When is the best time of year for palm tree trimming in Las Vegas?

In the Las Vegas valley, the ideal time for palm tree trimming is late spring or early summer (typically May and June), once the trees have finished flowering. Trimming during this window allows us to remove the seed pods before they drop, preventing messy litter in your pool or yard and reducing the attraction of pests like desert rodents and pigeons. Regular annual trimming is essential for fire safety in Southern Nevada, as dead “skirts” of palm fronds are highly flammable in our extreme summer heat.
 

Do I need a permit for palm tree removal in Clark County?

While most residential palm tree removals do not require a specific city permit, certain HOAs in Summerlin, Henderson, and Green Valley have strict “tree-for-tree” replacement policies. Additionally, if the palm tree is encroaching on power lines or public utility easements, specialized equipment and coordination with local authorities are required. As a licensed NV C-10 contractor, Chicago Landscape handles the technical assessment to ensure your removal is compliant with local safety codes and neighborhood-specific guidelines.
 

Why is professional palm trimming better than a “handyman” service?

Palm trees in Las Vegas—particularly California Fan Palms and Date Palms—can reach heights of 40+ feet, making them a high-risk liability. Professional trimming involves more than just aesthetics; it includes a health assessment for Ganoderma or Fusarium wilt, diseases common in the valley. Unlike unlicensed labor, our professional crew uses specialized safety harnesses and sanitized equipment to prevent the spread of tree diseases between properties, ensuring your landscape remains healthy and your property is protected from liability.
