Canton Township’s Choice for Top Tree Care
Southeastern Michigan has no shortage of arboreal excellence: swamp white oak, hackberry, honeylocust, and disease-resistant elm. And in one of Wayne County’s largest, Canton Township has no shortage of tree service needs. Canton Township’s had a local tree preservation and street tree ordinance on the books since 1969, so working with trees here isn’t casual; you need a tree service company in Canton Township, MI, that works within these rules and delivers every time.
That’s where Ruben’s Tree Service’s skilled team comes in to help. We’ve quickly become a staple in Canton Township, and we’re showing no signs of stopping. We’re the tree experts the area calls first!

Tree Removal
Sometimes, despite a homeowner’s best efforts, a tree needs to be removed. Ruben’s Tree Service is here for all tree removal needs in Canton Township, MI, for all diseased, storm-damaged, and even unwanted trees. Our crew gets in there, assesses the roots, the lean, and how close it is to other structures and utilities. We’re also well-versed in Canton Township’s tree ordinances, and we take that extremely seriously. In short, we do things right and by the book.
Tree Trimming & Pruning
Tree trimming and pruning are some of our most common jobs in Southeastern Michigan. Tree trimming in Canton Township is all about making sure your trees are looking good and growing well. Ruben’s Tree Service crewmembers trim branches, leaves, and make sure that any problem areas won’t eventually cause headaches later on.
With tree pruning in Canton Township, it’s more about the long-term health of your trees. Clearance pruning to keep limbs off rooflines, making sure newer trees (sweetgum, sycamore, tuliptree especially), grow well, and more.
Tree Bracing & Cabling
Bracing and cabling in Canton Township, MI, uses cable and rod systems to support weak unions or even a split trunk, especially on maples, which are prone to include bark. It’s a solid way to save those larger, more established trees rather than completely removing them after a particularly heavy storm. It’ll also tend to reduce limb-failure risks later on, especially given our more recent exposure to tornadoes and high winds. Ruben’s Tree Service can help you cable and brace any tree on your property that can be saved and supported.
Stump Grinding
Stumps (especially after a tree removal) are eyesores, tripping hazards and, unfortunately, a haven for various pests that’ll set up shop and eventually start affecting your whole yard and even your home. The Ruben’s Tree crew grinds stumps a little under a foot or so under the soil; that way the roots decay on their own over a period of time. Plus, you end up with sawdust which we can leave behind for your use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Canton Township require a permit to remove a tree?
Yes, and Canton Township’s very on top of trees and what red tape you need to wade through. It has a Forest Preservation and Tree Clearing Ordinance, but it really depends on your property if you need a permit or not.
If it’s in your yard, the chances of needing a permit aren’t high. But if your tree’s in the public right-of-way, you’ll need a permit for sure. Ruben’s Tree Service will help you figure it out and pull the permits for you.
What’s the difference between stump grinding and stump removal?
Stump grinding is a great way to nix a problem stump that’s been lingering in your yard too long. We grind down the stump just below the soil level (about 4 to 12 inches below). It’s a cost-effective way to take care of stump problems for the time being. Stump removal takes out the stump completely, roots and all.
