Tree Service in Overland, MO

Your Local Tree Service in Overland

Overland sits in mid- and north St. Louis County, just northwest of downtown off I-70 and I-170 in the 63114 ZIP. It's a compact, neighborly community of mostly modest post-WWII single-family homes — many built in the 1940s and '50s on small to mid-size lots, with older pockets tracing back to the early 1900s. Those decades of growth left Overland with rows of mature street trees lining streets like Woodson Road, Lackland Road, and Midland Boulevard. St. Louis Tree Co. helps Overland homeowners and landlords keep those trees safe, healthy, and out of trouble — with professional tree removal, trimming, pruning, stump grinding, and around-the-clock emergency response.

We work all across town, from the Old Overland / Woodson Road business district and the Wild Acres area near the park to the Lackland Road corridor and the neighborhoods around Midland Boulevard. Our crews know the older Overland blocks where big shade trees grow close to compact homes and over the inner-belt traffic on I-170, Page Avenue, Ashby Road, and Brown Road — and we bring the right gear 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 University City, Olivette, Maplewood, and Ferguson. 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.

Overland's Trees & Common Tree Problems

The mature canopy that shades Overland's postwar streets is also showing its age. Yards and parkways here are full of oak, maple, and pin oak planted in the building boom, alongside plenty of older ash. That mix creates a handful of recurring problems:

• Aging, heavy limbs on decades-old trees that fail in St. Louis's spring and summer thunderstorms and straight-line winds — a real hazard over small lots and parked cars near Woodson and Lackland.
• Emerald ash borer (EAB) is present across the region and is killing untreated ash throughout north county. Once an ash dies it turns brittle fast and needs prompt removal.
• Compact lots in Old Overland and the early-1900s sections, where large trees crowd homes, garages, and overhead lines and call for careful rigging.
• Oak wilt risk for the area's many oaks — which is exactly why we prune oaks only during the dormant season.
