Consistently Ahead of Schedule

Every past performance contract has been completed ahead of schedule — from a 2-month project finished in 5 weeks to a 1.5-year contract delivered in 4 months.

Mechanized Equipment Advantage

The Sennebogen 718 Tree Handler, John Deere 2054 Tong Tosser, and Tigercat 830D with hotsaw and mastication head provide industrial mechanized capacity far beyond what labor-only felling crews can deliver.

VIPR Emergency Mobilization

USFS VIPR-qualified with full crew and equipment deployable within 24–48 hours for emergency hazard tree response anywhere in the continental United States.

What We Do

Core Competencies

From roadside hazard tree removal to full-scale timber harvesting and wildland fire mitigation, DC Falling operates where the work is most demanding and the stakes are highest.

Hazard Tree Removal

Roadside, fire-damaged, and high-risk area removal — including work on steep slopes, unstable terrain, and fire-scarred landscapes requiring specialized felling techniques.

Fire Suppression & Fire Mitigation

Wildland fire suppression support and pre-fire fuel reduction. Experienced crews who understand fire behavior and can work safely in active and post-fire environments.

Forest Management & Restoration

USFS-aligned restoration support including selective timber harvest, stand improvement, and ecological restoration projects across federally managed lands.

Industrial-Scale Logging & Timber Harvesting

Full mechanized timber harvest operations supported by the Sennebogen 718 Tree Handler, John Deere 2054 Tong Tosser, and Tigercat 830D with hotsaw and mastication head — handling volume that manual crews cannot.

Road Clearing & Right-of-Way Maintenance

Priority road stewardship and right-of-way clearing for USFS road networks, including Tier 1 and Tier 2 roads across multi-thousand-acre project areas.

Project Supervision & Crew Deployment

Full project lead capability with experienced crew supervision. Cutters and machine operators deployable within 48 hours — crews of 5 to 9 personnel plus equipment.
