Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is AAA Trees' survivability rate?
A: AAA Trees On The Move has a proven track record of 98% survivability. This is obtained through proper rootball sizing, the appropriate tree transplanting technique and equipment, and the proper pre- and post- transplant care.
Q: What preparation activities should be considered prior to tree transplant?
A: For the best results, a combination of canopy and root pruning, natural bio-fertilization treatments and hydration are recommended as part of the pre-transplant care. Ideally, treatment should commence three to seven months prior to tree transplant; however, as little as two weeks can make a difference. Following these steps leads to our superior success rate.
Q: What is the cost of tree transplanting?
A: Price is dependent on many factors which include, but are not limited to, tree size, soil conditions, site access, and transplant distance. Therefore, it is best to contact us to request a customized price estimate for your specific application.
While pricing may vary between companies, it should be noted that there is a direct correlation between the size of the root ball, the techniques used, and the tree's chance of survival.
Q: Is it true that tree transplanting can only be successful while the tree is in a dormant state?
A: No. We have consistently demonstrated successful tree transplanting year-round. However, during certain times such as late summer, rigorous attention to pre- and post-transplant care is essential.
Q: What conditions might make a tree transplant not feasible?
A: The tree location and destination must be an area large enough to facilitate an adequately sized rootball. Subsurface obstructions, such as underground utilities, are also of concern in determining feasibility. Overhead clearance is also critical. Overhead obstructions, such as utility lines or nearby tree canopies should be considered.
Q: Why does the rootball seem shallow?
A: The majority of the root system responsible for feeding and watering the tree resides within the first 3-feet of soil.
