Post Falls has grown fast, and a lot of that growth happened around mature timber that was already standing when the foundations went in. Big ponderosa pine, dense Douglas fir, cottonwood along the Spokane River, and old shelterbelt rows on the north side all become emergencies when a windstorm hits. Spokane Hazardous Tree Removal is the emergency tree service Post Falls homeowners and property managers call when something has already failed and the situation cannot wait. We are not a generic landscaping outfit. We are dangerous-tree specialists — climbers, riggers, and crane operators built specifically for the moment a tree has already come down or is one gust away from coming down.

When You Should Call Right Now
Call the emergency line the moment a tree fails. If a tree has fallen on your Post Falls home, attached garage, detached shop, vehicle, or fence — that is a now problem, not a tomorrow problem. If a tree is leaning hard after a windstorm, has a fresh crack at the base, is hung up in another tree, is touching or threatening a power line, or is blocking your driveway or a public roadway, that is also a now problem. Every hour a fallen tree sits, water finds a way into the structure, insurance claims get more complicated, and the failure mode gets worse. Our dispatcher will get your address, the situation, and any safety risks, and have a crew rolling toward Post Falls inside the first call.
Protecting Structures, Driveways, and Power Lines
Most emergency tree work in Post Falls happens within feet of something you cannot afford to lose. A 90-foot ponderosa across the roof. A Doug fir that took out the corner of the garage. A cottonwood limb that ripped down the service drop. Our emergency protocol is built around protecting what is still standing: we tarp the roof first, secure the area around the failure, isolate any electrical hazards with Avista or Kootenai Electric, and then start the removal in a sequence that does not add damage. On driveway and structure failures we use the crane to lift sections directly off the damaged area rather than dragging weight across it. The job is not done until everything that was not damaged still is not damaged.
Storm Cleanup and North Idaho Windstorms
Post Falls sits in the wind track that runs east off the Rathdrum Prairie and pushes through every major storm system that hits the Inland Northwest. We see the same pattern every fall and winter: a south wind on saturated ground, a wet snow load on still-leafy cottonwoods, an ice storm that loads canopies past their breaking point. After a major storm we run multiple Post Falls crews in parallel — one on structural impacts, one on driveway and access clearance, one on yard-only cleanup. If your power is out and trees are down across the neighborhood, we are often on-scene before the utility restoration crews finish their first sweep.
Large Pines, Difficult Access, and Technical Climbing
Post Falls properties — especially out toward Hauser, Stateline, and the river — carry timber that requires more than a chainsaw. Large ponderosa over a manufactured home, leaning Doug fir wedged between two outbuildings, a stand of pines along a narrow private drive — these are crane jobs or technical climbing jobs, and we do both. Our climbers set rigging high, lower sections to controlled landing zones, and never let weight swing over a structure. When a crane can reach, we use it; when access is too tight, we climb. Either way the tree comes down piece by piece in a sequence we control, not all at once in a direction we hope works out.
Insurance Documentation Done Right
Most Post Falls emergencies are covered, at least in part, by homeowner insurance. We work with every major carrier in Idaho — State Farm, Allstate, USAA, Farmers, Mutual of Enumclaw, Liberty Mutual, PEMCO — and we produce exactly what their adjusters need: timestamped photos before we touch the scene, a written hazard assessment, an itemized invoice in the format adjusters expect, and direct phone communication with the adjuster if you want us to handle it. In most cases you pay only your deductible up front.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is your emergency line really answered 24 hours a day?
Yes — we accept emergency calls at (509) 204-4333 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays. We get your address and situation, then dispatch as soon as we safely can; timing depends on location, weather, crew availability, and safe access.
How fast can you get to Post Falls?
Post Falls is one of our primary North Idaho service areas. We dispatch as soon as we safely can — response timing depends on location, weather, crew availability, and safe access.
Do you charge more for after-hours emergencies?
There is a modest after-hours surcharge, but it is almost always less than the additional water damage, structural damage, or insurance complications that come from waiting until morning.
What if the tree is touching a power line?
Stay at least 30 feet away. Call us and the utility immediately. We coordinate with Kootenai Electric or Avista to de-energize the line before any work begins — do not approach the tree or the line yourself.
Will my homeowner insurance cover this?
If the tree damaged a covered structure (house, garage, fence, sometimes vehicle), most Idaho homeowner policies cover removal up to a per-tree limit, plus the structural repair. We document everything your adjuster needs and can bill insurance directly when allowed.
