Expert Tree Services in California
Preserving Mature Trees with Care and Precision
Nearly Two Decades of Experience in Tree Relocation
Since 2008, Mighty Tree Movers has been dedicated to one mission: saving and relocating trees. What started as a small, locally owned business in Gilroy has grown into one of California’s most trusted names in tree relocation and salvage. With state-of-the-art equipment and a certified arborist overseeing every move, we make it possible to preserve mature trees and keep California’s landscapes thriving.
Safe and Efficient Tree Moving
Tree relocation is the foundation of our business and represents over 95% of the work we do. Moving a mature tree is a complex process that requires specialized equipment, precise technique, and a commitment to the tree’s long-term health. Our team uses truck-mounted tree spades, cranes, and boxing methods to handle even the largest trees with care. Before relocation, we assess the site, the soil, and the tree’s root system to determine the best method of transport. During the move, we take steps to minimize stress on the tree and preserve its structure.
Once replanted, we provide aftercare recommendations to help make sure the tree thrives in its new environment. From private estates to commercial developments, our relocation services make it possible to preserve beloved trees while completing your project successfully.

Professional Tree Care and Guidance
Every successful tree relocation starts with expert knowledge, and that’s where our certified arborists come in. We provide detailed assessments of tree health, soil conditions, and environmental factors to determine the best plan for relocation or planting. Our arborists guide clients through each step of the process, from preparing a tree for transport to developing a care plan after replanting. Beyond relocation, we assist with preservation planning, risk assessments, and long-term maintenance strategies.
Our goal is to make sure that every tree we work with has the greatest possible chance of success in its new location. Whether you’re a homeowner looking to preserve a treasured tree or a large organization managing a landscape project, our arborist expertise provides the confidence and care you need.

Secure, In-Ground Tree Care
In many projects, construction schedules or seasonal limitations make immediate replanting impossible. That’s why we offer offsite tree storage at our seven-acre farm in Gilroy, California. Unlike container storage, our trees are stored in-ground, where they are monitored, watered, and cared for as though they were already in their final location. This method reduces stress on the tree and promotes healthier growth while waiting for reinstallation.
During storage, our team of horticultural experts provides ongoing care and maintenance to support root stability and overall vitality. When the time comes, we transport the tree back to its permanent site and replant it with the same precision and care as our relocation projects. Tree storage offers peace of mind and a sustainable solution for projects that require flexibility without sacrificing tree health.

Saving Trees Destined for Removal
One of the most rewarding parts of our work is giving trees a second chance through our salvage and rescue services. Too often, mature trees are cut down during construction or redevelopment projects, even when they’re healthy and thriving. Instead of letting them go to waste, we purchase and carefully remove these trees before they’re lost. Once rescued, they are transported to our farm, where they are replanted, cared for, and later made available for resale.
This process not only prevents unnecessary loss but also provides clients with access to beautiful, mature trees for new landscapes. Tree salvage and rescue is a key part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, allowing us to save thousands of trees while helping property owners create greener, healthier spaces.
