Tree Trimming by First Energy:

Please note: First Energy is the only utility that trims trees around wires. First Energy hires a contractor every year to do maintenance trimming. Once the contractor trims the tree(s), they usually come back within the week to pick up the branches. However, if First Energy has to trim branches during or after a storm event, they leave the branches and it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to dispose of them. Branches may be put out with your regular garbage but they must be cut into 3’-4’ lengths and visibly bundled. Please call (216) 289-2701 with any questions.
