#1 Safety always comes first when it comes to trimming trees. Staying safe on a tree trimming site means a lot of things, so you'll want to double check that list twice, and always make sure there is someone there to monitor the situation from the side lines.

#2 Prune and trim trees during the tree's dormant season for the best result. Sometimes trees or limbs need to be taken down because they are a safety concern, and that's fine. But if everybody's safe, wait until the opportune time.

#3 Not all branches can be removed. If a branch is less than 5 centimeters, it's safe to cut. If the branch is larger in diameter (greater than 10 centimeters), you should decide if the branch really needs to come down, or not.

#4 When you are pruning trees, trim branches that run into each other or twist. Space out the branches laterally and as evenly as possible.
