Common hazardous limb situations
- Hanging limb after wind or ice
- Cracked branch union
- Limb over a roof, driveway, or fence
- Dead limb above a play area or walkway
- Storm-damaged limb still attached to the tree
Do not treat risky limbs as a DIY project
Heavy limbs can shift, split, or fall unpredictably. If utility lines are involved or anything feels immediately dangerous, contact the utility company or emergency services first.
Details to include
Share photos, limb location, approximate height, what is beneath it, whether access is fenced or gated, and whether the limb is near a structure or utility line.
