Palmdale · Lancaster · the Antelope Valley
The desert's signature tree, handled weekly.
Palms are everywhere in the Antelope Valley — and they're their own discipline. Our climbers skin, trim, and remove palms of every height, week in and week out. Brown fronds can signal water stress, extreme heat, wind damage, nutrient deficiency, or improper trimming — our crew reads the tree before touching it.

"UFO Tree Trimming cut down three, very tall palm trees two days ago — and ground out two of the stumps. I called them on Tuesday and the trees were removed on Friday morning. I was very impressed with their professionalism, promptness, eagerness to please, teamwork, and skill. They cleaned everything up beautifully and even replanted three ferns that were in the way. They offered us a very reasonable price. Thank you UFO!!"
Browning fronds have causes — water stress, heat, wind, nutrients, past bad trimming. We diagnose before we cut, so the palm stays healthy.
Certified climbing gear, clean cuts at the crown, skirts stripped without scarring the trunk.
Fronds are heavy and sharp — we haul every one. Harpo A.: three tall palms down, two stumps ground, "cleaned everything up beautifully."

Yes — sectional removal with rigging is exactly what our climbers do. Palms between houses, over pools, or against power-line clearances are routine work, not a special order.
Dry skirts are heavy, they harbor pests, and in a wind-driven fire area they're fuel hanging off a torch-shaped tree. Skirt removal is one of the most practical fire-safety moves a palm owner can make.
Mostly by height. A single-story palm's skin-and-trim sits low in the published $150–$800 range; a 60-footer over a pool is climbing time, and lands high in it. Removals follow the published size tiers, topping out at $4,000–$10,000+ for the tallest technical takedowns. Condition counts too — a decade of unskinned thatch is slower work than a maintained trunk.
