Frequently Asked Questions
As a rough guide, assuming decent access: a tree of about 8–12 metres, fully removed including the stump, runs around $1,100–$1,200 plus GST; a 12–17 metre tree about $2,000–$2,500 plus GST; and a big tree over 19 metres with tight access and heavy chipping $4,000–$5,000 plus GST. The big drivers are access (whether our EWP can reach or the tree has to be climbed), how close it is to buildings and power lines, and how much you want taken away. We do free on-site quotes — Charlie or Dylan will come out and price the job before any work starts.
It depends on your local council, the species, and whether the tree is protected (Significant Tree Register, native vegetation overlay, or heritage listing). Most non-significant residential trees on private land in Latrobe City and Wellington Shire don't require a permit, but South Gippsland and Bass Coast have stricter native vegetation rules. We can prepare an arborist report for council if a permit is required.
Most single-tree residential jobs are completed in a single day — from arrival to a tidied site with mulched debris removed. Larger or more complex jobs (multiple trees, restricted crane access, power line proximity) may take two to three days. Storm-damage emergency work is often turned around within hours.
Yes — stump grinding is offered as part of the tree removal quote. We grind to 200mm-300mm below ground level so you can re-turf or replant. If you only need the stump done (the tree is already gone), we offer stand-alone stump grinding too.
Call us straight away on 1800 GO TREES. We carry the equipment for hazardous tree work — truck-mounted EWP access, crane support where needed, and the experience to drop dangerous limbs without damage to property. After-hours and storm emergencies are part of what we do.
Yes. We carry $20M public liability and full workers compensation. We will provide a Certificate of Currency on request, which most strata managers and commercial clients require before approving the job.
All our climbing and ground crew hold the relevant arboriculture qualifications (Cert III in Arboriculture for climbing arborists, plus current chainsaw, EWP, and chipper tickets). For court-required arborist reports and tree-protection management plans we have AQF Level 5 consulting arborists on staff.
Yes — site cleanup is included in every quote unless you specifically ask us to leave the timber for firewood. We chip all small material on-site and remove it. Large logs are removed unless you want them retained.
Gippsland: the Latrobe Valley (Traralgon, Morwell, Moe, Newborough, Churchill), Baw Baw (Warragul, Drouin, Longwarry, Trafalgar, Yarragon, Walhalla, Neerim South, Noojee, Jindivick), South Gippsland (Leongatha, Korumburra, Mirboo North, Foster, Nyora, Venus Bay) and Wellington Shire (Sale, Maffra, Heyfield, Rosedale, Stratford, Yarram, Woodside).
Yes. AQF Level 5 arborist reports for development applications, tree-protection management plans, hazard assessments, and Significant Tree Register submissions. The report is suitable for submission to all Victorian councils.
What a tree removal actually costs
Most tree companies won't talk about price, and that's exactly why we will. The number almost always comes down to access — how close we can get the truck, the chipper and the machinery to the tree. Give us a clear run at it and the job moves quickly; put a narrow side gate, a tree hard over the house, or a long drag for the chipper in the way and it takes more time and more gear.
So it's easiest to talk in scenarios. A straightforward removal of a small-to-medium tree with good access starts around $1,100–$1,200 plus GST. A larger tree in the 12–17 metre range with good access is more like $2,000–$2,500 plus GST. And a big 19-metre-plus tree with tight access and heavy chipping can run $4,000–$5,000 plus GST. Those all assume we can get the gear reasonably close — a crane pick over a house, or grinding the stump at the same time, will move the number. For the tallest and most awkward jobs we can bring a 42-metre platform, which reaches where a climber and a smaller tower can't. The quote is always free and we work it out on site.
