Tree Removal in Perth for less

Updated: 24 February 2020

Tree removal in Perth can be expensive. The average cost of tree removal last year was $1,250, with the real range more like $250 to $4,300.

The cost does not just depend on the size of the tree, access, time of year and which tree services you get prices off have a huge baring.

Follow a few simple steps below and you’ll be able to get the work done for far less.

Search criteria

What most people do is either an internet search, or look in the local paper for a local tree service.

They choose three random companies and call them up and invite them out to quote the job.

Once they have their quotes, they will choose the cheapest one and book the successful tree service in.

Problem: Companies at the top of search results are spending lots of money to be seen first. Because they spend so much marketing to be at the top of yellow page, Google, True Local and Yelp, they also need to charge more and pass those costs onto the customer.

Saving Trick #1: Go to pages 2 and 3 of Google results. These companies are just as good as the ones on page 1, but don’t spend so much on marketing. They will give a cheaper price.

Pricing tree pruning or removal isn’t something you can really do over the phone or with a picture. It can be even more challenging trying to price your job in an article without even seeing the tree in question. We do give you a pretty good ball park figure to go off though.

But the end of the day, you will need to bite the bullet at some point and get local tree services out to view the job and give a firm price.

There is just no other way to go about it.

WHEN is tree removal cheap

Outdoor services like lawn care, landscaping and tree removal are all seasonal. There is a lot less work on in the cooler months than in spring and summer.

The reason is less people are in their yards, entertaining and even thinking about these types of services.

Supply an demand: When there is more demand then the supply of tree service can keep up with, they will charge higher prices. This is normally done when they have 3 – 4 weeks worth of work booked in advance. They literally don’t need your work so will start naming their price.

Saving trick #2: Hire int eh winter months. When there is little work on, they supply/ demand paradigm shifts in your favor with tree services short on work they are falling over each other to win your work. Prices always fall. Just like booking a hotel in the off season, you can expect to save 20% minimum.

But if the tree is “endangering lives” then you have a better chance of getting approval. If approval is still denied, you can get the opinion of an arborist who will write up an arborist report that you can submit with your second application.

Can I ask council to cut back my tree?

If the tree is on your property, then you are responsible for the pruning work. If the tree is on council land you can ask them to trim it. But only if it is encroaching on your land or blocking light to solar panels.
