Hi Theodore, yes, at least where I live, you can cut trees that hang over your own property as long as you don’t damage the whole tree. Of course, it would be better if you talked it over with your neighbor first. When we have been in that situation, we have offered to do the cutting ourselves to make sure that our trees are not harmed. The neighbors generally seem to appreciate it.

Once we had a neighbor who complained about a patch of bamboo that was on both sides of the fence. Because they were relatively new, they didn’t know that the bamboo actually started in their own yard. We had no objections to them trying to get rid of it. We had been fighting it for years.
