Local Know-How

Cumberland Tree Removal, Done Right

Cumberland is an unincorporated edge city in Cobb County, about ten miles northwest of downtown Atlanta where I-75, I-285 and Cobb Parkway meet. Cumberland Mall opened here in 1973, the Cobb Galleria Centre followed in 1994, and Truist Park, the Braves’ ballpark beside The Battery Atlanta, played its first regular-season game on April 14, 2017. Tucked between all of that are pockets of older residential streets with real tree canopy. Property owners formed the Cumberland Community Improvement District in 1988, the first in Georgia, and it has funded much of the infrastructure around the district.

Local Conditions

Cumberland’s Trees, Ground and Weather

In Cumberland, trees live close to pavement. Office parks, apartment complexes and highway ramps leave narrow planting strips and compacted soil, and UGA Extension notes that most roots in Georgia clay sit in the top 12 to 18 inches, the same layer construction disturbs. The older streets in between still hold tall oaks and pines from before the build-out. Those mature Cumberland trees, hemmed in on one or more sides by newer paving, are the ones to watch for crown dieback or a fresh lean after a summer storm.

Tree Services for Cumberland

A Cumberland job can be a quiet backyard one day and a tree beside a multi-family parking lot the next. Residential work is planned around driveways and neighbors; anything near commercial or multi-family buildings is planned around traffic, parking, access hours and any permit that applies to non-residential property. Storm calls here often mean a limb across a drive or a pine leaning toward a building. For condo and apartment properties in Cumberland, the written price can go straight to the property manager or board that has to approve it.

Permits & Rules

Tree Rules That Apply in Cumberland

Cumberland isn’t a city, so the unincorporated Cobb County code applies. A homeowner taking down a tree in an existing Cumberland yard generally doesn’t trigger the county’s tree article, which is tied to land disturbance permits. Commercial, multi-family and redevelopment sites are different: clearing at that scale goes through the county’s Site Plan Review, and violating the article carries a civil penalty of at least $1,000 a day plus replacement trees.

What Cumberland Gets With Us

Planned Around Traffic

Near the Galleria and Truist Park, a Cumberland job is staged so trucks, the chipper and the drop zone stay clear of busy roads and event days.

Mature Trees, Tight Spaces

The older oaks and pines left between Cumberland’s newer buildings often stand right against pavement, so most come down in rigged pieces.
