Tree Service in Duluth, GA
PAC-TREE is a family-owned small business providing tree removal and pruning for homes and businesses across Duluth and the rest of Gwinnett County. Founded in 2019, fully licensed and insured, we bring safe work, careful planning, and cleanup of the agreed-upon debris to every job.
Duluth Keeps Residential Removal Straightforward
One thing that sets Duluth apart from many nearby cities: the City of Duluth does not require a permit to remove trees at single-family residential properties. For an ordinary yard tree on a residential lot, you are generally clear to move forward without a city application.
That makes routine removals simpler here than in a lot of North Fulton communities, but there are still exceptions worth knowing before you schedule. We check the rules for your specific property first so nothing gets missed.
Do You Need Approval to Remove a Tree in Duluth?
Usually not for a single-family home, but sometimes yes. The city does not require a permit for routine residential tree removals, but written approval is required for non-single-family and commercial properties, and buffers and development sites carry their own rules.

Office, commercial, industrial, and apartment properties are generally maintained under an approved landscape plan, so removing a tree there needs prior written approval from the city’s Community Development Department. Trees in required buffers must be replanted, and subdivision development carries minimum tree-density requirements. The city also urges owners to contact its Planning Division before removing trees so buffers and right-of-ways can be checked. We handle that coordination when your property calls for it.
Our Services
We keep the full details of each service in one place so they stay accurate. Here is a quick overview of what we provide for local properties, with links to learn more.
Tree Removal
On the tighter lots common in older neighborhoods here, we section large trees down in controlled pieces and plan the work around homes, fences, and utility lines nearby. Full details are on our removal page.
Tree Trimming and Pruning
We prune to keep mature trees strong and balanced through Georgia’s storm seasons, removing deadwood and correcting weak structure. See our trimming and pruning page for how we approach the work.
Emergency Tree Service
When a storm brings a tree or limb down, we stay available around the clock for urgent situations. Learn how we respond on our emergency page.

Contact PAC-TREE to discuss your property, tree-service needs, or an upcoming removal or pruning project.
