Formerly known as Matt’s Tree Trimming & Removal. Same team, same family-owned roots — new name, evolved equipment.

How we started

West Texas Tree Removal began in 2014 as Matt’s Tree Trimming & Removal, sparked by a devastating ice storm that ravaged trees across West Texas. At the time, our founder, Matt, worked as an electrician. On weekends and after hours, he stepped in to clear fallen branches and broken limbs tangled in trees.

The following year, those early customers returned with additional tree care needs — leading to the official launch of Matt’s Tree Trimming & Removal in September 2015.

How we’ve grown

Since then, we’ve grown significantly — investing in ISA courses on proper pruning and rigging techniques, and acquiring advanced equipment to enhance safety and efficiency. Matt’s passion for continuous learning drives our commitment to improving service quality.

The rebrand to West Texas Tree Removal

In late 2023, we made a major leap forward with the purchase of a brand-new Altec Knuckleboom crane equipped with a grapplesaw — revolutionizing our tree removal capabilities. This innovation prompted our rebranding to West Texas Tree Removal, reflecting our specialization in crane-assisted, remote-controlled tree removal.

We’re excited to serve more neighbors and fellow West Texans. Contact us today for a free consultation — give us a call or send a message.

Why homeowners choose us

Why choose West Texas Tree Removal

Three things consistently set us apart from the typical climber-and-rope crew working the Permian Basin.

01

Better equipment

Altec grapple-saw truck + spider lift = faster, safer, cleaner removals.

02

Fully insured

Coverage on every truck before we touch your property. Proof on request.

03

Competitive pricing

Fewer hours per job means quotes that beat slower climber crews.

Why we’re faster & cleaner

The right equipment beats more bodies on the ground.

Most tree removal still relies on climbers, ropes, and a big crew working slowly and carefully around your house. We invested in machinery built for exactly these jobs — which is why we finish faster, charge less, and leave less mess.

Us vs. typical crews

What "faster, cleaner" actually means

With our equipment
  • 2–3 person crew, most jobs done in half a day
  • Limbs lowered in a controlled way — no rope free-falls
  • Equipment that can reach the backyard — man-lift fits through small gates, crane reaches deep yards
  • Cleanup as we work — yard reset before we leave
  • Fewer hours = competitive pricing without corner-cutting
Traditional crews
  • 3–4 person ground crew, full day per tree
  • Climbers + ropes — slower and more risk to property
  • No backyard access — no man-lifts for small gates, no cranes for deep-yard reach
  • Cleanup as a separate billing line
  • More hours = higher quotes
