For a single-family home on a lot zoned R-1 or R-2, Riverdale's zoning code exempts tree removal from its tree rules, which apply to new subdivisions, development and protected buffers. Share photos of the tree and what's near it, such as roofs, fences and driveways, when you request an estimate.
Tree Removal details →Water and willow oaks in Riverdale's established subdivisions often spread over roofs and driveways. Trimming can remove dead or weak limbs and open clearance. Tell us which trees you want to keep.
Tree Trimming & Pruning details →Grinding out an old stump makes room for lawn, beds or a fence line. Mention how many stumps there are and how equipment can reach them.
Stump Grinding & Removal details →Summer straight-line winds and occasional ice storms bring Riverdale trees down on roofs and lines. Stay clear of downed lines and call your utility first, then call us to discuss the situation and current availability.
Emergency & Storm Damage details →Riverdale's tree rules apply to new subdivisions, development and protected stream buffers, so clearing for construction needs city review. Tell us what you want cleared and kept.
Land Clearing & Lot Prep details →Our Jonesboro yard sells mulch, topsoil, fill dirt and firewood about 7 miles from Riverdale. Call with your address, product and quantity to check stock and pickup or delivery options.
Landscape Supplies details →Sitting just south of the airport, Riverdale's subdivisions carry the same mature water oaks, willow oaks, and loblolly pines as the rest of Clayton County — and the same red-clay soil that turns into an uprooting hazard once a storm saturates the ground. Summer straight-line winds and the occasional ice storm (like the 2014 event that knocked out power across the south metro) are what bring these trees down on roofs and lines.
For a normal single-family home, Riverdale does not require a tree-removal permit — the ordinance specifically exempts individual lots zoned R-1 or R-2, and its tree rules kick in only for new subdivisions, commercial development, and protected stream buffers. So removing a tree in your own yard generally requires no city permit.
Bottom line: No tree-removal permit is required for an individual single-family lot zoned R-1 or R-2. Tree rules apply only to new subdivisions, development, and protected buffers. Confirm current requirements with your local planning office and discuss any permit responsibilities when arranging your estimate.
