Veterans Day Special – Free Tree Care for Those Who Served
Beyond our year-round discount program, Andrew's Tree Care takes our commitment to veterans one step further with our annual Veterans Day Free Service Initiative.
Each year on Veterans Day, we provide completely free tree care services to qualifying veterans in our Clearwater service area. This isn't a discounted rate or a partial credit—it's genuinely free professional tree service as our way of saying thank you to those who protected our community and country.
How Our Veterans Day Program Works
Qualifying for Free Veterans Day Service
We offer free tree care to veterans on a first-come, first-served basis each Veterans Day. Tree services are provided to veterans who:
- Are honorably discharged or currently serving
- Have a tree care need that can be completed in a standard service day
- Are located within our primary service areas in Pinellas, Pasco, or Hillsborough counties
Scheduling Your Free Service
Due to high demand for our Veterans Day initiative, we encourage veterans to contact us in advance, typically by early November, to schedule their free service. While we wish we could help every veteran who reaches out, we commit to serving as many as our schedule and resources allow on Veterans Day. Our team handles each job with the same attention to detail and quality work we bring to every project.
What's Included in the Free Service
Our Veterans Day free tree service includes:
- Professional assessment of your tree care needs
- Complete service (trimming, removal, or grinding, depending on the scope of work)
- Full cleanup and debris removal to protect your landscape
- The same quality, safety standards, and skilled cutting techniques we bring to every job
- Licensed and insured service for your peace of mind
Community Impact
Since launching this initiative, we've had the privilege of serving dozens of local veterans in the Tampa Bay area, helping them maintain safe, beautiful properties while honoring their service to our nation. The relationships we've built and the stories we've heard from veterans in our community have been among the most rewarding aspects of our business. Each Veterans Day, we get to give back to those who gave so much, providing tree removal services, trimming, and stump grinding at no cost to deserving veterans.
Why Andrew's Tree Care Supports Our Military Community
Our commitment to veterans isn't just about exclusive discounts, it's about shared values and genuine appreciation for those who've served. As a family-owned tree service company, we understand that trust, reliability, and honest work are the foundation of any great relationship with our clients.
Family Values Meet Military Values
As a family-owned and operated company founded by Kelly and Andrew Poppell, we understand the importance of trust, reliability, and integrity, the same values that define military service. Kelly, our president, transitioned from a 28-year nursing career to help build Andrew's Tree Care into a business that prioritizes people over profits and relationships over transactions.
Just as military service requires dedication, discipline, and a commitment to excellence, we approach every tree care project with the same mindset. We show up when we say we will, we do the work right the first time, and we don't consider the job done until our customers are completely satisfied. Our team brings skilled expertise and experience to every tree service, from routine trimming to complex tree removal projects.
Beyond Discounts: Priority Service and Exceptional Communication
While our 10% discount and free Veterans Day service are tangible ways we support veterans, our commitment goes deeper. We provide the best service experience in the Tampa Bay area through:
Priority Scheduling: We make every effort to accommodate veteran clients' scheduling needs, understanding that many veterans have specific requirements or limitations. Whether you need same-day emergency storm damage service or scheduled tree trimming, our team works to meet your timeline.
Clear, Consistent Communication: Kelly personally handles all customer communications, ensuring that veteran clients receive prompt, professional, and courteous service from first contact through project completion. No automated responses, no runarounds, just honest, direct information about your tree service needs.
Transparency and Trust: We provide detailed estimates, explain our process clearly, and never pressure clients into tree services they don't need. Veterans have earned the right to straight answers and honest recommendations about tree removal, trimming, stump grinding, or any other service.
Satisfaction Guarantee: We don't collect payment until the work is complete and you're satisfied with the results. This payment-upon-completion policy reflects our confidence in our skilled team and our respect for your investment in your property.
Licensed, Insured, and Ready to Serve
Unlike some tree service providers in the area, Andrew's Tree Care is fully licensed and insured with $1 million per occurrence and $2 million general aggregate coverage, including workers' compensation insurance. This means when our team arrives at your property to handle tree removal, storm damage cleanup, or any other job, you're protected from liability.
Our licensed status and insurance coverage give veterans the peace of mind they deserve when choosing a tree service company. You can trust that we follow all safety regulations, protect your property during every job, and handle even the most challenging tree removal projects safely and professionally.
Community Connection Through Service
Our support for veterans extends beyond individual discounts. We actively participate in veteran community events, support local veteran organizations, and seek opportunities to give back to those who've given so much. Serving the Tampa, Clearwater, and surrounding Florida communities, we're proud to be part of a neighbourhood that values military service.
We also offer exclusive discounts to other community groups, including a 15% discount for members of the Dunedin Moms group, because we believe that supporting our local community, including the families of service members, strengthens all of us. Our community involvement includes local charity work, sponsorships, and educational programs about tree care, storm preparation, and landscape design.
Comprehensive Tree Services for Veterans
Your 10% veteran discount applies to our complete range of professional tree services throughout Clearwater, Tampa, and surrounding areas in Pinellas, Pasco, and Hillsborough counties. Our experienced team provides skilled tree care for both residential and commercial properties, handling jobs of all sizes with the best equipment and techniques available.
Tree Trimming and Pruning Services
Proper tree trimming and pruning isn't just about aesthetics, it's about tree health, property safety, and storm preparation. Our veteran clients receive expert tree trimming services that:
- Remove dead, diseased, or hazardous branches to keep trees healthy
- Improve tree structure and promote healthy growth
- Enhance property appearance and curb appeal through strategic landscape design
- Reduce storm damage risk during Florida's hurricane season
- Prevent branches from interfering with power lines, roofs, or structures
- Provide skilled cutting techniques that protect tree health
- Protect your landscape and surrounding vegetation during the work
We follow proper arboricultural techniques recommended by certified arborist standards to ensure your trees remain healthy and beautiful for years to come. Our team always cleans up thoroughly, leaving your property looking better than we found it. Whether you need routine maintenance on a few trees or extensive trimming work across a large commercial property, we handle every job with the same attention to detail.
Complete Tree Removal Services
Sometimes, tree removal is the safest and most practical option for your property. Whether you're dealing with a diseased tree, storm damage, construction requirements, or a tree that's simply too close to your home, we handle tree removal jobs of all sizes, from small ornamental trees to massive oaks that require specialized equipment and skilled cutting.
Our tree removal services include:
- Safe tree removal using professional equipment and experienced techniques
- Protection of your lawn, landscape, and structures during removal
- Complete debris removal and site cleanup
- Stump grinding services (if requested)
- Storm damage assessment and emergency tree removal available 24/7
- Large tree removal requiring cranes, bucket trucks, or specialized equipment

We're fully licensed and insured with $1 million per occurrence and $2 million general aggregate coverage, including workers' compensation insurance, so you never have to worry about liability during tree removal projects. Our team has the experience to handle even the most challenging tree removal jobs safely, protecting your property and neighbourhood throughout the process.
Palm Tree Trimming and Care
Florida's iconic palm trees require specialized care, and improper trimming can actually harm the tree or spread disease. We specialize in proper, legal palm tree trimming techniques that follow Florida regulations and best practices. Our palm tree services include:
- Remove only dead or dying fronds (never over-pruning, which is illegal in some areas)
- Prevent disease transmission through proper tool sanitation
- Follow Florida regulations for palm tree care and landscape maintenance
- Maintain the tree's health and natural beauty
- Protect against pest infestations and storm damage
- Provide skilled cutting that promotes healthy palm growth
Many palm tree problems we see in the Tampa Bay area result from improper trimming by inexperienced providers. Our approach prioritizes your palm tree's long-term health while maintaining the aesthetic appeal that makes palms such a valued part of Florida landscapes and neighbourhood character.
Stump Grinding and Removal
Left-behind stumps are more than eyesores—they're trip hazards, pest attractors, and obstacles for lawn care and landscape design. Our stump grinding services completely remove the visible stump and root system, allowing you to:
- Reclaim usable yard space for landscape improvements or new design
- Eliminate trip hazards and safety concerns on your property
- Prevent pest infestations (termites, carpenter ants, etc.)
- Improve property appearance and curb appeal
- Prepare the area for new landscaping, construction, or lawn restoration
- Remove obstacles that interfere with mowing and yard maintenance
We grind stumps below ground level and remove all debris, leaving you with a clean, level surface ready for grass, landscape plantings, or whatever project you have planned for your property.
Emergency Storm Damage Cleanup Services
Florida weather can be unpredictable and destructive, especially during hurricane season. When storms strike and trees threaten your home, vehicle, or safety, we provide 24/7 emergency tree services to address urgent situations throughout the Tampa Bay area.
Our emergency storm damage services include:
- Immediate response to dangerous tree situations
- Safe removal of fallen or partially fallen trees
- Emergency trimming of damaged limbs threatening structures
- Storm debris cleanup and property protection
- Insurance documentation assistance for damage claims
- Available day or night, seven days a week
- Skilled team ready to handle large-scale storm damage
- Equipment to safely remove trees from homes, vehicles, or power lines
Even during emergencies, veteran clients receive the same 10% discount on all emergency tree services. When you're dealing with storm damage, the last thing you should worry about is excessive costs from emergency tree work. Our team responds quickly to protect your property and get your home or business back to normal after severe weather.
How to Redeem Your Military Discount
We've made the process of claiming your veteran discount as simple and respectful as possible. Here's exactly how it works to get the best tree service in Clearwater and Tampa at an exclusive discount:
Step 1: Contact Us Today for Your Free Estimate
Call us at (727) 500-2278 to request your free tree care estimate. When you reach out, simply mention that you're a veteran or active military member.
Kelly, our president, personally handles all customer communications, so you'll speak with a real person who genuinely appreciates your service—not an automated system or call center. We provide information about our tree services, answer your questions, and schedule a convenient time to visit your property for an assessment.
Step 2: Provide Proof of Service
When we arrive for your on-site estimate, just show us one of the following:
- Military ID (active or retired)
- VA card
- DD Form 214 (discharge papers)
- Other valid proof of military service
We'll make a quick note for our records, and your 10% discount will automatically be applied to your estimate. Our team will assess your tree service needs, whether it's tree removal, trimming, stump grinding, storm damage cleanup, or other tree care.
Step 3: Review Your Discounted Estimate
We'll assess your property, explain our recommended approach, and provide a detailed estimate with your 10% veteran discount already applied. Our honest pricing includes all aspects of the job—tree service work, equipment, cleanup, and debris removal. There's no pressure, no obligation—just honest recommendations and transparent pricing that gives you a great deal on quality tree care.
Step 4: Schedule Your Tree Service
If you decide to move forward, we'll work with your schedule to find a convenient service date. While we're currently booking about two weeks out due to high demand for our tree services, we make every effort to accommodate veteran clients' timing needs when possible. For emergency storm damage or urgent safety concerns, we're available 24/7 to provide immediate service.
Step 5: Service Completion and Payment
On your scheduled service day, our skilled team will arrive within the agreed timeframe, complete the work to our exacting standards, and perform thorough cleanup to protect your landscape. We only collect payment once the work is finished and you're completely satisfied with the results—a policy that reflects our commitment to trust and customer satisfaction.
What to Expect Regarding Timing
We want to be completely honest about our current availability: we're typically scheduling tree services about two weeks out. While we wish we could offer same-week service for all jobs, our commitment to quality work and thorough service means we don't rush projects or overbook our schedule. Each job gets the time and attention it deserves.
For emergency storm damage or safety hazards, we're available 24/7 and respond as quickly as possible, often the same day you contact us.
For Veterans Day free tree services, we encourage you to contact us by early November to ensure we can fit your project into our Veterans Day schedule. These spots fill quickly as word spreads throughout the veteran community in Tampa, Clearwater, and surrounding areas.
