TREE STAND AND SETUP

Tree setup does NOT include a tree stand.

Staff are trained to setup trees using our Cinco Express stands. Cinco stands are stable, easy to adjust, and hold adequate water. While tree setup DOES NOT include the tree stand, we highly recommend the Cinco brand. City Tree offers them for rent or purchase, and they are available in multiple sizes. We recommend our Goliath tree stands for all 12ft trees in above. When in doubt, go a size up for your stand.

If at any time your tree appears unstable or is leaning, please contact us immediately. As a tree settles or possibly is bumped by people/pets, it may shift and need adjustments for stabilization. We are more than happy to send a crew over for a safety check.

CINCO EXPRESS STAND SETUP PROCEDURE

  • Confirm stand matches tree size (up to 8ft small, 10ft medium, 12ft large) - if you are approaching the maximum height, consider going up a stand size
  • Place floor protection under the stand (recommended)
  • Clear all interfering branches near the bolts
  • Insert tree stump into spikes of the stand (tree stump must touch the bottom)
  • Tighten bolts around the tree trunk
  • Ensure tree is straight and adjust bolts as needed
  • Confirm tree is stable in the stand
  • Add water immediately (to avoid sap covering the trunk)
