Cost of Tree Removal Service

TREE REMOVAL COST

Tree removal will cost you money. However, you should really take it as an investment, and not a liability. After all, the cost for tree removal is much cheaper compared to the amount you will pay for repair costs when your house gets damaged because of a fallen tree. How do professional tree removal companies compute the cost for different tree services? What factors need to be considered when determining the cost of tree removal? Knowing the answer to these critical questions will help you make an informed decision regarding your tree.

Most of the time, tree removal will involve climbing and cutting the tree into smaller parts for easier removal. These steps are the usual inclusions for a basic tree removal package. You should remember that not all tree contractors will take care of the debris and tree limbs. Some will do, but for an additional price.

We have also come up with a list of services that may require additional fees.

• Stump removal- Most tree removal services don't include stump removal in their package. If you don't want an ugly stump to sit in the middle of your yard, you have to be ready with extra cash.
• Limb chipping- You have a choice whether you want limbs chipped or hauled away. Tree companies usually have chippers with them, and if it is not included in the pricing, it usually costs $100 for this service.
• Tree trunk removal- Tree companies will typically chop the trunk off to smaller parts, but they do not usually haul those sections away. You may need to pay an additional $100 for them to do that for you.

• Log splitting- If you want to save some wood for firewood, prepare an extra $75 on top of the tree removal amount.

How much will it cost to remove my tree?
After knowing the additional fees for other tree services, let's talk about the cost for the actual tree removal. The value for tree removal depends on the size of the tree, so you can expect that the larger the tree, the higher the price gets.

• Large tree removal ($1,500)- A reputable company will not charge less than a $1,000 for large tree removal because of the labor and equipment that needs to be used in completing the job. If you encounter a tree company that offers tree removal for a bargain, think again because you might fall victim for a scam.
• Fallen tree removal ($150)- Removing a fallen tree is not as simple as you think. It has its own challenges that should be handled by a professional. You can ask the company if they will chip the wood into smaller pieces or if they will haul them away.
• Tree branch removal ($300)- There are times when your tree doesn't need to be removed entirely. If what your tree needs is branch removal, the tree company can do it for you. It can be crucial to remove a branch that interferes with a power line, and you might need to get in touch with your utility service for assistance.
