Serving Simms, Montana
Simms is the Sun River valley town west of Great Falls on MT-200, built on the low ground the Sun River Irrigation Project watered after 1906.
Local & Insured
Simms is a community of about 360 people in Cascade County, Montana, 35.0 road miles and about 43 minutes west of Great Falls on MT-200, among the buttes and benches of the Sun River valley. Its low spot suited irrigation, and the Sun River Irrigation Project begun in 1906 turned it into grain and hay country.
The name comes from Simms Creek, which joins the Sun River about a mile west of town and was named for two brothers who cut wood along the river. Willow and cottonwood line the river, creek and canals, green ash, boxelder and Siberian elm fill the town lots, and caragana and Russian olive edge the fields.


Removal, stumps, trimming and clearing for the town and the irrigated farms at the west end of the Sun River valley.

Wind-thrown, snow-broken, dead or leaning trees taken down in sections and hauled off the same day, with boulevard and elm-wood rules sorted first. See the full details, including typical pricing →

Stumps ground below grade so the lawn comes back. Old cottonwood and boxelder roots run wide here, so we check for sprinkler lines before we grind. See the full details, including typical pricing →

Deadwood, hazard limbs and snow-load thinning on boxelders and Siberian elms, plus sidewalk and street clearance. We do not top trees. See the full details, including typical pricing →

Shelterbelt rows, benchland juniper, river-bottom brush and acreage lots cleared, with burn permits and chip-or-haul decided up front. See the full details, including typical pricing →
Why a Great Falls Crew Comes to Simms
Simms is the west end of our Sun River route and still our home county, so there is no trip charge. It pairs with Fort Shaw and Sun River estimates.
Trees on the ditches and the river here root shallow in wet ground and lean toward the water. We work them from the dry side, and the canal keeps running.
Decades-old caragana and Russian olive rows between Simms fields are thinning. Ramon clears the dead stretch with the skid steer, and the live row stays as a windbreak.
Simms has no town office, so your own tree is your decision and no boulevard rule applies. Burning a brush pile starts with a Clerk and Recorder permit, or we chip and haul.
City boulevard, burning and town-office rules: see our permits page.
