Does an ash (green and white ash) drop a lot of debris?
While alive, seed-bearing female ash drop dense mats of paddle-shaped samaras that pack gutters and reseed beds. The complaint that actually generates calls now is different: dead ash shed bark plates and dry limb wood continuously year-round, so homeowners describe finding sticks all over the yard every week — that is a diagnosis, not a maintenance issue.
How much tree is dropping it
Green and white ash mature at roughly 50-80 ft tall with 40-60 ft spreads, and healthy trees lived well past a century before EAB arrived. Removal brackets high for the size because dead ash usually cannot be climbed — many companies refuse to climb one dead more than about six months — so bucket or crane access, not trunk diameter, sets the price.
