Pricing Factors

What Affects the Cost

Tree size and height

A 20-foot ornamental tree takes less time and fewer cuts than a 70-foot silver maple. Taller trees also require more gear and more experienced climbers to do the job safely.

Number of branches to remove

Light canopy thinning on a healthy tree is faster than removing a dozen large deadwood limbs from a tree that hasn't been touched in 20 years.

Access for equipment

If a bucket truck can park close to the tree, the job goes faster. Older neighborhoods with narrow lots and fences — like many streets in Greece or the East Side — sometimes mean more hand-climbing, which takes longer.

Proximity to the house or power lines

Branches over a roof or near a utility line have to come down in sections instead of being dropped. That takes more time and more precision.

Debris hauling

Some homeowners want chips left for mulch and logs cut for firewood, which can reduce hauling time. Full removal of all debris takes longer and may affect the total cost.
