What Makes Us Different?

We’re not just tree workers — we’re licensed tree experts, educators, and lifelong learners. Here’s what sets Yoos Tree Service apart:

We’re often called in after the other guys couldn’t finish the job. Our crew shows up with the right equipments, the right training, and the right attitude.

Our Roots Are Local

We’re based in Egg Harbor Township, NJ — and we know the trees, soil, neighborhoods, and seasonal challenges of South Jersey like the back of our hand. Whether it’s the sandy soils near the coast, high winds during storm season, or preserving aging oaks in older neighborhoods, we tailor our care to the unique conditions of your property.

We serve:

  • Residential homeowners

  • Commercial property managers

  • HOAs and private developments

  • Municipal parks and public spaces

You’ve probably seen our trucks in your neighborhood — and maybe your neighbor has already recommended us.

 Our Promise

We stand by our work. If you’re ever unsatisfied, we return and make it right — no excuses.

That’s the difference between a company chasing invoices and a company earning relationships. For Yoos Tree Service, customer care isn’t a checkbox — it’s our legacy.
