Tree Removal Cost Calculators
Use the main tree removal calculator for broad estimates, then choose a specialized calculator for palm trees, stump grinding, hedge and shrub removal, or fallen tree cleanup.
Main Tool
Tree Removal Cost Calculator
Estimate full tree removal by height, diameter, species, access, stump grinding, emergency work, hazards, debris hauling, and pricing market.
Palm Removal Tool
Palm Tree Removal Cost Calculator
Estimate palm tree removal cost with palm-specific inputs for height, species, frond cleanup, trunk hauling, stump grinding, access, and regional pricing.
Landscape Removal Tool
Shrub, Hedge and Bush Removal Cost Calculator
Estimate hedge removal cost per linear foot and shrub or bush removal cost per plant, including root ball removal, hauling, thorn/poison ivy premiums, and access difficulty.
Stump Pricing Tool
Stump Grinding Cost Calculator
Estimate stump grinding and stump removal cost by diameter, stump count, wood type, root complexity, grind depth, hauling, and access.
Storm Cleanup Tool
Fallen Tree Removal Cost Calculator
Estimate fallen, downed, storm-damaged, and emergency tree removal cost by scenario, size, urgency, hauling, and extraction difficulty.
Tree Appraisal Tool
Trunk Formula Method Tree Value Calculator
Estimate a landscape tree's appraised dollar value with the CTLA Trunk Formula approach — replacement cost, trunk-area increment, species rating, condition, and location — the framework professional appraisers use for insurance and legal valuations.
Which Calculator Should You Use?
Start with the main calculator for any standing tree you want taken down. Reach for a specialised tool when the job has a single dominant cost driver that the general model would smooth over — a fibrous palm trunk that cannot be chipped, a stump priced by the inch, a hedge priced by the linear foot, or a tree that is already on the ground.
| Your situation | Use this tool | Because |
|---|---|---|
| A standing tree you want removed | Main tree removal calculator | Height and trunk diameter drive the price; everything else is a modifier |
| The tree is already down after a storm | Fallen tree calculator | Where it landed matters more than how tall it was, and emergency timing carries a premium |
| Only the stump is left | Stump grinding calculator | Priced per inch of root flare against a fixed trip charge, not by tree size |
| A palm of any size | Palm tree calculator | Palm trunks are fibrous, cannot be chipped, and are priced by species and trunk height |
| A hedge run or a row of shrubs | Hedge & shrub calculator | Priced by linear foot or per bush, not per trunk |
| You need the tree's value, not its removal cost | Trunk formula calculator | CTLA appraisal for insurance claims, tax deductions, and neighbour disputes |
How to Read Any Estimate on This Site
It is a band, not a price
Every tool returns a range rather than a single figure, because real quotes for the same job routinely differ by 30% depending on a crew's schedule, travel distance, and appetite for the work. Treat the low end as a light week and the high end as peak storm season.
The line items are the point
The total is less useful than the breakdown beneath it. Mobilization, cutting labour, hauling, and access premiums are the four things contractors bundle differently, and seeing them separately is what lets you ask why one quote is $600 higher than another.
Nothing is stored or sold
No calculator asks for an email address, and none of your inputs reach our servers. We do not sell leads or take referral fees, so there is no commercial reason for these numbers to be optimistic.
Every estimate here is modelled, not surveyed — built from published contractor rates, crew and equipment economics, rental schedules, and regional cost differentials. The methodology is documented in full, and none of it replaces an on-site assessment by an insured professional.
