About Big Wood Tree Service, LLC

The North Platte cuts a wide, cottonwood-lined bottom through Torrington, and those big old trees hold enough snow in their bare branches to bury a driveway twice over if a warm afternoon shakes it all loose at once, which is exactly the kind of morning Big Wood Tree Service works hardest. A yard set back under the cottonwoods gets cleared, then checked again by early afternoon once the sun's had a chance to knock loose whatever the trees were holding. Out past the river bottom, the land flattens into the sugar beet and corn ground Goshen County is built on, and driveways there face a different problem: wind with nothing to slow it down, stacking drift against the first machine shed or fence it meets. This crew runs both kinds of route, the shaded river-bottom lanes and the wide-open field driveways, in the same morning if the storm calls for it. It's steady work along a river that keeps Torrington green in summer and complicated in winter.
