About New Jersey

New Jersey requires every tree care company to have at least one Licensed Tree Expert or Licensed Tree Care Operator and to register as a tree care business.1 State law keeps work 6 feet from power lines, and the line owner must be told and precautions finished before work starts.2 The state's one-call law lists tree and root removal as excavation, so call 811 before a stump comes out.3 Towns in New Jersey set their own tree rules, and municipal shade tree commissions regulate trees in streets and parks.2
