Licensed Tree Experts in Bridgewater, NJ

Bridgewater’s tree ordinance (Article XXXVIA) requires a permit from the Township Engineer before removing any tree 8 inches DBH or larger. Fines reach $1,000 per tree for violations — each tree counts as a separate offense. Protected species include dogwoods over 4 inches DBH and any tree 100+ years old.

Wayne’s Tree Service handles the full permit process: species identification, diameter documentation, application submission to the Township Engineer (908-725-6300 ext. 5090), and post-removal inspection coordination. Our NJTC #806860 and LTCO #565 licenses satisfy the township’s professional certification requirements.

Our Residential and Commercial Tree Services in Bridgewater, NJ

Tree Trimming & Pruning

I have used Wayne's tree service a couple of separate times over the years and have been extremely satisfied with their work each time. Dylan is easy to work with and responds to questions promptly. They were quick, efficient and thorough with all the tree removals. I highly recommend them!

Wayne’s tree service did a phenomenal job and the price was very reasonable. I would tell anyone who needs tree service that this is the business that you should use. Very professional, and very reasonable. I included before and after pictures.

Contacted Wayne's Tree Service to remove a small tree in my front yard along with with some other potential larger removals. They were responsive as to requests, scheduling and removal where others did not even respond or show up. When they did the removal they showed up with a large crew, took care of it very quickly and cleaned up well. I would clearly recommend Wayne's and will use them again for future needs.
