Tree and Stump Removal Tasmania
With its dense rainforests of flora and fauna, Tasmania is home to some of the most beautiful trees in the world. Not just that, we also have the Huon Pine Tree to boast about—the oldest tree in Australia, with some of the oldest living organisms on the planet.
The stunning natural environment means it’s no surprise that Tasmanians have come to expect the highest quality professional care for their trees. Preserving and protecting Tasmanian trees is a priority for all of our Arborists, and part of maintaining a healthy tree population includes cutting down and removing trees that have become dangerous through age, disease, or damage.
Our experts can help you to identify the trees that pose a threat to you and the community. Removing hazardous trees is not only essential for ensuring your safety, it also creates space for new saplings to grow and thrive.
Tree Services in Tasmania
Tasmania experiences four distinct seasons throughout the year, and the weather conditions can vary dramatically day to day. Despite Tasmania’s temperamental climate, Hobart is actually the second-driest capital city in Australia, meaning its trees can sometimes need some extra TLC to keep them at their best.
What trees do we work with the most in Tasmania? Eucalyptus trees are the most abundant genera of tree, with 40 different species of Gum Trees making up 8.5% of the total tree population here. Along with these, Variegated Elm (Ulmus minor ‘Variegata’), Bhutan Cypress (Cupressus torulosa), European Linden or ‘Common Lime’ (Tilea x europaea), and Plane Tree (Platanus x hispanica) are quite common. Jim’s Trees specialists are skilled at managing all trees, so whatever you need taken care of, we’re here to help out.
To help keep your trees healthy, safe and resilient in all conditions, our local Arborists in Tassie provide a full range of services:

FAQs
How much do tree removal, pruning, or related services cost in Tasmania?
The cost of tree services can change based on a number of factors—namely the size and species of tree (some trees, like Palm Trees and Yuccas, are more difficult to remove than others), the amount of people needed to get the job done safely, the time it takes, and the machinery required.
Because of this, we highly recommend getting in touch with your local Jim’s Trees team to speak with them about your needs, and get a quote that most accurately reflects the task at hand.
Do you need a permit to prune or remove trees in Tasmania?
It is always a good idea to contact your local council before commencing any significant treeworks, since tree protection laws are enforced on a local government level. Each council has their own rules and procedures for local tree removal permits that may be distinct from neighbouring municipalities.
Generally speaking, in Tassie, a permit is required to remove any native trees with a trunk circumference more than 80cm, as well as for protected tree species, even on private property.
Don’t worry if this seems a bit too complex to navigate alone—your local Jim’s Trees arborist will be able to find the relevant information and requirements, ensuring compliance with any rules and regulations in your area.
Are you fully insured?
Every job done by Jim’s Trees is covered by our industry-leading $10 million insurance policy. We don’t take risks with your property or our safety, so we take the uncertainty out of the equation with our comprehensive coverage.
Can you remove green waste from my property?
When we tend to any tree service, we make sure to tidy up after ourselves! We offer woodchipping and green waste disposal in addition to our full range of tree services.
When’s the best time of year to have trees removed?Toggle Title
If you need to have a tree removed, late autumn, winter, or early spring is the best time to do it. For deciduous trees, this is the time when they won’t have leaves or new growth in the way, so there’s less debris and mess to work around. Since winter is a low-growth season, many species also don’t take up as much water and nutrients from the soil, making them lighter and easier to remove.
Thanks to both of these factors, it can also be cheaper to have trees removed in winter, as the process can take less time and be less demanding on the arborist.
