Tree Removal Sydney — safe, insured tree & dangerous tree removal
Safe, insured tree removal — done properly.
True Roots removes trees of every size across Sydney — from a small backyard tree to large, dangerous and storm-damaged removals near houses, fences and powerlines. AQF Level 5 arborists, $20M insurance, the right machinery, and a fixed price with the site left clean.
Removing a tree safely is about planning, not just cutting. We assess access, what’s below the canopy and how the tree needs to come down, then rig and lower it in sections where needed to protect your property and your neighbours.
Every quote is clear and fixed — no vague estimates. We handle council requirements and arborist reports where they’re needed, remove the timber and debris, and can grind the stump and tidy the area so you get the space back ready to use.
Every tree, every situation.

How much does tree removal cost in Sydney?
It depends on the tree’s size and species, access, what’s below it (roofs, fences, powerlines) and whether you want the stump out. Small trees start low; large or high-risk removals cost more. We give you a clear fixed price up front — free — after a quick look or a few photos.
Do I need council approval to remove a tree?
Often yes. Most Sydney councils protect trees over a certain size unless they’re an exempt species or within an exempt distance of a building. We’ll tell you whether you need approval and an arborist report, and we can handle the application for you.
Can you remove dangerous or storm-damaged trees urgently?
Yes — we offer 24/7 emergency tree removal across Sydney for fallen, split or hazardous trees. If there’s immediate danger to people or property, call us straight away.
Do you remove the stump and clean up?
Yes. We remove all timber and debris, can grind the stump below ground level, and leave the area raked and ready for turf, garden or paving.
