When Is The Best Time To Hire The Best Tree Removal Company In Texas For Transplanting Trees? The best time to move trees varies season by season. Let’s take a quick look at what a transplanting tree looks like in each of the four seasons. Spring Most tree removal services agree that the best time for transplanting is in spring. That’s because the tree is still dormant then. Hence, they won’t have any leaves or fruits which makes the moving process lighter and easier. Summer Summers are one of the worst times to hire tree removal services to transport trees. The tree has all its leaves out by then and the heat depletes its water too quickly. They can go into shock if they lose too much water which can ultimately lead to their death. Fall The pleasant weather of early fall can work perfectly well for tree removal services. But make sure you don’t wait until late fall or winter to move your tree. You have to give the tree some time to adjust before the temperature drops to freezing. Winter It is best to avoid transplanting tree in winter. The ground remains frozen and it’s simply too cold for a tree moving service. How To Successfully Move And Transplant Trees? Picking the right time of the year is not enough for successful transplanting. You must know how to successfully move your tree too. Here is how you can do it – Prune Tree Roots If possible, start the process a few months before the actual moving by pruning the roots. This will help the tree to grow new feeder roots that can better absorb water and nutrients.  Choose A Great Location  The relocation process won’t ever be a success if you don’t move it to a good location. So, choose the place wisely before the process. Make sure the tree has an ample amount of space. Avoid planting it anywhere where it will get too little or too much water.   Relocate Sturdy Species Some species of tree do better with relocation than others. For optimal results, opt for tree removal services for only those tree that is strong enough to survive.   Inspect The Roots You have to get an idea of the tree’s root system before the transplantation process. For this, dig a little around the tree to understand its roots. Accordingly, dig the hole that you’ll move the tree into. Make sure the hole is twice as wide as the ball of roots but not twice as deep.  Water The Soil Water the soil a day before you move the tree.  Relocate Now, dig the roots of the tree with the help of a burlap.
