Commercial Christmas Tower Trees, Installed Across Virginia
A commercial Christmas tower tree is a large, lit display tree, 12 to 52 feet tall, built for shopping centers, town greens, hotels, campuses and churches. Lights Around supplies, installs, maintains, removes and stores tower trees across Central and Northern Virginia as a full-season rental, so you never buy or store the tree.

A Centerpiece People Drive Across Town to See
A tower tree is the piece that turns a parking lot into a destination. You pick the height and the look; we handle everything from the delivery truck to the January takedown, and the tree lives in our warehouse the rest of the year rather than in your storage unit.
Shopping Centers
Pull evening traffic and give shoppers a reason to stay.
Towns & Greens
Build a tree-lighting night around it.
Hotels, Wineries & Churches
The one thing everyone photographs and posts.
Choosing a Height for Your Site
Short answer: choose by sightline, not budget. Most shopping centers and town greens land at 20 to 30 feet; courtyards and entrances suit 12 to 16 feet; open greens and large retail centers need 35 to 52 feet. A tree that is too short reads as an afterthought; too tall for its footprint looks crowded and can be a wind problem.
| Height | Best for | Viewed from | Planning notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12–16 ft | Hotel entrances, churches, restaurant patios, tall lobbies | 30–40 ft, eye level | Modest footprint, straightforward power |
| 20–30 ft | Shopping centers, town greens, HOA clubhouses, business parks | Across a parking lot | The workhorse range; fits most plazas |
| 35–52 ft | Open greens, large retail centers, campus quads, municipal squares | The road and a distance | Site planning, power and anchoring in advance; books first |
Not sure which fits? Send us a photo of the space and rough dimensions and we’ll tell you honestly what will look right. Our photo gallery has installations at several of these scales.
RGB, Warm White, or Decorated
Three looks, and the choice usually comes down to how the tree will be used. You can combine them (warm white body with a lit star, or RGB with decorated lower tiers), and we’ll mock it up before you commit.
Color-Changing RGB
Every section is programmable: red and green in December, brand colors for events, team colors on game night, nightly animated shows. Towns and shopping centers usually choose this.
Classic Warm White
Clean and timeless. The safer choice for historic districts, churches and properties where animation feels out of place.
Unlit & Decorated
Oversized ornaments and ribbon instead of light. Works for daytime-traffic properties and indoor atriums.
What's Included
Every tower tree installation covers the full cycle. You don’t buy the tree, store the tree, or find somewhere to put it in February. That’s why most of our commercial customers renew year after year rather than purchasing.
- Delivery to your site
- Assembly and installation by our crew
- Anchoring and ballasting for your site and height
- Electrical connection and controller setup
- Programming, scheduled scenes and color changes (RGB)
- In-season maintenance: if a section goes dark, we come out
- Takedown and removal in January
- Off-season storage in our warehouse
Site Requirements, Power and Anchoring
This is the section most vendors skip, so here’s the straight version. We check all of it on the site visit rather than discovering it on installation day.
Power
Tower trees do not run on a single household circuit. Depending on height and RGB, an install may need multiple dedicated 20-amp circuits or a panel tie-in, and larger trees often need a licensed electrician for the final connection. Our power assessment tells you exactly what's required before you commit.
Anchoring
On soft ground we anchor into grade. On asphalt, concrete plazas and rooftop terraces we use non-penetrating ballast. Larger trees are guyed. Every install is engineered for that site's wind exposure.
Footprint & Access
Clear ground for the base, working room around it during install, and a route for the delivery vehicle and lift.
Insurance & COI
Commercial liability coverage, with a certificate of insurance naming your organization as additional insured, turned around quickly for procurement.
What It Costs and When to Book
Short answer: nationally, a fully decorated, professionally installed 20-foot commercial tree runs upward of $10,000, and larger tower sizes go well beyond that. Cost is driven by height first, then RGB vs. warm white, then decoration level, site complexity and how long it stays up.
Every project starts with a site visit and a written proposal covering the tree, installation, power, maintenance, removal and storage as one number. No surprise line items in December.
Spring – Summer
Best time to start. Fits municipal and retail budget cycles.
30 ft and up
Start in spring or early summer. Large inventory is limited.
By October
Large sizes are usually committed.
Who We Install For
- Shopping centers & retail plazas
- Town & county governments
- HOAs & residential communities
- Hotels & resorts
- Hospitals & campuses
- Churches
- Wineries & event venues
- Corporate campuses & business parks
A tower tree usually anchors a larger scheme. We also build giant Christmas light displays, oversized holiday light figures and walk-through tunnel light structures. The full range is on our commercial lighting page. For lighting year-round, permanent lighting puts a controllable system on the building once.
Where We Install Tower Trees
We deliver and install throughout Central and Northern Virginia from our warehouse in Locust Grove. See all service areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should we book?
For 12 to 20 foot trees, a few months is usually enough. For 30 feet and above, start in spring or early summer. Large-size inventory is limited and it commits early.
How long does installation take?
Smaller trees go up in a day. Larger tower trees take two or more days depending on height, decoration and site access. We schedule around your operating hours so we’re not blocking customer traffic.
Do we need an electrician?
Sometimes. Smaller trees often work off existing exterior power. Larger RGB trees frequently need dedicated circuits or a panel connection, and we’ll tell you which situation you’re in after the site visit.
What happens if something fails mid-season?
We come out and fix it. In-season maintenance is included, which is the main reason properties rent rather than buy a purchased tree with a dead section in mid-December becomes your problem.
Can the tree run our brand colors?
Yes, on RGB trees. We program scenes and schedules, so the tree can run holiday colors most of the season and switch for a specific event or campaign.
Can we use it for a tree-lighting ceremony?
Yes, and we’ll build the sequence for it. Tell us the date and we’ll program the reveal and be on site to run it.
Who stores it?
We do. The tree comes down in January and goes back to our warehouse. You store nothing.
Do you provide a certificate of insurance?
Yes. See our insurance page or ask us during the quote.
Start Your Commercial Tree Project
Tell us the site, the height you’re picturing, and roughly when you need it lit. We’ll do a site visit, confirm power and anchoring, and send a written proposal covering the whole season. Our light will delight: on a commercial project that means the tree is lit on the night you said, and stays lit. Read more about Lights Around.
