Tree Removal in Perth

When a tree is dead, diseased, storm-damaged or simply growing too close to your home, removing it is often the safest option. San's Tree Service removes trees of all sizes across the Perth metro - from small backyard trees to large gums overhanging roofs and power lines.

What's included

Every removal includes an on-site assessment, the removal itself, and a full clean-up. We cut the tree down in sections where space is tight, lower limbs carefully to protect what's below, and chip or cart away the debris.

Our process

We start with a free on-site quote so we can see access, hazards and how close the tree is to structures. On the day we set up exclusion zones, protect fences, paving and gardens, and work down from the top - rigging and lowering larger limbs rather than dropping them. Once the tree is down we process the timber, clear the site and do a final tidy-up.

What it costs

As a rough guide for Perth in 2026, small trees run about $300-$800, medium trees $800-$2,500, and large gums or trees near power lines $2,500-$6,000+. A standard suburban gum removal typically averages around $1,500-$3,000. Treat these as starting points - two trees of the same height can differ by thousands depending on access and what's around them.

The main cost factors are the tree's height and trunk size, the species, access for equipment, and proximity to buildings, fences and power lines. Because every tree is different, we give a free, fixed written quote with no call-out fee - not a vague hourly rate. For a full breakdown see our tree removal cost guide.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need council approval to remove a tree in Perth?

Some Perth councils protect significant, native or verge (street) trees and require approval before removal. We can advise whether your tree is likely affected before you commit. See our guide on whether you can cut down a tree in Perth.

Do you remove the stump too?

Removal leaves the stump at ground level by default. We also offer stump grinding to take it below the surface so you can re-turf or replant.
