Serving Fullerton, Nebraska
Fullerton is the Nance County seat of about 1,200 people where the Cedar River meets the Loup, platted around 1878 on old Pawnee reservation ground, and the farthest west we go.
Local & Insured
Fullerton is the Nance County seat, a city of about 1,240 people 38.2 road miles and about 49 minutes west of Columbus through Genoa, where NE-14 meets NE-22 and the Cedar River joins the Loup. The land was part of the Pawnee Reservation from 1857.
Platted around 1878, the town is named for Randall Fuller, who bought reservation land when it sold and gave some for public use. The Loup Power canal headworks lie between here and Genoa. Both river bottoms grow cottonwood, walnut and willow, and the older streets have silver maple, hackberry, Siberian elm and dead ash.

Why a Columbus Crew Comes to Fullerton
Fullerton is the western end of our list, and we make it without a trip charge. Jenna groups it with Genoa and Silver Creek work so the estimate date stays quick.
Cottonwoods on the Cedar and the Loup grow enormous in soft sandy ground and lean toward the water. We rig them down from the dry side, in sections, and never drop toward the river.
The river lots around Fullerton stay soft for a week after a heavy rain. We schedule around it and keep the chip truck on the drive so a removal does not leave ruts across the lawn.
Fullerton writes its own ordinances, separate from Columbus's. A tree wholly on your lot is your call; for a tree over a city street we suggest a quick call to the city office first, and outside town the rural fire district handles burn permits.
Not for a tree standing wholly on your own lot. Fullerton keeps its own ordinances, so before cutting near a public street we check with the town office. More on our permits page.
Call (402) 555-0173 about storm damage or a tree on the roof and you get a same-day or next-day answer. Jenna books routine estimates within a few days, with most work done inside two weeks.
If a cottonwood on your Fullerton river lot is leaning at the house or a silver maple in town has split over the garage, call us for a free written estimate.
