Enterprise firepower.
Local roots.

ArborOne isn’t a roll-up. It’s a build-up.

Regional powerhouses

ArborOne is built around leading local brands. Each one is among the best tree care companies in its market.

Markets run by the people who built them

Not because the business needs a babysitter. Because the business is better with them guiding it. Founders and their teams stay the heart and soul of the brands they built.

Growing each brand from the inside

Behind every brand, we invest in people, equipment, and technology, and we fold strong local companies into the family. The teams stay. The service gets better.

Dru Heinz, CEO of ArborOne

Why we created ArborOne

“Owners in this industry spend decades building real businesses. Real crews, real reputations, real communities. Then they get to the table and find out what’s waiting for them: buyers who see crews as line items and legacies as rebranding opportunities.

We created ArborOne to be the alternative. Committed capital, simple terms, and an employee-first promise we’ve kept in every deal we’ve done. If the right buyer doesn’t exist, you build the alternative.

Dru Heinz, CEO of ArborOne

We don’t just acquire companies.
We unlock what’s next for them.

Tech Transformation

We build our own technology in-house, by people who run tree care companies, not vendors guessing. It gives our companies an unfair advantage against the competition.

Organic Growth

Most tree care companies sit on untapped demand, missed cross-sell opportunities, and capacity constraints. We work with owners to identify and unlock that value.

Tuck-In M&A

Most owners approach acquisitions opportunistically, constrained by capital and the capacity to integrate. We help source, evaluate, close, and integrate the right opportunities.

Branding & Marketing

We bring professional brand and lead-generation expertise to our companies: clarifying positioning, strengthening presence, and turning visibility into revenue.

The Tech Advantage

Software built by tree guys.
Not by people guessing.

Most owners run their business across a pile of disconnected tools: an industry CRM like SingleOps, ArboStar, or Jobber, plus QuickBooks, plus a payroll provider, plus the spreadsheets that glue it all together. Every system speaks a different language, and none of them was built for the way your crews actually work.

Our platform is different. It’s built in-house by people who run tree care companies every day. And because it’s our own, we tweak it to work exactly for your processes, not the other way around.

What We Look For

Characteristics of an ArborOne company

We’re not for everyone, and that’s the point. Our partners share a few traits in common…

Strong Local Brand

You're a household name in your service area. The phone rings because of who you are, not what you spend on ads. Reputation is your moat.

$1.5M+ of Revenue

Established, profitable, and ready for the next gear. We invest in companies that have already proven the model. Not turnarounds or startups.

Deep Teams

Crews and managers who are bought in and loyal. We invest where capable people are already running great operations.

Have you built a local powerhouse? You don’t need a buyer.
You need a force multiplier.
