Quick FAQ – What Toronto Tree Removal Customers Ask

Do I need a permit to remove a tree? Yes. Any tree with a trunk diameter of 30 cm (≈12 in) or larger requires a Toronto Chapter 813 permit. Fines for unpermitted work range from $500 to $100 000 per tree. We provide the required arborist supporting letter and submit the application; processing typically takes 5–10 business days.

How is the cost of tree removal calculated? Base rates (small $300–$500, medium $500–$900, large $900–$1 800, very large $1 800–$3 500+) are adjusted for:

Understanding Tree Removal Permits in Toronto

If the trunk of a tree you own measures 30 cm (about 12 inches) in diameter or more, Toronto’s Municipal Code Chapter 813 requires a permit before removal. Fines for unpermitted work can range from $500 to $100 000 per tree. Toronto Tree Removal prepares the required arborist supporting letter and submits the permit application on your behalf. Permit processing typically takes 5–10 business days, after which the crew can safely proceed with the removal.

How Tree Removal Costs Are Determined

Our price guide provides a starting point, but the final amount depends on several variables:

• Tree size – Height and trunk diameter are the primary drivers. Small trees (under 30 ft) start at $300 CAD; very large trees (70 ft +) can exceed $3 500 CAD.
• Access – Limited driveway space, steep slopes, or nearby structures may require additional equipment such as a crane ($300–$600) or specialised rigging.
• Hazard level – Trees that are dead, split, or have extensive decay are classified as hazardous and may involve extra safety measures.
• Timing – Work performed after regular hours or on statutory holidays carries an upfront premium, disclosed before scheduling.

All quotes are free, written, itemised and contain no hidden fees or deposits for standard jobs.
