Trees and pests
State-level lists as of 2026, not a survey of Waco; check your state's official pest map. Ask a certified arborist or your county extension office what is active near you. More in tree care in Texas.
Storm season
Hail and severe thunderstorms are most common from March to June. Hurricane season runs from June to November, and the Gulf coast is the most exposed part of the state.
After a storm: stay clear of leaning or split trees, call the utility for downed lines and 911 if anyone is in danger. Read what to do after a storm or see live storm warnings.
Permits
We could not confirm a city tree permit rule for Waco. Call the city planning or forestry office before removing a large tree, and check your HOA rules.
Short explanation, not legal advice. See tree permits by city and what to ask about permits.

There is no magic number. The median Waco listing we checked had 37 reviews and the three most-reviewed had between 145 and 221 reviews. A newer company can be good with few reviews; read what customers say and how the owner replies.

Hail and severe thunderstorms are most common from March to June. Hurricane season runs from June to November, and the Gulf coast is the most exposed part of the state. Have large trees near the house checked before the season starts.
Late fall through winter is a good time to prune many trees. Oak pruning is usually avoided in spring because of oak wilt, so ask a local arborist for safe dates. Crape myrtles are pruned lightly in late winter. Ask a certified arborist about your tree.
It depends on the tree size, how close it is to the house or lines, access for equipment, cleanup and stump work. We do not publish prices for tree work. Get two or three written quotes so you can compare.
We only name a company when its owner claims a free profile and agrees to show it. We do not rank companies, there is no pay-to-rank, and claimed profiles are shown in alphabetical order. To see every local company, search Google Maps and read their reviews.
Claim your free profile on our claim page. We confirm you run the business by phone or email before anything goes live, and you can ask us to change or remove it at any time.
