Not to mention, anything that makes removing trees more difficult will cost more. This includes sloped yards, rocky or muddy soil, an angled trunk, or weak branches. If it’s risky to access or fell the tree—for example, if the tree is near power lines or close to your house or other buildings—you might get charged an extra 50% for tree removal.
In these cases, special machinery like cranes must be used to keep the falling tree from hitting surrounding structures. For jobs that require a crane, expect to add at least $500 to the tree removal price.
Finally, many areas require you to purchase a permit to remove a tree taller than 10 feet. While the cost of a permit is relatively low—approximately between $60 and $150—failing to get one before beginning work could net you a more substantial fine later in the process.
