Why Caldwell
What we see on the ground
Officially, the town is the Borough of Caldwell.
The Borough of Caldwell is its own town, separate from West Caldwell and North Caldwell.
Caldwell's 2020 street tree policy covers the trees along its streets. The Borough removes street trees that are dead, have a disease that is hard to control, or get in the way of traffic.
During street, sidewalk or curb repairs, the Borough also removes street trees that cause sidewalk accessibility problems, damage curbs, make pavement unsafe or harm underground utilities.
If a street tree in front of your home is slated to come down, you can ask to keep it, as long as you agree in writing to pay for all repairs, upkeep and liability.
Local rules change. Confirm the current details with the township before work starts.

Questions
Tree questions in Caldwell
- Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Caldwell?
- Caldwell's documented tree policy covers street trees owned by the Borough, not trees on private property. For a tree in your own yard, ask the Borough directly what rules apply before you schedule work. Rules like these can change, so confirm the current details with the township before any work starts.
- Can I keep a street tree the Borough of Caldwell plans to remove?
- Yes, you can ask. The Borough lets property owners keep a tree slated for removal if they agree in writing to cover all remediation costs, maintenance and liability.
- Do you work near the Grover Cleveland Birthplace?
- Yes. We work on homes throughout the Borough of Caldwell, including the streets near the Grover Cleveland Birthplace, the house where President Grover Cleveland was born in 1837 and a National Register site since 1977. Older lots here often have mature trees close to houses, which we plan around at the free estimate.
