Tree Safety Tip: Positive Control

What is positive control? The use of rigging equipment, ropes, lowering devices, cutting techniques, and specific knots designed to ensure that we maintain control of tree pieces being removed or tools being used while working aloft.

We understand it can be concerning to watch tree work happening above your home during pruning or removals. Rest assured, our arborists are trained to maintain positive control at all times. This means we use specialized rigging equipment, ropes, knots, and precise cutting techniques to ensure every branch, limb, and tool is carefully controlled from start to finish. These skills are developed and practiced in controlled environments so we can confidently protect your property, your loved ones, and our crew on every job.

We're proud of Lydia for stepping up to the mic and doing a great job representing NUF - Go Dawgs!

June is National Safety Month. Safety is often measured by what doesn’t happen, but real safety is built on what does happen every day in the field. Safety is the adjustments crews make, the decisions under pressure, and the way teams communicate and support each other in dynamic conditions. Our work is variable, and success depends on the ability to adapt.

This month, we’re focused on strengthening that capacity:
• Skills and experience
• Planning and preparation
• Real-time communication
• Recognition and management of hazards

Our goal isn’t just fewer incidents - it’s better work. Because when work is done well, safety follows. That's the New Urban Forestry difference.

Trees do more than beautify a property - they help make summer more comfortable. From providing shade and naturally cooling the air to supporting energy efficiency and improving mental well-being, healthy trees deliver benefits that extend far beyond the landscape. As temperatures rise, investing in tree care can help your property stay cooler while contributing to a healthier, greener community. Read our latest blog to learn how trees help keep your property cooler this summer and why proactive tree care matters - https://www.newurbanforestry.com/news/trees-keep-your-property-cooler

Summer in the Southeast brings long days, high humidity, and rising temperatures. When regularly maintained, trees do more than enhance your landscape - they help create a more comfortable environment for your home and community.
