Why Perth Homeowners Trust our Network
The Vetted Network Standard
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.
Safety first, everytime
Tree lopping and removal are inherently high-risk tasks. Every partner crew in our network is fully insured with a minimum of $20M in public liability coverage, giving you total peace of mind while heavy limbs are being rigged over your roofs, fences, or swimming pools.
Strict Local Council Compliance
Perth municipal councils enforce heavy penalties for illegal or excessive tree clearing. Our partners stay updated on environmental rules across all major WA districts—from Joondalup to Mandurah—to handle your project legally and safely.
Meticulous Site Cleanups
We treat your home with the respect it deserves. Our crews don’t pack up their trucks until all heavy logs are hauled away, branches are woodchipped, and your garden beds, driveways, and lawns are swept spotless.
100% Upfront, Fixed Quotes
No hidden travel surcharges, surprise green waste disposal fees, or unannounced hourly additions. The price agreed upon during your local site walkthrough is the exact number you will see on your final invoice.

fREQUENTLY ASKED qUESTIONS
Do I need council permit to remove or lop a tree in Perth?
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.
How much liability insurance do you carry?
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.
What do you do with the wood and waste after cutting down a tree?
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.
What factors affect the cost of tree removal or tree lopping in Perth?
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.
Can I cut down a tree on my property if I rent or if it belongs to a neighbour?
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.
What are the rules regarding tree trimming near Perth powerlines?
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.
