Brush, Debris & Storm Cleanup Removal in NJ
Haul away the brush, branches, limbs and storm debris cluttering your property — chipped on-site or trucked clean off — by the arborists Essex & Morris County have trusted since 1984.
T&D Tree Service is a family-owned tree care company in Livingston, New Jersey, providing fast, thorough brush removal, debris hauling and storm cleanup throughout Essex County and Morris County since 1984. When a storm drops limbs across your yard, a project leaves a mountain of branches behind, or years of growth have buried a fence line and a back corner in brush, our crews clear it out, chip what we can on-site, and haul the rest away — leaving the property clean, open and safe again.
Brush and debris are more than an eyesore. Piles of dead branches invite rodents, ticks and carpenter ants, feed fires, hide spotted lanternfly egg masses, and choke the drainage and light your lawn and beds need. Our ISA Certified crews bring the trucks, chippers and manpower to clear it in a single visit — whether it’s post-storm wreckage that ties into our emergency tree service, the aftermath of a tree removal, or a long-overdue property cleanup. We’re licensed and fully insured — and we clean up completely, every time.
Brush and debris, gone in one visit
Trucks, chippers and manpower to clear your property and haul every last pile away.
Brush & Branch Removal
Cutting and hauling piled brush, branches, limbs and saplings from anywhere on your property — front, back and hard-to-reach corners.
Storm Debris Cleanup
Fast cleanup of downed limbs, split branches and wind-blown debris after a storm — often the same week, tied to our emergency service.
Overgrown Property Cleanup
Reclaiming neglected yards, back lots and rental properties buried under years of brush, vines and volunteer growth.
Fence-Line Clearing
Clearing the brush, briars and saplings crowding fence lines, property lines and sheds so you can access and maintain them again.
On-Site Chipping
Running brush through our chipper right on your property — turning it into mulch you keep or debris we haul away.
Haul-Off & Disposal
Loading and trucking every branch, log and pile off-site for clean disposal — nothing left behind.
Two ways to clear the pile
Not all brush has to leave your property. Where it makes sense, we run branches straight through our chipper on-site and turn the pile into clean, usable mulch for your own beds. When you’d rather it all disappear, we load and haul every branch, limb and log off-site for disposal. You choose — and either way your yard is open and clean when we pull out.
- On-site chipping — brush becomes mulch you keep, no trip to the dump
- Full haul-off — we truck it all away for clean disposal, nothing left behind
- Removes the cover that ticks, rodents, carpenter ants and lanternfly egg masses hide in
- Reopens drainage swales, fence lines and the light your lawn and beds need
- Fully insured, ISA Certified crews — and complete cleanup, every time
Signs it’s time to clear the brush
Brush and debris only get worse with time. Most homeowners call us once the property starts to:
- Pile up with storm-dropped limbs, split branches and blown-down debris after high winds
- Fill with branches and logs left over from a project, a pruning or a tree removal
- Disappear under years of brush, briars and vines along fence lines and back corners
- Draw ticks, rodents and carpenter ants nesting in the dead, damp piles
- Block drainage swales, walkways and the sunlight your lawn and beds depend on
- Collect spotted lanternfly egg masses on the rough, exposed wood
One visit clears all of it — and after a storm, brush cleanup pairs naturally with our emergency tree service so your property is safe and clean, not half-finished.
In, cleared, and clean the same visit
Most residential brush and debris cleanups are handled start to finish in a single trip.

Gather & Cut Down
Our crew collects scattered brush, cuts oversized limbs to size, and stages the material for chipping or loading.
Chip or Load Out
We run brush through the chipper for on-site mulch, or load logs and debris into the truck — your choice.
Rake & Clean Up
We rake the area, blow off walks and drives, and haul off whatever you don’t want — leaving the property clean and open.
Chipped brush makes excellent mulch — ask about our mulch supply, or our emergency tree service after a storm. We serve every town in Essex & Morris County.
Storm and brush cleanup built for New Jersey
Northern New Jersey takes a beating from nor’easters, summer thunderstorms and the occasional hurricane remnant, and every one of them leaves Essex and Morris County yards littered with downed limbs and blown-down debris. The wet, wooded lots here grow brush and invasives fast, too — multiflora rose, bittersweet and volunteer saplings can swallow a fence line or a back corner in a couple of seasons. Left alone, that material feeds fire risk, harbors ticks and rodents, and hides the spotted lanternfly egg masses now common across the region.
We clear it the way a certified crew should — fast after a storm, thorough on a cleanup, and always with the trucks and chippers to finish in one visit. From storm response in Short Hills and Montclair to overgrown-lot cleanups in Livingston, West Orange, Morristown and Mendham, T&D leaves your property open, safe and genuinely clean. And when brush cleanup follows storm damage, we can handle the hazardous tree removal and the haul-off with the same crew.
What affects brush removal cost in NJ
We quote brush and debris cleanup on-site, because every property is different. The main factors:
- Volume of material — a few storm limbs versus a full property’s worth of brush
- Type of debris — light brush and branches versus heavy logs and split trunks
- Access — an open front yard versus a tight, fenced or steep back corner
- Chip on-site vs. haul away — keeping the mulch versus trucking it all off-site
- Spread of the mess — one neat pile versus debris scattered across the property
- Storm urgency — standard scheduling versus fast post-storm emergency response
Because T&D owns its trucks and chippers, our brush and cleanup pricing stays fair — and we can bundle it with a removal or storm call on one crew. Meet the team, read our reviews, or book a free estimate.

What Essex & Morris County says about T&D Tree
This service is THE BEST! A huge tree came down on my shed and they came out same-day. The crew worked hard to save the shed and removed the heavy limbs very carefully. Cleaned up nicely — excellent service.
I have been using T&D for years. There is no reason to use anyone else. They are reliable, competent and fairly priced. Thank you Dave.
Best tree services in Essex and Morris counties. Dave came for a prompt estimate, pulled the permit quickly, and his crew did a great job above our expectations — covered the siding and pathway to avoid damage.
I’ve used T&D multiple times and they never disappoint. Professional, friendly, efficient. They leave the area spotless — it’s clear they take pride in their work. Highly recommend!
T&D was wonderful — always on time, always when promised. David showed a vast knowledge of local trees, his team used a crane and wore safety equipment, and they cleaned up completely.
They do exceptional work at extremely reasonable prices. Dave was an absolute pleasure to work with. The tree was a monster and came down seamlessly — they truly go above and beyond.
Dave arrived on time with a reasonable quote, and the crew showed up the very morning he promised. Courteous, efficient and professional — they protected our property and cleaned up well.
Massive 50-ft tree removed at the last minute, leaving no trace on my neighbor’s yard. Amazing work for just 3 guys. Fair pricing and easy to work with.
Responsive, dependable, and his team is neat and very careful. I’ve used T&D in the past and would not do business with any other tree company in Livingston.
Very reasonable pricing. Great service. Crew arrived at the time promised. Yard was left spotless.
