After a storm, keep your distance from hanging limbs, split trunks, leaning trees, and any tree touching a utility line. These situations can change quickly, even when the weather has passed.
Do not walk beneath damaged branches or attempt to move heavy debris yourself. If power lines may be involved, contact the utility provider and emergency services first.
Photos taken from a safe location can help explain the situation when you call. An on-site assessment is still the best way to determine a safe cleanup plan.
