Healthy trees don’t happen by accident. Proper trimming helps protect your home, improves the health and structure of your trees, and keeps your property looking its best.
At 3 Trees Arbor Care, every tree is evaluated individually. Some need light pruning. Others need more extensive corrective work. Our recommendations are based on what’s best for the tree not what’s most profitable for us.
Why Homeowners Trim Their Trees
Tree trimming isn't just about appearance. It helps:
- Remove dead or damaged branches before they become a hazard.
- Improve clearance over roofs, driveways, sidewalks, and structures.
- Encourage healthy growth and improve the tree's natural shape.
- Increase airflow and sunlight throughout the canopy.
- Reduce the chance of broken limbs during Idaho's wind and snow seasons.
- Keep fruit trees healthy and productive.
Our Approach to Tree Trimming
No two trees are alike. Every cut is made with the long-term health of the tree in mind. Whether we’re improving clearance, removing deadwood, reducing weight, or shaping a young tree for healthy future growth, the work is tailored to each tree and your property. We never rush the process or recommend unnecessary work.
Why Homeowners Choose 3 Trees Arbor Care
Homeowners in Meridian and Eagle want more than someone who can cut branches. They want someone who respects their property and takes pride in the finished result.

Why Proper Tree Trimming Matters
Many homeowners think tree trimming is purely cosmetic. Appearance is part of it, but proper trimming also plays an important role in tree health. Over time, trees develop dead branches, crowded limbs, and weak growth that can reduce airflow, limit sunlight penetration, and increase the risk of branch failure.
Tree trimming removes unnecessary growth and allows the tree to use its energy more efficiently. This often results in healthier growth, stronger branch structure, and a more balanced appearance.
Proper timing is also important. In Meridian and Eagle, many trees experience rapid growth during the spring and summer months. Routine trimming helps maintain a healthy canopy, improves airflow, and reduces the need for more extensive corrective trimming later.
Each tree species grows differently. Maples, oaks, ash trees, and other landscape trees require different trimming techniques. Herb evaluates each tree individually and uses trimming methods that fit the tree rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.
Our Process
Every project begins with a visit to your property. Herb walks the landscape with you, discusses your concerns, and evaluates the trees that need trimming.
Some homeowners need routine tree trimming. Others need help addressing overgrown canopies or removing dead and damaged branches. After the evaluation, you’ll receive a written estimate outlining the recommended work.
Once approved, the project is scheduled. Trees are trimmed and pruned using techniques appropriate for their condition, size, and species.
When the work is complete, all branches and debris are removed, and the property is cleaned. A final walkthrough ensures everything meets expectations before the project is finished.
What to Expect
Every job begins with an on-site visit from Herb. He'll walk the property with you, listen to your concerns, evaluate each tree, and explain what he recommends and just as importantly, what doesn't need to be done. You'll receive a written estimate before any work begins, and there is never any pressure to move forward.
Your property deserves the same care as your trees. We take steps to protect lawns, landscaping, driveways, and surrounding structures while we work. When the job is complete, we remove the debris and leave your property clean and ready to enjoy. Before we leave, Herb walks the property with you to make sure everything meets your expectations.

I called Herb and he came out to see the work I needed done and gave me a bid. He came today and did the work and did a beautiful job. I highly recommend him for any pruning job and will continue to use his services. Herb is wonderful and very in tune with his clients. Thank you, Herb, for the wonderful work.Posted on Google Michelle SilvaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. During the huge storm last week, part of my maple tree ended up on my neighbor’s roof. I tried calling several companies that night and first thing in the morning. Nobody answered or called me back. I found 3 Trees Arbor Care online, texted Herb, and he was at my house within the hour. He carefully and completely cleaned up the limbs and trimmed my tree back, going back and forth between our yards. He even meticulously cleaned up afterward. Herb is the nicest guy and knows what he’s doing. His prices are fair and very reasonable. We also discussed my tree’s health going forward. I have him saved as my go-to tree guy now, and so should you! 🌳Posted on Google Orville OsborneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Thank you Herb!Posted on Google Sean KunklerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Herb did a wonderful job trimming our tree and removing the dying ones from our back yard. He was super easy to work with, a great communicator, and did it at a fair price. Absolutely loved working with him and will use 3 Trees Arbor Care the next time we need any work done! 10/10Posted on Google Sallee DemarsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Herb did a great job! He went the extra mile for me and it was greatly appreciated!Posted on Google PattyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 3 Trees Arbor Care is probably the best tree care company I've ever dealt with. Herb is on time, knowledgeable, and does a fantastic job. He goes the extra mile, which is hard to find in today's world. We have no backyard neighbors and only a large farm behind us with the irrigation ditch just behind our back fence. There is also a large grove of trees which are beautiful, but messy, also behind our fence. As it turns out, Herb trimmed our trees the morning of the fence tear out. He saw the tree debris that had collected behind our fence and it would have made it more difficult for the fence guy to get a straight fence up with the mess that was there. Herb took it upon himself to move the debris, and even came back the next day to make sure the fence guy had a clear path to install the new fence. That is the kind of service that is hard to find. Going forward, we will not use anyone else for our tree needs. He's got a yearly job with us...maybe even twice a year.Posted on Google Wayne NeedhamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Herb was the best! He explained every aspect of the job. Different choices and let us know we were in charge. What every we wanted he was willing to provide. We would highly recommend this company.

Fast, easy to communicate with and all around great service. Will use for all my tree work going forward!Posted on Google Brett OlsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Herb did a great job pruning two trees at the front of our house (and doing a smaller trim on a third). After contacting him initially, he was quick to come over to inspect them and talk to me about what I'd like done. He quoted me a very reasonable price, so we scheduled the job for the next day. He was on time, friendly, knowledgeable, pruned the trees just as I wanted, and did a great cleanup afterwards, too. We'll be sure to use him again next time we need some tree work done. Highly recommended!Posted on Google Janice BeemerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so very grateful for the fantastic job Herb did trimming my trees and shrubs. It is nice to look out into the backyard and see order, neat and tidy trees. His work was fast and efficient and the clean up could not be faulted. I am ready for spring!
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to trim trees in Idaho?
Many trees are best pruned during late winter or early spring, although dead or hazardous branches can be removed whenever they’re discovered.
Do all trees need trimming every year?
No. Every species grows differently. During your assessment, we’ll recommend a schedule that’s appropriate for your trees.
Do you top trees?
No. Topping weakens trees, encourages poor growth, and shortens their lifespan. We use proper pruning techniques that support the tree’s long-term health.
Do you clean up after the job?
Absolutely. We don’t consider the job finished until your property is clean and the work has been reviewed with you.
