Crickets Tree Service is a family-owned, licensed tree care company based in New Castle, Delaware, serving New Castle County and surrounding areas since 2001. We offer tree removal, tree trimming, stump grinding, stump removal, brush and hedge trimming, tree cabling, pruning, and emergency storm services, handled by an experienced, family-owned crew with over 25 years in the field.

Our coverage footprint takes in every city listed below from Wilmington and Newark to Bear, Middletown, Glasgow, Hockessin, Pike Creek, Claymont, and beyond. We also travel to select communities in Maryland and Pennsylvania within roughly 15 to 25 miles of our base at 122 Hunn Rd, New Castle, DE 19720, including Elkton and other Cecil County communities. If you're asking "Is there a local tree service near me in Delaware?" we're probably already working in your neighbourhood. Our crew knows this region's tree species, from the white oaks and sweetgums of New Castle County to the maples and elms lining older Wilmington streets, and we understand how Delaware's storm patterns put those trees under stress year after year. That local knowledge, built up over 25-plus years, means faster assessments, smarter cuts, and fewer surprises on the job. Call us at (302) 584-4863 to confirm we cover your area.
