Professional Palm Tree Removal by Qualified Arborists
Our qualified arborists specialise in difficult and high-risk palm tree removal, including palms located close to homes, fences, pools, sheds, and power lines.
Palm trees require a very different removal approach to traditional trees. Their height, weight distribution, and fibrous trunks can make removal dangerous if not handled correctly.
Our Palm Tree Removal Service

Overgrown or Unstable Palm Trees
Dead or Dying Palms
Palm Trees Causing Root or Foundation Issues
Storm Damaged Palm Trees

FAQS
-
All councils have slightly different regulations so it's always a good idea to double check. Generally, if you have a palm or tree within 3m of a building or fence line, you're allowed to remove it without going through a council approval process. In addition, councils have a list of invasive species which you're able to remove without approval, such as the Cocos (Queen) Palm.
-
Absolutely. We regularly work on larger hinterland properties and challenging terrain using climbing-based techniques.
-
Firstly, a palm is actually not a tree! They're more like monocots, meaning they're more closely related to grass. Generally, they're quite easy to remove, aside from a few select species, such as (but not limited to) Phoenix Palms, which have large, dangerous spikes, and Royal Cubans, which have a very hard exterior requiring additional techniques and care for safe removal.
-
Tree removal can range from $150 to more than $10,000. Generally you can expect to pay between $1,500–$3,500 for a tree starting to, or already towering over your house. Ways to reduce cost would include retaining any logs on your property or opting to do some clean up yourself.
