  1. DO YOU KNOW HOW AND WHEN TO MOVE A TREE? Trees are removed for various reasons that can range from convenience to make the path clears. Sometimes, they are removes as they are planted near to the house or they are overgrown and take a lot of space. At times, they block the pathways or renovation is required at the house. Even the tree is removed, when something else is planned to be put on the spot instead of the tree. Or maybe the tree is dead and does not bear either leaves or flowers and does not look good, therefore, it requires Ottawa tree removal services.

  2. How the tree is removed by the Ottawa tree removal company? To remove the there are certain things that you must follow as are mentioned herewith: 1. The Tools and Equipment You will require certain tools and equipment such as a sharp shovel, a tarp, a watering hose and mulch. Apart from these, there are other things that can be of help to you that depends on the size of the tree and its stump. 2. Timing of the Removal The best time to remove the trees is the early spring season or the fall. However, avoid removing the tree in the summer this is because the heat will stress the plant more. In case you are not sure, when is the best time to remove the tree, then you can contact the Ottawa Tree Pruning company who can give you the necessary information. 3. Location for Moving Once you have decided the time to remove the tree, the next step is to move it to a new location where it will be placed. The new location should have proper sun, shade, soil conditions, water requirements etc. that are necessary for the growth of the tree. Also, arrange such a place that is away from the wall, entry points, pathways etc. so your way is not obstructed.

  3. 4. Digging the Hole for Placing the Removed Tree A new hole should be dug in the ground that is twice the size of the roos of the trees or the rootball. You can do this using the tools such as a shovel to remove the soil and pile up the soil on the side of the hole. 5. Dig Up to Remove the Tree As you have found a new place and hole for placing the tree, it is time to remove the tree from the existing place. This process requires a lot of careful planning and handling to reduce any harm that may be caused to the roots or the stump. You need to place a tarp or the tarpaulin sheet near the tree. Begin digging the tree about 3 feet away from the trunk base while finding out how huge is the rootball or the presence of roots beneath the tree. The bigger trees require more care and effort as you need to prevent any harm to the tree and the roots. However, some roots need to be cut down in the process from the sides of the rootball. Now, once you can see the entire rootball, and then begin sliding the shovel under it so that the roots can be loosened a bit. And then firmly loosen the roots from the soil and lift it carefully to be placed on the tarp. This is a major task as lifting the tree sometimes requires machines that are available with the Ottawa Tree Service company. 6. Planting the Removed Tree The tarp with the tree is taken to the other location where the hole is dug. The tree is gently slid into the new hole. Thereafter, the loose soil that is placed on the side needs to be put back in the hole using the shovel. The root ball is properly packed from all sides with the soil. Mound up the soil in order to create a round rim about a few inches away from the tree that can catch the water. Then place a layer of mulch or the dried leaves in the rim area.

  4. 7. Monitoring the Tree and its Maintenance Keep monitoring the tree after placing it in the new hole. Provide the water regularly as desired. The roots will take some time to grow back to the new location. However, water is essential regularly to keep the soil moistened. In certain cases, the tree can take around a year to fully recover after moving. These are the simple steps that can help you to move a tree that is small in size.
