Get everyone clear of the area
Move people and pets away from the tree, any hanging limbs, and anything the tree is resting on. Damaged wood can shift or drop further with no warning.

Emergency? Call now.
Call (904) 762-3786What to do first
Treat any downed line as live
If a power line is tangled in the tree or lying anywhere nearby, do not go near it or the tree touching it. Call your utility company immediately to report it before calling anyone else.
Don't attempt to cut it yourself
A tree under tension — leaning on a structure, caught in another tree, or partially uprooted — can release suddenly. Leave cutting to a crew that can assess the load first.
Call us for 24/7 response
Once the area is clear and any utility hazard has been reported, call (904) 762-3786. We respond around the clock, including nights, weekends and holidays.
