Why choose Canzler

The same crew your neighbors have called since 1965

Richard Canzler founded Canzler Tree Service on one promise: the highest quality work, done promptly, at a competitive price. That promise still guides every job today.

Tony and Danny Canzler now lead field operations, doing the climbing and cutting themselves rather than hiring outside contractors. That hands-on ownership is why 80–90% of our work comes from repeat customers and referrals, and why we continue to earn an excellent reputation across the South Sound.

  • Licensed, bonded and insured — your property is protected.
  • BBB Accredited since 1982 with the highest consumer rating.
  • Family owned and operated climbers who treat your yard like their own.

About Canzler

A Tacoma tree service with roots that run deep

Since 1965, Canzler Tree Service has helped Tacoma-area homeowners manage their trees with skill, honesty and fair pricing.

Richard P. Canzler started the business with his wife handling the office while he ran every job. Today their sons Tony and Danny continue that tradition in the field—climbing, cutting and cleaning up every project themselves. We treat customers right because repeat business and referrals have always been the heart of our company.

Fully licensed, bonded and insured, with credentials on file and decades of local references, we’re ready to earn your trust on the next tree job.
