Based in Moss Vale, we cover the whole Southern Highlands region of New South Wales with our tree removal, yard clearing and stump grinding services—all the way from Goulburn to Wollondilly.
Yes, we do. Our process is to go up in a cherry picker and cut the tree down in sections so that there’s no danger of a large tree falling. This process also makes the tree easier to handle when deciding what next to do with it.
We can remove the tree from your property, or if you prefer we can use a woodchipper to recycle it into mulch.
Not only that, but our access to machinery allows us to take on trees that are in limited-access or awkward places.
If a tree has fallen into your yard, it can be hard to remove as one solid item. If this has happened, we’ll come to you with a similar process used when removing an upright tree.
Not only that, we can also grind the stump to provide a flat and obstruction-free space to landscape again.
In some instances, yes, you will need council permission to remove certain trees. It can be difficult to identify which trees you might need permission to remove and which don’t. Trees on council property often can’t be removed unless they pose a risk, and native and protected Australian trees need to be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Our experienced team can assist you with identifying trees that need council permits and applying for tree removal.
