Tree removal and trimming is an important service offered by Sumner-Cowley Electric. Trees interfering with power lines are a major source of line loss and outages. We are constantly removing and trimming back trees that are either very near to interfering or already interfering with Sumner-Cowley Electric lines.
Every year, heavy snow and ice cause tree limbs to break and fall on our lines causing outages. Sometimes these outages are widespread and take a considerable amount of time to repair. It is important that trees be removed or trimmed back away from power lines properly.
If you have trees on your property that are either near or touching the Co-op's lines, please submit a Tree Triming and Removal Consent Form and we will trim or remove the trees out of our lines. Sumner-Cowley Electric will only trim or remove trees that are on the primary side of the meter.
