Battle Born Tree Service prunes for clearance and for the health of the tree at the same visit, about 9 minutes from our yard without traffic. ZIP 89706 has the most varied housing in Carson City. About 49% of its homes are single-family detached houses, about 23% are mobile or manufactured homes, and the rest are apartments and attached units. Each kind puts trees close to something different. ## At a glance - About 23% of housing in ZIP 89706 is mobile or manufactured homes - Clearance pruning over roofs, carports, drives and walkways - About 40% of homes are rented: one call covers a whole property - About 4.4 miles from the Battle Born yard ## What is clearance pruning? It is pruning with a measured goal: so much open space between the tree and the thing it is crowding. The arborist and the owner agree on that space, and the cuts are made back to a branch union so the tree closes the wound instead of sprouting a broom of shoots. It is not shearing a flat face onto the tree with whatever reaches. A limb cut in the wrong place cannot be put back, which is why a certified arborist assesses every job before work begins. - Roofs and carports: limbs lifted off and back, so they stop scraping in wind and loading up with snow over the structure. - Driveways and private roads: the crown raised so trucks, trailers and delivery vans pass under. - Walkways and mailboxes: low branches removed at eye level. - Fences and sheds: branches that are pushing or rubbing taken back. ## Why do small lots need a careful hand? On a manufactured-home lot the tree, the home, the carport and the neighbor's home can all sit within one crown's width. There is no open lawn to drop a branch into. Our climbers lower pieces on ropes, or the 75-foot boom truck reaches in from the road, and the brush goes straight to the chipper. The Carson City weather station, about 5 miles away, averages 14 inches of snowfall a year (NOAA 1991 to 2020 normals). Snow here is often wet. A long limb lying over a roof carries that weight directly above the structure, so shortening it before winter is worth more than cleaning up after. ## What about branches near the power line? Do not prune them yourself, and do not let a ladder or pole saw near them. If a branch is touching or pulling on a line, stay away and call NV Energy. For branches that are only growing toward the house connection, ask us about [utility and structure clearance](https://battleborntreeservice.com/tree-services/utility-structure-clearance/) and we will tell you what we can do and what belongs to the utility. ## Do you prune for landlords and community managers? Yes. About 40% of occupied homes in this ZIP are rentals, so the person who calls is often a manager with a list. Walk the property with the arborist once and the estimate will list each tree and what it needs, in plain terms. See [tree service for HOAs and property managers](https://battleborntreeservice.com/who-we-serve/hoas-and-property-managers/). Older parts of the ZIP have their share of mature trees too. About 48% of homes here were built before 1980, and for those the work looks more like [pruning on the west side](https://battleborntreeservice.com/service-areas/west-carson-city/tree-trimming/). ### Sources - [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 five-year estimates, ZIP Code Tabulation Area 89706](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) - [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 9 min 4.4 miles - **Elevation:** 4,772 ft USGS - **USDA hardiness zone:** 7b 2023 map - **Homes built before 1980:** 48% 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).

The arborist checks the road width and where the truck can set up during the free estimate. Where it cannot fit, a climber does the work. ### Who pays for pruning, the tenant or the owner? That is between you and your lease or park rules. We need permission from whoever is responsible for the tree. ### Will you haul the branches away? Yes. Branches are chipped and hauled, and the site is cleaned before the crew leaves.
