Tree Removal in Hallandale Beach, FL

Tree Removal in Hallandale Beach is mostly a problem of space. The city covers only about 4.2 square miles of land, and at the 2020 census it held 41,217 people, a density of nearly 9,800 per square mile, far higher than the suburbs to the west. Trees here grow between buildings, parking lots, walls and power lines. There's almost never room to drop a tree whole, so nearly every removal is a piece-by-piece job with careful rigging.

Where Katrina made landfall

Most people associate Hurricane Katrina with New Orleans, but in August 2005 it first came ashore in Florida between Hallandale Beach and Aventura as a Category 1 storm. Twelve years later Hurricane Irma was expected to pass through the city before it turned and made landfall in the Keys and at Naples. Being at the southern tip of Broward on the ocean puts Hallandale Beach in the path of many storms that come up from the south.

A long history for a small place

Henry Flagler recruited Luther Halland to found a settlement south of Dania around 1895, and the community of Halland became the Town of Hallandale in 1927. By then it had about 1,500 residents, electricity and street lights. It was reincorporated as a city in 1947, annexed the Golden Isles neighborhood in 1978 and was renamed Hallandale Beach in 1999. The early economy was farming, and some of the city's older single-family streets still have trees much older than the condos around them.

Condo grounds and associations

The population skews older: the median age was 46.9 in 2020, and almost a quarter of residents (24.4%) were 65 or older. Many live in condominiums and associations, where the board decides on tree work and contractors work around residents, parked cars and walkways. We give associations a written, tree-by-tree scope and plan the work to keep walkways and entrances open.

Before the next storm

On a lot this tight, a tree that fails almost always hits something: a building, a car, a wall or the neighbor's roof. That makes spring the best time to deal with trees that are dead, cracked, leaning or hollow, before hurricane season starts in June. Palms with dead fronds and coconuts hanging over walkways are an easy fix; a large tree growing between two buildings may need to come out entirely. For associations, a once-a-year walk-through of every tree on the property is cheaper than an emergency removal after a storm. We provide written findings for each tree.
