Call [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243) at any hour; if someone is hurt call 911 first, and if a power line is involved stay away and call NV Energy before you call us. Carson City is home. The crane, the 75-foot boom truck, the chipper and the loaders that clear a tree off a roof are parked here, not an hour up the highway. That is the one thing that makes an emergency call in Carson City different from the same call anywhere else we work. ## At a glance - Yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East, about 8 minutes from central Carson City - 24-hour emergency line: [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243) - About 49% of Carson City homes were built before 1980 - Voted First Place, Best Tree Service, Nevada Appeal Best of Carson City, 2018 through 2025 ## Who do you call first when a tree falls in Carson City? The order matters more than the speed. An injury or a person trapped is a 911 call. A tree or limb touching a wire, or a wire on the ground, belongs to NV Energy: keep everyone well back and report it to them. Once people are out of harm's way, call our office at [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243). The same number rings day and night. Tell us what the tree is resting on, whether the driveway or the street is blocked, and whether anyone still needs to get in or out. Those three answers decide which machines leave the yard. ## Why does the age of the neighborhood matter? About 49% of Carson City's homes were built before 1980, and the median home dates from 1981 (American Community Survey 2020-2024). A tree planted when one of those houses was new has had 45 years or more to grow over the roof, the fence and the service drop. When it fails, it usually lands on something. That is why a certified arborist looks at the tree before anyone cuts. A trunk lying on a roof is carrying load in ways that are hard to read from the ground. With a crane, the crew can lift the weight off in sections instead of dragging it across the shingles. Our [crane-assisted removal](https://battleborntreeservice.com/tree-services/crane-assisted-tree-removal/) page explains how that works. ## What weather breaks trees here? The Carson City weather station averages 14.0 inches of snowfall a year (NOAA 1991-2020 normals). The trouble is rarely the total. It is one wet storm that loads branches still carrying leaves, or a night of downslope wind off the Carson Range. FEMA's National Risk Index rates winter weather risk in Carson City as Relatively High. One Google reviewer, writing about a job the review does not place in any town, said: "Came out to trim trees after big snowstorm, did excellent job." (Will B., Google review). Our guides on [heavy wet snow and broken limbs](https://battleborntreeservice.com/guides/heavy-snow-broken-limbs/) and [downslope wind](https://battleborntreeservice.com/guides/washoe-zephyr-wind-tree-prep/) cover what to look for the morning after. ## What happens to the mess? Storm clean-up includes collecting and disposing of the debris. Brush goes through the chipper, logs are loaded and hauled, and the yard is raked out. If the stump has to go too, that is usually a second visit once the urgent work is done. Ask about [stump grinding](https://battleborntreeservice.com/tree-services/stump-grinding/) when the arborist writes up the job. ## After a big storm, who is first in line? Following severe storms our priority is existing clients, and we are equipped to help anyone in need. Because the yard is in town, a Carson City call does not start with a long highway drive. We still do not promise an arrival time on a storm night. Roads, wires and the number of trees down all change the order of work. ### Sources - [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 five-year estimates, Carson City, Nevada](https://data.census.gov/) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020, Carson City station](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/land-based-station/us-climate-normals) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [FEMA National Risk Index, county ratings for winter weather and strong wind (December 2025 release)](https://www.fema.gov/flood-maps/products-tools/national-risk-index) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [Carson City Public Works: Street Maintenance](https://www.carsoncity.gov/government/departments-g-z/public-works/divisions/street-maintenance) (read October 1, 2026) - **Drive from our yard:** about 8 min 4.5 miles - **Elevation:** 4,680 ft USGS - **USDA hardiness zone:** 7a 2023 map - **Homes built before 1980:** 49% median year built 1981 Sources: drive time from our yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East, free-flow, OSRM / Census Geocoder; elevation, USGS 3DEP; hardiness zone, USDA 2023 map; housing figures, U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimates; wildfire risk, USDA Forest Service Wildfire Risk to Communities (April 2026 data).
