About Aforst Tree Service

The Best Tree Business in the Carolinas 

Welcome to Aforst Tree Service — where chainsaws roar, branches fall safely, and your trees get the VIP treatment they deserve. Whether you’re dealing with a hazardous tree that needs emergency removal or just want to shape up your favorite backyard oak, we’re here to help you love your landscape again.

We proudly serve Charlotte, Gastonia, Hickory, and the surrounding areas with trusted, top-rated tree care solutions.

Family-Owned, Rooted in Excellence

Founded by Geraldine and JC, Aforst Tree Service has been serving the Carolinas with expert tree trimming and removal for over 10+ years. What started as a small operation with a single truck and a dream has grown into one of the most respected tree service companies in the region.

As a family-owned business, we treat every customer like a neighbor—because you are. From the first phone call to the final clean-up, we bring honesty, care, and craftsmanship to every job. We say it proudly: if you’re not happy, we ain’t happy.

Local Arborists. Big Results.

Our team is made up of skilled local arborists who are passionate about trees and trained in the safest, most effective techniques. Whether it's removing dangerous trees, trimming overgrown branches, clearing storm damage, or grinding down stubborn stumps, we do it with precision and pride.

Every member of our crew is trained, insured, and prepared to treat your property with the respect it deserves. And yes—we can make a mess, but we always clean up before we leave. Our “No Twig Left Behind” policy means YOU sign off on the final inspection.
