How much does tree removal cost in Westbury?

Tree removal costs depend on size, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $300-800. Medium trees 30-60 feet range from $800-1500. Large trees over 60 feet or those near structures can cost $1500-3000 or more. Emergency removal after storms often costs more due to increased danger and urgency. The best approach is getting a free estimate based on your specific situation rather than trying to guess from online averages.
Westbury requires permits for removing certain trees, particularly those over specific sizes or in protected areas. The town has regulations about removing healthy trees versus diseased or dangerous ones. Street trees definitely require permits and often can’t be removed by property owners. We know local requirements and can help determine if permits are needed. Getting caught removing trees without proper permits can result in significant fines, so it’s worth checking first.
We typically handle emergency tree removal within 24 hours for dangerous situations like trees on houses or blocking critical access. Less urgent storm damage might take 2-3 days depending on the number of calls. Priority goes to situations involving safety hazards, blocked roads, or damaged structures. Having our number before storms hit helps you get on the schedule faster. We maintain emergency crews specifically for storm response, but demand always spikes after severe weather hits the area.
Professional tree removal minimizes lawn and landscape damage through proper technique and equipment. Heavy machinery might leave some tire marks or compaction, but our experienced crews know how to protect your property. We place mats under equipment when necessary. Debris gets carried out rather than dragged across lawns. Some minor damage is sometimes unavoidable with large tree removal, but we repair obvious issues like ruts or damaged sprinkler heads as part of the cleanup process.
DIY tree removal is extremely dangerous and often costs more than hiring professionals when things go wrong. Falling trees can kill people, destroy houses, crush cars, and take out power lines. Homeowner’s insurance might not cover damage from DIY tree work gone wrong. We carry liability insurance specifically for this work. We have proper equipment, training, and experience to handle trees safely. The cost difference between professional removal and potential property damage makes hiring experts the smart financial choice.
We remove all wood and debris as part of the job unless you request otherwise. Some customers want firewood from their trees, which we can usually cut and stack for you. Large logs might have value for lumber or woodworking if the tree species and condition are right. We recycle wood through local mills or composting facilities rather than sending it to landfills. If you have specific plans for the wood, discuss this during the estimate so our crew can prepare it according to your needs.
