Immediate action needs to be taken to reduce the risk of further damage to people and property. If the fallen tree has caused a life threatening situation and you’re unsure if the house is safe to be in, or if there are downed wires, call 911 or the local authorities.
If the situation is not life threatening, we still recommend staying a safe distance from the tree, as we are dealing with an unstable object that can still move based on environmental factors.
What is a safe distance? Every hazardous tree has a different safe distance to be away from it. It is also just not the tree you need to be aware of and keep a safe distance from, but it could have broken branches, could have uprooted other trees, loosened wires or telephone poles that could fall, or the house or garage could be ready to collapse.
Call people who can properly address the immediate safety concerns first.
