Tree Removal East on IL-16 in Ashmore, IL

Ashmore is a village of about 637 people on IL-16 in eastern Coles County, Illinois, around nine miles and fifteen minutes east of our shop. It's named for Hezekiah Ashmore and incorporated in 1867. The township runs from the Embarras River to the Edgar County line, flat prairie drained by the Pole Cat on its way west to the river.

Landmarks include the old Coles County Poor Farm almshouse, now Ashmore Estates, and the 62-foot Lincoln statue that went up in Charleston in 1969 and was later moved here. The trees are the Grand Prairie mix: silver and sugar maple over village lots, redcedar fencerows, cottonwood and sycamore in the draws, and dead ash on most farmsteads. Ashmore sits in Charleston's school district.

Why a Charleston Crew Comes to Ashmore

Why We're a Good Fit for Ashmore

Fifteen Minutes East, Same Price

Ashmore is on our straight run out IL-16 toward Kansas and Westfield, so Megan can usually slot your estimate into a day we're already headed east.

Prairie Wind, Open Ground

Nothing between Ashmore and the western horizon slows a straight-line wind. Village maples and farm groves take it full on, so we check cracked unions and root heave before storm season.

Redcedar and Ash in the Fencerows

Fencerows east of the Embarras have filled with redcedar and standing dead ash. We clear the line, chip the brush and grind the stumps so it can be fenced or farmed again.

Trees Near the Highway

Village lots face IL-16 and its service drops. Anything that could reach the pavement or a wire comes down in pieces from the bucket, with cones out and the utility called when needed.

Questions We Hear in Ashmore

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Ashmore?

Not for a tree on your own lot; we found no Coles County permit for private land. The rules that bite are about the street: limbs over it need clearance, and a dead tree threatening the road can be ruled a nuisance. If your Ashmore tree reaches a public street or walk, a quick call to the local office comes first. See our permits page.
