Do I Need a Permit in Croydon?
Croydon is in the Maroondah City Council. Maroondah protects trees through several overlays. In a Significant Landscape Overlay, a permit is needed to remove a tree over 5 m tall or with a single trunk over 0.5 m in circumference at 1 m above ground. Native vegetation in a Vegetation Protection Overlay, trees under heritage or neighbourhood character overlays, and canopy trees near the front or rear boundary (Clause 52.37) are also protected.
Most of Maroondah has some kind of tree control, so we check the overlay on your block before we quote.

Tree Removal in Croydon: Common Questions
How much does tree removal cost in Croydon?
It depends on the tree's height, how close it is to buildings or lines, and access for the crew. Most residential removals land between about $650 and $2,800, stump grinding from about $250, and pruning from about $350. We quote a fixed price on-site, free, before any work starts.
Do I need a council permit to remove a tree in Croydon?
Croydon is in Maroondah City Council. In a Significant Landscape Overlay, trees over 5 m tall or with a trunk over 0.5 m around at 1 m high need a permit to remove, and other overlays protect native vegetation. We check which applies to your property at the quote.
How quickly can you quote in Croydon?
We're based on High Street, Kew East, so we can usually get to Croydon for a free on-site quote within 24 hours. We answer 24/7, so fallen or dangerous trees get a fast response day or night.
Do you clean up and take the green waste away?
Yes. Every job includes full clean-up: branches are chipped or taken away, logs removed and the site raked, so you're not left with a pile to deal with.
Can you remove a tree close to my house or fence in Croydon?
Yes. Tight backyards and trees over roofs are common in Croydon. We climb and lower the tree down in sections with ropes and rigging, so nothing drops on the house, fence or garden.
