Frequently Asked Questions

Most professional tree service companies, including us, typically price jobs on a per-project basis rather than hourly. This is because the total cost depends on many factors, not just time. However, to give a general idea, the cost can range from $200 to over $2,000 for a full crew with equipment. The final price for a tree removal job is determined by the tree’s size, location, accessibility, health, and the specific risks involved. We provide a firm, free estimate so you know the full cost upfront.

A tree removal cost of around $1,000 typically applies to a medium-to-large tree (e.g., 40-60 feet tall) with moderate complexity. For example, a mature pine tree in a backyard with reasonable access for equipment, but close enough to a fence or shed to require careful, section-by-section lowering (roping) of limbs, might fall into this price range. If the tree requires a crane or is in a very tight spot near power lines, the cost would likely be higher.

The cheapest time of year for tree removal and other tree maintenance is typically during the late fall and winter. This is the off-season for most tree care companies, as demand slows down after the summer and before spring growth. During these dormant months, companies may offer better pricing to keep their crews busy. However, emergency tree service needs due to winter storms are an exception and are prioritized based on urgency.

We price a tree job by conducting a thorough on-site assessment. A certified arborist evaluates several key factors: 1) Size & Type: The height, diameter, and species of the tree. 2) Condition: Is the tree healthy, dead, or diseased? Dead trees can be more dangerous and unpredictable. 3) Location & Accessibility: Is the tree near structures, power lines, or fences? Can we get our bucket truck and other equipment to it easily? 4) Risk: The overall danger involved for the crew and your property. 5) Scope of Work: Does the job include just tree felling, or also limb removal, wood chipping, and stump grinding? Based on these factors, we calculate the time, crew size, and equipment needed to complete the job safely and provide a comprehensive, all-inclusive quote.
