Tree Removal Cost Calculator — the Palm Beaches

Yes — and this is exactly the situation where the difference between a professional removal and an amateur one becomes most obvious.

Trees within 10 to 15 feet of a structure, pool enclosure, fence line, or power service entry cannot be felled — they have to come down in controlled sections using rigging techniques that prevent any piece from landing where it shouldn’t.

We have the equipment, the trained crew, and the experience to handle these removals cleanly. We do them regularly throughout Palm Beach County.

We remove all species common to the Palm Beaches — invasive species like Australian Pine, Ficus, Brazilian Pepper, and Melaleuca; native and ornamental trees including Royal Poinciana, Live Oak, Mahogany, Gumbo Limbo, Sea Grape, and Strangler Fig; and all palm species including coconut palms, queen palms, royal palms, sabal palms, and foxtail palms.

Small ornamentals or 80-foot canopy trees — the species and the size both factor into the removal plan, but neither one is off the table.

Yes, in many cases. Most cities in Palm Beach County require a tree removal permit — particularly for protected species, trees above a certain trunk diameter, or trees on commercial properties.

Lake Worth Beach, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, and West Palm Beach all have local tree ordinances, and the requirements vary by city, by species, and sometimes by zoning.

Tree Maid is familiar with the permit process across all the cities we serve. We’ll tell you before we start whether a permit is required for your specific tree and property.

For active hazards — trees that have fallen on a structure, vehicle, or are blocking access to your property — we respond as quickly as possible and can often be there the same day. Call (561) 246-3326 directly rather than filling out a web form.

After a major storm event across Palm Beach County, demand is high, but we prioritize active hazard situations and will tell you honestly where you are in the queue and when to expect us.

Everything comes with us. We remove all branches, logs, brush, and wood chips from your property as part of the standard removal.

Stump grinding is available as an add-on — we grind the stump below grade so you can sod, plant, or build over the area without a raised stump in the way.

When we leave, the area is clean, flat, and ready for whatever comes next.

We don’t leave anything behind for you to deal with.

Tree trimming — also called pruning — removes specific branches to improve the tree’s structure, health, clearance, or appearance while leaving the tree in place.

Tree removal takes the entire tree: trunk, root collar, and typically the stump via grinding.

Removal is the right call when a tree is dead, severely diseased, structurally compromised, in the wrong location, or posing an active risk to people or property.
