Tacoma Power will remove trees that are directly under or so close to our energized primary lines that they may pose an electrical hazard, or are unlawful for an otherwise qualified contractor to remove. Branches and chips will be hauled away, and large pieces of wood may be left for the owner's use. Trees close to power lines that are severely leaning, dead, decayed or pose a hazard to power lines may be removed by Tacoma Power. We reserve the right to refuse removal of any tree which may be safely removed by a qualified tree worker when no electrical hazard exists or there is no possibility of damage to the electrical system.

To request tree removal service, please print the Request Tree Service and Removal form, fill it out and mail it to us at:
