

Bedminster does not work off a simple size limit the way most towns do. Under Chapter 12 of the Township Code, an ordinary single-family homeowner can take down up to 10 trees a year, as long as that is also under 10% of the trees on the lot, with no permit at all.

What pulls you back into the permit is position, not size. A tree 5 inches across or more within 10 feet of a property line counts if a neighboring house sits within 150 feet, and so does any work in a Township right-of-way, on slopes of 25% or steeper, within 100 feet of a ridge line, or in a mapped habitat area. Dead and diseased trees are exempt outright.

  • Permit trigger (single-family zones): more than 10 trees a year, or over 10% of the lot’s trees
  • Regulated size: 5 inches across, measured 4.5 feet up; any size in a Township right-of-way
  • Always needs a permit: a regulated tree within 10 ft of a property line where a home is within 150 ft
  • Exempt: dead or diseased trees, and nuisance species such as Ailanthus unless within 100 ft of a street
  • Fee: $100 nonrefundable, plus an inspection escrow posted before work starts
  • Administered by the Township Engineer, through Code Enforcement
