How Much Does it Cost to Remove a Tree?

 The cost to remove a tree varies according the following variables.  Each variable will be assessed by your tree service in Birmingham.  Just know that tree company's rates may vary making the same tree a different price to remove depending on the company quote.

Size

The larger and higher the tree, the more time consuming and difficult it will be to remove.  Consequently, the amount of labor to remove a larger, taller tree will be more driving the price higher.   

Location

A tree out in the open, without any risk to potentially damage property structure, power lines, etc., will be easier to remove and require less, or even no, equipment.  A tree near property structure and/or power lines will have to be removed more carefully driving up labor costs as well as potentially equipment costs, such as a bucket truck.  

Species
​
Single trunked trees are easier to removed than multi-trunk trees.  This is because multi-trunked trees tend to lean around from the central axis of the tree making removal potentially more complex.  

Dead or Alive

While not a significant factor, it can come into play if a dead tree is apt to break unnaturally as it is removed.   Significant decay can sometime cause a tree to be hazardous to nearby property structures as well as our staff members thereby requiring us to take extra precautions when removing.

Summary

Generally tree removal will range from as little as $400 to potentially well over $2,000 for the most complex, difficult to remove trees.  Tree removal Birmingham trusts has been our company's motto since our founding in 2002.  Call us for a free, often same day, estimate for all your tree care needs.
