Space to Work, Trees to Match
Tree Removal in Wrightsboro usually happens on more open ground than in Wilmington's inner suburbs. This census place spreads about 5,526 people over roughly 11.13 square miles of land, a density of about 496 people per square mile in 2020. Lots are larger, some areas are still rural, and trees have had room to grow wide crowns. That room is good news when a tree has to come down: we can often fell it in one piece instead of dismantling it limb by limb.
Value-minded owners
Census QuickFacts lists a 78.0% owner-occupied rate in Wrightsboro and a median owner-occupied value of $255,700 for 2020-2024, lower than many coastal neighborhoods in the county. Most owners here want practical work at a fair price. We itemize estimates so you can see each tree, the stump grinding and the hauling separately, and choose what fits your budget. Keeping the firewood or the chips can lower the cost.
A place with plant history
Tinga Nursery, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000, is in Wrightsboro. The Tinga family's nursery dates to 1955 and grew from horticulturist Eelco Tinga's earlier flower and vegetable business in the Castle Hayne area. That history fits the ground here: it has long been used for growing things, and older homesites often have big shade trees and pines planted or spared generations ago.
What we handle
- Felling large trees in open yards when it's safe to do so
- Taking down dead pines before they fall on outbuildings or fences
- Removing storm-damaged trees and clearing driveways
- Raising low limbs over driveways for trucks and RVs
- Grinding stumps across a whole property at once
Rules and utilities
Wrightsboro is unincorporated New Hanover County, so the county's tree rules apply, including the ban on removing live oaks over 36 inches in diameter except where a tree endangers public safety or disrupts public services. Duke Energy serves the county. If a tree is near the service wire to your house, ask Duke to disconnect it before the work; Duke does this at no cost.
Doing several trees at once
On larger lots, it often makes sense to handle more than one tree in a single visit. Setting up equipment once costs less than coming back three times, and a crew can fell an open-ground tree, take down a dead pine near the shed and grind several stumps in the same day. We list each tree on its own line, so you can approve the ones you want now and leave the rest for later.
Driveways and access
Many Wrightsboro properties have long or unpaved driveways. Let us know about low branches, soft spots, culverts and gates when you call, so we bring a truck and chipper that fit. If limbs over the drive are blocking trucks or RVs, raising them can be part of the same job.

Wrightsboro Questions
Is it cheaper to remove a tree if there's open space around it?
Usually. Felling a tree into open ground is faster than taking it down in sections. We will tell you which method your tree allows and price it that way.
Can I keep the wood?
Yes. We can cut it into rounds and stack it, and leaving the wood lowers the hauling part of the price.
Do you remove trees from fence lines and old pasture?
Yes. Field-edge and fence-line trees are common on Wrightsboro properties. Tell us about gates and soft ground so we bring the right equipment.
Is it cheaper to do several trees in one visit?
Usually. Equipment only gets set up once, and the crew can move from tree to tree. Each tree is still priced separately on the estimate.
Can you take down a dead pine near my shed without hitting it?
Yes. Depending on the space, we either fell the tree in a direction away from the shed or take it down in pieces. Dead pines can be brittle, so we look at how sound the wood is before deciding which method is safe.
