When a tree in your Marietta yard is dead, diseased, or leaning toward your roof, waiting rarely makes it safer. MMP Tree Service LLC handles tree removal throughout Marietta and East Cobb — from single ornamental trees to towering white oaks near the Marietta Square historic core — with crews trained to remove safely in tight residential lots, near power lines, and close to neighboring properties.
Every removal follows International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) safety and rigging standards, which matters in a city like Marietta where mature hardwoods often sit close to homes, driveways, and fences built decades before the trees reached their current size.

How It Works
What’s Involved in a Marietta Tree Removal
Site assessment. We evaluate the tree’s lean, structural condition, and proximity to your home, driveway, or neighboring property before any cutting starts.
Access planning. Many Marietta lots — particularly in older neighborhoods near the Square — have tighter side-yard access than newer subdivisions, so we plan equipment placement and rigging accordingly.
Controlled removal. Depending on size and location, we use directional felling in open yards or sectional (piece-by-piece) removal with rigging when a tree is close to structures or power lines.
Cleanup and haul-away. Wood, brush, and debris are fully cleared unless you’d like the wood left for firewood — just let us know when you book.
Optional stump removal. Stump grinding can be bundled with your removal at a discount if you want the stump gone too, or scheduled separately later.
Tree Removal Cost in Marietta, GA
Most Marietta removals run $250–$3,000+, depending on:
- Tree height and trunk diameter
- Proximity to your home, garage, fence, or power lines
- Access — tight side yards near older homes can add time
- Whether stump removal is bundled in
We provide an exact number after a free, on-site look — no guessing over the phone.

Local Considerations
What Marietta Property Owners Should Know
Cobb County’s tree protection ordinance can apply to larger or specimen trees on some Marietta properties, particularly in established neighborhoods. We check this before scheduling and coordinate directly with the City of Marietta if a review is required, so it doesn’t hold up your project.
Marietta’s red clay soil drains slowly, which means root systems on mature hardwoods sometimes grow shallow and wide — a factor in deciding the safest felling or rigging approach for a given tree. The Georgia Forestry Commission publishes general guidance on regional soil and tree health that’s useful background if you’re curious why certain removals require more careful planning than others. During active storm season, the National Weather Service Atlanta office is a good resource for tracking watches and warnings that might affect the timing of a scheduled removal. And if your removal is storm-related, the Insurance Information Institute has a clear breakdown of when homeowner’s insurance typically covers the cost.
