The Problem: Long Wait Times in Edmonton

If you’ve tried booking an arborist lately, you may have heard, “We’re booking months out.” That’s the reality for many companies in Edmonton and surrounding areas. Demand for tree care—especially after storms or in peak summer—can overwhelm smaller crews.

But what if your tree needs attention now? Whether it’s a broken limb, a hazardous tree leaning toward your home, or just routine pruning, waiting months isn’t always an option.

How Long Does It Usually Take?

Across Edmonton, it’s common to hear of 2–3 month waitlists. Larger companies may prioritize big commercial contracts, leaving homeowners frustrated. That means by the time they arrive, the issue may have worsened—or the season may have changed.
