Spading & Relocating Services

Spading & Relocating Services
When mature trees or large shrubs need to be moved, Myers Tree Farm & Landscape provides professional tree spading and plant relocation services designed to protect the health, structure, and long-term viability of your landscape. Whether you’re redesigning a property, preserving valuable plant material, or relocating trees during construction, our experienced team uses specialized equipment and proven techniques to ensure successful results.

Tree spading allows us to carefully extract trees and large shrubs with an intact root ball, significantly reducing transplant shock. This method makes it possible to relocate existing plantings within your property—or move them to an entirely new location—while maintaining their established growth and appearance.

What Is Tree Spading?
Tree spading is a mechanical process that uses a hydraulic spade to dig around and beneath a tree or shrub, capturing a large, uniform root ball. This technique keeps the root system protected during removal, transport, and replanting, giving the plant the best chance to thrive after relocation.

Our spading equipment allows us to handle a wide range of tree and shrub sizes, making it an ideal solution for both residential and commercial properties.

Our Spading & Relocation Services Include:
  • Tree and shrub relocation on-site or off-site
  • Preservation of mature or valuable plant material
  • Relocation for construction or property renovations
  • Landscape redesign and plant repositioning
  • New installations using spaded trees
  • Proper replanting, staking, and after-care guidance
Each project begins with an evaluation of soil conditions, plant health, and site access to ensure the relocation process is safe, efficient, and successful.
