Arborvitae Privacy Tree Planting in Buckley WA

Privacy is one of the most common things homeowners ask us about. Fences help, but they only go so far. Trees that grow tall and stay green year-round - that's a real solution. That's exactly what this Buckley job was all about.

We hauled in a CAT skid steer along with a full truck load of arborvitae to get this done right. These trees are tall, heavy, and need to be placed precisely. You don't just drop them in the ground and call it a day. Proper spacing and depth matter a lot if you want them to fill in evenly and stay healthy long-term.

Fall is honestly one of the best times to put trees in the ground. The heat of summer is gone, so new root systems aren't fighting stress from the start. Cooler soil temps and consistent rain here in the Pacific Northwest give newly planted trees a solid window to establish before winter sets in. By spring, they're already working.

What you end up with is a living privacy screen that gets better every year. No gaps, no maintenance headaches down the road if they're planted correctly. This row is already looking strong against the existing fence line, and it's only going to fill in more from here.

This is the kind of residential work we genuinely enjoy. It solves a real problem, it adds lasting value to the property, and it looks great from day one. If you've been thinking about adding trees to your yard this season, fall really is the window to do it.
