How this estimate works

This calculator applies national planning rates to the project details you enter, then uses a broad state cost adjustment. It shows a range because contractor pricing, site access, permits, disposal, materials and local demand vary.

Estimated cost = size-based removal × condition factor × access factor + stump grinding + hauling, adjusted by state.

Example estimate

A 45-foot healthy tree with a 20-inch trunk and standard access gives a planning range; buildings or power lines can change it sharply. Change the defaults above to match your own project.

What the estimate includes

The result separates the main cost components and applies the selected state adjustment. It is a budgeting tool, not a contractor quote. Ask local providers what labor, materials, cleanup, taxes, permits and warranties their bids include.

Before you hire: Get multiple written quotes, confirm insurance and licensing where required, and ask about exclusions. Costs can vary within the same state.

Frequently asked questions

Why is tree removal priced as a range?

Tree structure, nearby buildings, utility lines, rigging needs, crew size and disposal can only be confirmed on site.

Does tree removal include the stump?

Usually not. Select stump grinding to add a planning allowance based on trunk size.

Can I remove a tree near power lines?

Use a qualified professional and contact the utility when lines are involved. This calculator is not a safety assessment.
