About Waits Tree Service
A woman-owned family business serving Central Florida since 1996. Over 25 years of trusted, professional tree care.
Our Story
Waits Tree Service was founded in 1996 by Shannon Wait with a simple mission: provide honest, reliable tree care to Central Florida homeowners and businesses. What started as a small family operation has grown into one of Hillsborough County's most trusted tree service companies, serving thousands of commercial and residential accounts over more than 25 years.
As a woman-owned family business, we take pride in treating every customer like family. When our crew comes to your home or business, you're not just another job — you're a neighbor we're here to help. That personal touch is what we call the Waits difference, and it's why our customers keep coming back year after year.
At Waits Tree Service, we understand that trees are not just green foliage — they're a vital part of your visual landscaping. They provide shade, comfort, and beauty to your property. When trees grow, they sometimes need to be trimmed, and unfortunately, trees die and must be removed. This is what we specialize in.
