What Commercial Clients Need in a Tree Contractor

Managing trees across commercial and municipal properties is different from a one-off residential job. Here's what we bring.

$5M Insurance Coverage

Commercial and municipal work demands serious coverage. We carry $5M in liability plus full workers' comp — and provide certificates on request.

Certified, Trained Crews

ISA-certified arborists and trained, uniformed crews — including certified line-clearance where required.

Documentation & Compliance

Detailed reporting, work orders, and compliance paperwork that satisfy property managers, boards, and municipal requirements.

One Point of Contact

A single account manager coordinating every site, so you're not juggling vendors across a portfolio.

24/7 Emergency Response

Storm damage across your sites gets a fast, coordinated response — often the same day — to keep properties safe and open.

Predictable Contract Pricing

Annual and multi-site contracts with clear, predictable pricing and no surprise invoices.

About Metroline

Chicagoland's Tree Contractor at Scale

Metroline was built for the work most tree companies can't handle: managing trees across dozens of commercial properties, keeping a municipality's right-of-ways clear, or mobilizing crews across a region after a storm. Since 2003 we've grown into one of Chicagoland's go-to commercial and municipal tree contractors.

What sets us apart is capacity and reliability: certified crews and a real equipment fleet, $5M in coverage, professional documentation, and the systems to coordinate work across many sites at once. Property managers, HOAs, municipalities, and utilities keep us on contract because we make tree care one less thing they have to worry about, at any scale.

  • Built for commercial & municipal scale
  • $5M insured, ISA-certified crews
  • 500+ commercial accounts since 2003
  • Real equipment fleet, not rentals
The Metroline Difference

Why Portfolios and Cities Keep Us on Contract

Commercial and municipal tree care is a logistics business as much as an arboriculture one. We're built for both.

Who We Serve

Portfolios, Communities, and Cities

Metroline is built for organizations that manage trees at scale. Commercial property managers rely on us to keep offices, retail, and industrial sites safe and presentable. HOAs put entire communities on one annual contract. Municipalities trust us with street trees, parks, and right-of-way work that has to meet code. Utilities count on our certified crews for line clearance.

What they all share is a need for a tree contractor with the capacity, coverage, and professionalism to deliver reliably — across many sites, on schedule, with the paperwork in order. That's the entire reason Metroline exists, and it's what we do better than anyone in Chicagoland.

Trusted at Scale

Chicagoland's Organizations Trust Metroline

We manage eighteen commercial properties across Chicagoland and needed one tree contractor who could handle all of them on a schedule. Metroline delivered — proactive assessments, fast response, clean documentation, and one point of contact. Their certified crews and insurance coverage made them an easy choice for our portfolio.
Janet KowalskiProperty Manager, Commercial Portfolio
As a municipality we have strict insurance, safety, and documentation requirements, and Metroline met every one. Right-of-way clearing, park tree management, and storm response — all handled professionally and on budget. Their crews are certified and their paperwork is spotless. A genuinely reliable municipal partner.
Director of Public WorksMunicipal Right-of-Way, Suburban Chicago
Our HOA has hundreds of mature trees across the community and Metroline manages them all under one annual contract. Regular assessments have caught hazards early and saved us from emergencies. Residents are happy, our board is happy, and the pricing has been fair and predictable. Exactly what a large community needs.
HOA Board PresidentMulti-Site HOA Contract, Naperville
When a major storm took down trees across our office campus, Metroline mobilized a full crew within hours and had us safe and operational the same day. That kind of scale and speed is exactly why we keep them on contract. For commercial tree care at volume, they're in a different league.

Good to Know

Commercial Tree-Care Questions, Answered

Do you handle multi-site and portfolio contracts?

Yes — it's one of the main things we do. We manage tree care across entire commercial portfolios, HOA communities, and municipal jurisdictions under a single contract, with one account manager coordinating every site, one schedule, and one predictable invoice. Instead of juggling vendors property by property, you get a single reliable partner for all of it.

What insurance and certifications do you carry?

We carry $5M in general liability coverage plus full workers' compensation, and we're bonded — well above what most residential tree companies hold, because commercial and municipal work demands it. Our crews include ISA-certified arborists, and certified line-clearance crews where utility work requires them. We provide certificates of insurance and documentation on request, and we're set up to meet strict municipal and corporate vendor requirements.

Can you meet municipal compliance and documentation requirements?

Absolutely — it's a core part of how we operate. We provide the detailed work orders, reporting, safety documentation, and compliance paperwork that municipalities and large property managers require. Our crews work to code, and our office handles the administrative side so your team isn't chasing paperwork. Meeting these requirements reliably is a big part of why organizations keep us on contract.

How quickly can you respond to storm emergencies?

Fast, and at scale. For clients on contract, storm damage across your sites gets a coordinated emergency response, often the same day, with enough crews and equipment to handle multiple locations at once. Keeping your properties safe and operational after a storm is exactly what our capacity is built for — it's a level of response a small crew simply can't match.

Do you work with utilities on line clearance?

Yes. We field certified line-clearance crews trained to work safely around energized power lines, keeping vegetation clear of utility infrastructure to maintain reliability and safety. This is specialized, high-stakes work with its own certifications and protocols, and it's part of our commercial and municipal capability.

How does pricing work for ongoing contracts?

For ongoing commercial, HOA, and municipal work we build predictable contract pricing based on the scope, number of sites, and services in your program — so you get clear, budgetable costs rather than surprise invoices. We'll assess your properties, understand your needs and budget, and put together a bid and program that fits. Predictable pricing across your portfolio is part of the value of working with a single contractor at scale.
