Related questions
Will Toledo Edison remove tree branches off power lines?
Primary lines (top of poles, between poles): yes, Toledo Edison removes free of charge. Service drop (line from pole to your house): your responsibility. Call Edison first to confirm power is off and secured before any tree work near lines.
How fast can I get help after a major Toledo storm?
Major derecho or ice storm: expect 1-3 weeks for non-emergency removal. Tree on house = priority, usually 24-72 hours. Tarp the breach yourself if you can ($30 in materials + couple ladders) to minimize secondary water damage while you wait.
