Tree Service in Hazelwood, MO

Your Local Tree Service in Hazelwood

Hazelwood is a second-ring north St. Louis County city — incorporated in 1949 and spread across roughly 16.8 square miles in the 63042 ZIP (overlapping 63031 and 63134). It blends quiet postwar residential streets with some of the region's biggest industrial and logistics districts. You'll find single-family ranches and split-levels with established yard trees in Old Town Hazelwood (Elm Grove) and along the Howdershell Road corridor, sitting near the sprawling McDonnell Boulevard business district and the former Ford plant grounds, now the Aviator Business Park. St. Louis Tree Co. helps Hazelwood homeowners keep their trees safe and healthy with professional tree removal, trimming, pruning, stump grinding, and 24/7 emergency response.

We work all across Hazelwood, from the older Elm Grove streets and the neighborhoods off Lindbergh Boulevard (Hwy 67) to the residential pockets near White Birch Bay Aquatic Center and the Hazelwood Sports Complex. Bordered by I-270, I-170, and Route 370 — with Lambert International Airport just to the south — Hazelwood sees plenty of open exposure, and our crews bring the right equipment and a careful, safety-first plan to every job.

St. Louis Tree Co. works across the metro every week, so if your property sits close by we also provide tree service in nearby Florissant, Ferguson, and Maryland Heights. Like the rest of the region, the trees here face the ongoing spread of emerald ash borer, while local oaks need correctly timed pruning to avoid oak wilt. And for a sense of pricing before you call, see our guide to tree removal costs in St. Louis.

Hazelwood's Trees & Common Tree Problems

Hazelwood's residential canopy matured along with its postwar build-out — yards full of oak, maple, pin oak, and ash planted from the 1950s onward. That aging canopy, combined with the area's open metro exposure, leads to a familiar set of problems:

• Aging postwar trees now large enough to drop heavy limbs in St. Louis's spring and summer thunderstorms and straight-line winds.
• Emerald ash borer (EAB), active region-wide, killing untreated ash throughout Hazelwood. Dead ash become brittle fast and need prompt removal.
• Open, wind-exposed ground with the Missouri River corridor and the Route 370 / Earth City lowlands just to the west, which adds storm and straight-line-wind risk to taller trees.
• Oak wilt risk for Hazelwood's many oaks — which is why we prune oaks only during the dormant season.
