We don’t believe in guesswork, property damage, or hidden fees. Our platform handles the screening process for you, connecting your project with fully licensed, local arborist crews who operate daily in your specific North of the River (NOR) or South of the River (SOR) corridor.
Total financial protection for your assets. Every crew in our network maintains top-tier liability insurance to safeguard your home, fences, roofs, and neighboring structures during complex overhead rigging.
We navigate the regulatory minefield for you. Our partner teams operate in deep compliance with Western Australian environmental guidelines and individual local municipality tree preservation laws to eliminate your risk of heavy fines.
We respect your landscape. Our tree work isn’t finished until all heavy green waste is completely woodchipped, structural logs are hauled away, and your garden beds or lawns are meticulously swept clean.
No surprise travel fees, unannounced hourly stack-ons, or hidden cleanup markups. The fixed price delivered during your residential site walkthrough is exactly what you pay on your final invoice.
It depends entirely on your local council area and the physical size of the tree. Under WA's strict local tree preservation frameworks, many local governments now protect "significant" or native tree species based on trunk diameter and canopy size. If a tree is healthy, you may be required to submit a professional arborist report to justify its removal. Removing a protected or verge tree without a formal permit can result in significant municipal fines. We can help you check your local council's specific bylaws before scheduling any clearing work.
Every arborist in our network carries $20 million in comprehensive public liability insurance. Tree lopping and removal near suburban infrastructure require technical rigging, climbing expertise, and strict risk mitigation. Very cheap operators often completely lack insurance coverage, leaving you financially responsible if a branch damages your roof, fences, or a neighbour's property. We only work with arborists who hold up-to-date local insurance policies, so your home and property are fully covered against any unforeseen circumstances — regardless of which arborist in our network takes on the job.
Most arborists in our network include standard green waste removal in their quote — branches are chipped on-site and larger timber is either removed or, if you'd prefer to keep it for firewood, left stacked at your request. If you have specific requirements (keeping a section of trunk, mulch left on-site for garden beds), just mention it when you get your quote — it's a simple adjustment most local arborists are happy to make.
Pricing depends on a handful of practical factors: the tree's height and trunk diameter, how accessible it is (tight side access, proximity to fences or powerlines, steep or restricted yards all add complexity), whether stump grinding is included, how the waste is removed, and whether council permit paperwork is required. Emergency or storm-damage callouts also typically carry a premium due to urgency. This is why an accurate quote requires an on-site look rather than a price over the phone — the arborist you're matched with will confirm exact costs once they've seen the job.
If you're renting, tree removal generally requires your landlord's written permission, regardless of council approval — it's considered a permanent change to the property. If a tree sits on a neighbour's property but overhangs your yard, you may be able to trim branches back to the boundary line yourself in some circumstances, but cutting into the main tree, removing it entirely, or anything affecting a protected or significant tree usually requires the tree owner's consent and possibly council sign-off. Because this varies by council and individual circumstances, we'd recommend checking with your local council or a property lawyer before proceeding if there's any uncertainty — we're happy to help you think through the practical side, but can't give legal advice on ownership disputes.
Any vegetation work near powerlines in WA is tightly regulated — only accredited line-clearance arborists are permitted to work within prescribed clearance distances of powerlines, and this isn't something a general tree service or a DIY job can safely or legally handle. Western Power manages vegetation clearance around powerlines directly in many cases. If your tree is near power infrastructure, let us know when you request your quote — we'll match you with an arborist qualified for powerline-adjacent work specifically, rather than a general residential arborist.
