Old homeplaces and mature shade
Older properties around Broussard often have big pecans, oaks and hackberries that have stood near the house for generations. Pecans are on the LSU AgCenter's list of trees with low wind resistance, and big, old trees tend to be stiffer and more brittle. A large pecan with dead limbs or a split crotch over the house is worth getting looked at before storm season.
Larger lots and field edges
On bigger lots and at the edge of cane fields there's often room to fell a tree or bring in a lift through the side yard. Tell the crew where any septic tank and drainfield are, since homes outside sewer service have them and heavy machines can crush them.
Which parish am I in?
If you're on the eastern edge of town, check whether your address is in St. Martin Parish, since that can change which offices you deal with for permits and debris pickup.
