Palm Care Services
Palm Tree Relocation
Relocating a palm tree is not just a matter of digging it up and planting it elsewhere, it requires the right knowledge, tools, and timing to ensure the tree survives and thrives in its new location. At Total Care Ground Services, our team has been moving palms across the West Valley since 1986, serving Litchfield Park, Goodyear, Avondale, Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Sun City, and nearby communities.

Why Palm Relocation Matters
Palm trees are living investments. Whether you need to move a palm due to construction, landscaping redesign, or to give it more space, the process must be handled correctly. Poor relocation techniques can damage roots, shock the tree, or even kill it.
Professional palm relocation ensures:
- Safe excavation and handling of the root ball
- Correct preparation of the new site
- Minimal transplant shock for long-term survival
- Preservation of the palm’s beauty and value
Our Palm Relocation Process
- Assessment & Planning – We begin by evaluating the size, species, and health of the palm, along with soil and site conditions.
- Careful Excavation – Our crew uses specialised equipment to safely dig out the palm with an intact root ball, reducing stress on the tree.
- Transport & Placement – Palms are carefully transported and replanted in a prepared site, with attention to depth, orientation, and soil amendments.
- Stabilisation & Aftercare – We install supports if needed and provide detailed watering and care instructions to promote strong root re-establishment.
When to Consider Palm Relocation
- Property or landscape redesign
- Construction projects requiring tree removal
- Palms outgrowing their current space
- Moving mature palms to increase property value or curb appeal

Frequently Asked Questions
Your Landscaping Questions Answered!
Discover more about our services and policies with our Frequently Asked Questions section.
1. Why should I hire a professional arborist for my tree care?
An arborist is a professional trained in the art and science of planting, caring for and maintaining trees. Proper tree care enhances the beauty and value of your property while preventing hazards; poorly maintained trees can become a liability. Certified arborists have passed a comprehensive exam and must continue their education to stay current, so you benefit from the latest techniques and ethical standards.
2. What tree services do you offer?
We provide a full suite of arborist services, including pruning and trimming to improve health and safety, safe removal of hazardous or dying trees, emergency storm response, tree planting and species selection, and plant health care such as fertilisation, soil modification and pest management.
3. How do you ensure water conservation in your landscaping?
Water conservation is built into everything we do. We design with drought-tolerant, desert-adapted plantings, use organic mulches to retain soil moisture, and install and fine-tune efficient irrigation systems. These water-wise strategies keep your landscape healthy while reducing waste and lowering your water bills.
4. Do you offer free consultations or quotes?
Yes. We offer an initial consultation to understand your goals and evaluate your trees and landscape. This allows us to provide an accurate, customised proposal. Use our “Request Your Consultation” button or call us to schedule.
5. What areas do you serve?
We are headquartered in Litchfield Park and proudly serve The Valley, including Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Sun City, Goodyear, Avondale and neighbouring communities.
6. Do you provide emergency tree services?
Absolutely. Storms and accidents can cause limbs or entire trees to fall, which can be dangerous to handle without professional help. Our emergency crews are trained to remove or stabilise storm‑damaged trees safely and will respond promptly to protect your property.
