Tree Removal Adelaide Cost

Most people think that hiring a tree lopper in Adelaide would be fairly straight forward.

Unfortunately it’s a bit of a mine field.

With unqualified labourers looking to cash in on the booming and lucrative tree removal industry, you can quite quickly find yourself forking out thousands in insurance premiums after a botched job.

It’s not too hard to imagine something going wrong when a tree being cut down. You have 3 – 4 tonnes of tree in a confined space in your yard or overhanging your house. This needs to be taken down in a safe and concise manor.

When considering tree removal Adelaide, most don’t think about exactly how the tree is going to be removed. As the saying goes, there is more than one way to skin a cat.

In most cases, you can’t just climb the tree and cut and drop branches where they hang.

When dealing with large trees in the confines of a standard Adelaide city block of land, the tree most likely overhands a shed, fence, your home or all three. Dropping branches or the entire tree can easily damage fences, pools and homes. You need a professionally trained in the field of arboriculture to carry out the job.

Furthermore, you also need to hire someone who’s able to work using the budget you’re comfortable with. If you’ve been holding off on a task because you’re worried about the overall tree removal in Adelaide cost, then your search is over, we have you covered.

All tree removal companies need to the correct insurance cover before walking on site to begin work. Any company we recommend is fully covered for a minimum of 10 million in public liability.

We have a look at the registered date of their business and made sure they have been in the game long enough to have acquired the experience needed to tackle any situation. You certainly don’t want a hack “practicing” on your tree on your property.

If they don’t have the experience, we don’t recommend them.

Allowing the tree service company great access, especially if the tree is in a hard to get to spot in your yard is critical in securing a good deal.

If they know they can get all their equipment nice and close, you are saving time in having to drag tree branches out to their truck manually. You will be rewarded with a cheaper price.

Tell your friendly tree lopper you would prefer to keep the timber for fire wood. Ask them for 2 prices, one to completely remove the tree and another to remove the tree and leave the timber for firewood.

You will find the second option will always be cheaper. Not only that, but you can profit on the timber by selling it on eBay. You won’t have to lift a finger.

Just take a photo of your fire logs and start an auction on eBay. People will pay through the nose for great hardwood and they will be more than happy to come and do the labour to come and pick it up.

It’s a win-win.

A big one is time of year.

Most tree service companies are pretty quiet in the off season (anywhere from late summer to early spring) you will find they are more than willing to slash prices just to win a job and keep busy until the spring and summer.

Waiting until the off season can save you upwards of 25% of the price of tree removal Adelaide.
