Tree removal, trimming, stump grinding and storm cleanup requests are covered across Nettleton. Because Nettleton is inside Jonesboro city limits, the city’s free curbside limb pickup applies: limbs up to 10 feet long and 8 inches across, once a month on trash day. Most Jonesboro tree removals cost about $186 to $740.
Nettleton at a glance: what shapes tree work here
Nettleton started as its own community and voted to join Jonesboro on May 31, 1958, by 699 votes to 76. It has been part of the city ever since, though the Nettleton School District still runs separately from Jonesboro’s schools.
For tree work, being inside the city matters in two practical ways. First, Jonesboro’s Sanitation Department picks up limbs at the curb for free, which can make a cheaper “cut and leave” quote workable. Second, older Jonesboro neighborhoods have many mature trees close to houses, and those jobs usually need climbing and rigging rather than a simple fall, so ask how the crew will lower pieces near your roof and fence.

Jonesboro has a long storm record. The Encyclopedia of Arkansas notes deadly tornadoes in 1968 and 1973 that damaged large parts of the city, and the March 28, 2020 EF3 tornado that destroyed much of the Mall at Turtle Creek. In January 2009, an ice storm left parts of Jonesboro and Craighead County without power for up to two weeks.
The trees most likely to fail in the next storm are the ones already dead, cracked or leaning. Winter is a good time to have them looked at.
