By City of Moorhead - June 30, 2026

If you have tree damage and are wondering what to do, here are some helpful tips as you assess some of the damage.

Boulevard or Park Tree Damage

Residents that notice damage to a City tree (boulevard tree or in parks) should report it to Forestry by calling 218.299.5422 Option 4.

Branches and Private Tree Damage

Residents that experience damage to private trees can utilize the brush pickup program for smaller branches. Branches will be picked up on their recycling day. Branches are limited to 8 inches in diameter and a pile size of 4’x8’x12’.

Residents that have larger damage can haul and dispose of branches and wood debris at the Compost Site. 

  • 1800 Hwy 75 N (Just north of Centennial Park Baseball Fields on Hwy 75)
  • Monday-Friday 8:00 am to 4:15 pm
  • Saturday 8:00 am to 11:45 am

Residents that have damage to a private tree but are unable to remove the tree themselves should seek a licensed contractor to perform the work. List of licenses contractors: https://www.moorheadmn.gov/business-development/business-licenses-and-permits/tree-contractors/
