Washington Township is the most populous municipality in Gloucester County with 48,677 residents, taking in Turnersville, Grenloch, Sewell, Hurffville, Bells Lake, Green Tree and Mount Pleasant. It is heavily developed suburban ground threaded by Greentree Road, Egg Harbor Road, Ganttown Road, Hurffville-Crosskeys Road, Route 42, Route 47 and Route 55, with Washington Lake Park and Bells Lake Park as its green anchors.
Gloucester County lies entirely in New Jersey’s Coastal Plain and is named in the Inner Coastal Plain region of fragmented woodlands and relict coastal hardwood forests. Washington Township is not on the Pinelands Commission’s list of Pinelands Area municipalities; the listed Washington Township is the Burlington County one. Nearby Wenonah documents pine-oak-hickory woods with large oak and tulip poplar, and that is the canopy age we deal with on established township streets.
Those trees are now big enough to matter. We use tree removal where decay, storm damage or dead ash has made a tree a hazard to a house, and pruning to ANSI A300 standards for clearance over roofs, drives and pools. Beech leaf disease was detected in Gloucester County for the first time in 2024, and emerald ash borer has been found in all 21 New Jersey counties according to the USDA Forest Service 2024 New Jersey Forest Health Highlights.
On September 1, 2021 the remnants of Hurricane Ida dropped 2.05 inches of rain at the Washington Township 2.1 NNW gauge, one of the highest reports in Gloucester County, and the same system produced the EF-3 Harrisonville to Mullica Hill to Deptford tornado, a 12.6-mile track with 150 mph estimated peak winds that uprooted many trees in Cedar Grove and nearly deforested a thickly wooded area near Breakneck Road.
Before that, the June 29-30, 2012 derecho crossed southern New Jersey with widespread gusts of 60 to nearly 90 mph, taking down numerous trees and power lines and leaving hundreds of thousands without power for up to a week. Superstorm Sandy on October 29, 2012 again brought down many trees and lines across the region.
In dense neighbourhoods, one failed tree can hit a roof, a fence and a car at once. We answer emergency calls 24 hours a day at (856) 457-0196. Do not go near a tree resting on a wire. We will tarp and stabilise, then remove in sections so nothing shifts onto the structure.
We have been serving Gloucester County for over 20 years. Bergholz’s Tree Experts LLC is registered with the New Jersey Board of Tree Experts, NJTC Registration #768078, and work is supervised by a New Jersey Licensed Tree Care Operator (Gunar Bergholz, LTCO #862). We are fully insured, a TCIA member, and all pruning is performed to ANSI A300 standards.
Township work often involves HOAs, shared property lines and tight side yards, so we put the plan in writing: which trees, which cuts, where the equipment sits and how long we will be on site. That keeps neighbours and management companies comfortable. Our average is 4.9 stars across more than 300 Google reviews.
We cover single-home work and commercial tree service for retail, office and institutional properties along the Black Horse Pike and Delsea Drive corridors, and we are certified for public works projects.
Washington Township borders Deptford Township, Glassboro, Mantua Township, Monroe Township, Pitman and Gloucester Township, and we work across the whole of Gloucester County.
Two adjoining pages: Glassboro to the southwest and Sewell, the 08080 area partly inside this township.
