Things to consider when planting trees on a commercial property
Zoning and regulations
Check local zoning regulations and landscaping guidelines to ensure compliance with any restrictions or requirements for planting trees on commercial properties.
Utility considerations
Be aware of the location of underground utilities before planting. Avoid planting near utility lines to prevent potential conflicts and ensure safety during maintenance.
Aesthetic and brand alignment
Choose tree species that align with the aesthetic and branding goals of the commercial property. Consider the visual impact and how the trees contribute to the overall image.
Functional use of space
Plan tree placement strategically to enhance the functionality of the space. Consider factors such as shade provision, windbreaks, or visual screening for optimal utilization.
Maintenance and care
Evaluate the level of maintenance and care the chosen trees will require. Select species that fit well with the available resources and budget for ongoing care.
Environmental sustainability
Opt for native or adaptive tree species that are well-suited to the local climate. This promotes environmental sustainability and reduces the need for excessive water or care.
Safety and accessibility
Ensure that tree placement prioritizes safety and accessibility for pedestrians, vehicles, and structures. Trim branches to maintain clear sightlines and pathways.
Long-term impact
Consider the long-term impact of tree growth on the property. Account for mature tree size, potential shade patterns, and any impacts on neighboring structures or vegetation.
