Tree removal cost calculator: Help with your budgeting
By using our free cost calculator for tree removal projects, you can get an instant estimate for taking up a tree on your property. Fill in a few details about your job and you can get an instant price estimate!
Using our tree removal cost calculator
To get a rough estimate to get a tree removed from your garden or land, we need to know:
The approximate height
The size of the stump or trunk
Whether you need garden waste to be removed
As well as the cost of the tree removal, you will probably also need to factor in the labour charges of the tradespeople doing the work. That may be included in the overall cost, but it is better to factor in all costs before getting a full quote.

How to calculate the typical cost of tree removal
This dedicated cost estimation tool is there to help you find the rough overall cost to remove a tree.
Different tree types and location can also factor into overall cost, so please bear in mind that this tool is only for information and not an accurate estimate.
We would still recommend speaking to a tradesperson such as a tree surgeon or tree surveyor who can talk you through all of the relevant details and process.
The calculator is based on numbers from Checkatrade's professional estimators. They are Chartered Members (MRICS) of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and Members of the Chartered Institute of Building (MCIOB).
This cost calculator does not include factors such as:
VAT
Tree type
Difficulty of terrain / location
Trimming branches (rather than complete removal)
Any required licenses
Follow-up landscaping of the affected area
Why not speak to a tree surgeon today? They'll be able to help with a more accurate quote when it comes to tree removal.
