Onset is a village of Victorian cottages on a bluff above its own bay, close to the Cape Cod Canal. It is near the outer end of our range from Halifax, and we make the trip for removals, pruning and storm work.

Local conditions
Trees and lots in Onset
Cottage lots here are narrow and the streets were laid out long before bucket trucks. Tall oaks and pitch pines stand over porches and gingerbread trim with only a few feet to spare. The soil is sand, and the bluff and Point Independence take wind straight off Onset Bay. Oaks hold up well but carry dead wood over roofs. Pines lean toward the light and uproot in gales. This Wareham village also fills with summer traffic, which affects scheduling.
Typical work in Onset
- Lowering large oak limbs and whole trees over cottage roofs and porches without damage.
- Removing leaning pitch pines from narrow side yards between closely spaced summer houses.
- Off-season pruning and cleanup while cottages are closed and streets are empty.
Good to know in Onset
The bluff, the beaches and the shore of Onset Bay are protected coastal resource areas, so ask the Wareham Conservation Commission before cutting near them. Trees in the village parks and along streets are public. Fall through spring is the easiest time for truck access.

Fantastic work. Fast, efficient, added some extra trees to the quote the day of for a reasonable price. All in all, would definitely use them again.
Excellent! I highly recommend Newcombs. The crew is awesome. Efficient, friendly, accommodating. Our experience was 5+ stars.
I had a great experience with Paul and his crew! I had twelve very large pine trees taken down in the front of my house. They were able to complete the job within a day, everything completed and cleaned up. Excellent work.
