FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions?
Generally, yes. Most Victorian councils require permits to remove trees with trunk diameters exceeding 40cm (measured 1.4 metres from ground level), particularly native species like eucalyptus. However, exemptions exist for dead trees (with certified arborist confirmation), immediately dangerous trees, or properties within designated bushfire zones complying with 10/30 clearing rules. Yarra Ranges Council maintains a Significant Tree Register requiring permits even for smaller protected specimens. Next Step Tree Removals provides permit concierge services, handling council applications, arborist report preparation, and regulatory navigation to ensure compliant removal across Monbulk, Dandenong Ranges, and surrounding areas.
Contact SES (132 500) first if trees obstruct power lines, block public roads, cause structural damage to homes, or create immediate safety hazards. SES provides free emergency stabilization but won't remove trees lacking immediate danger or clean green waste afterward. For non-life-threatening situations, trees on private property, complete removal including stumps, or professional cleanup, call Next Step Tree Removals directly. Our certified team provides comprehensive emergency services including accurate assessment, safe removal, debris cleanup, stump grinding, and arborist reports required for insurance claims—services SES doesn't offer.
AS 4373-2007 is the Australian Standard titled "Pruning of Amenity Trees," establishing mandatory professional benchmarks for all tree pruning operations nationwide. This standard emphasizes tree health preservation through proper compartmentalization of decay (CODIT principles), prohibits harmful practices like tree lopping and topping, and defines acceptable pruning techniques including crown reduction, thinning, and deadwood removal. Victorian councils enforce AS 4373-2007 compliance, with violations resulting in significant fines and potential tree protection order breaches. Next Step Tree Removals employs AQF Level 5 certified arborists trained exclusively in AS 4373-2007 compliant techniques, ensuring your trees receive professional care that protects both tree health and property values.
Standard residential tree removal typically takes 2-6 hours from start to finish, depending on tree size, access complexity, and proximity to structures. Small trees (under 8 metres) with clear access may be completed in 30-60 minutes, while large eucalyptus specimens (20+ metres) requiring crane-assisted sectional dismantling can take 4-8 hours. Stump grinding adds 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on diameter and root system complexity. Next Step Tree Removals uses excavator-equipped teams and specialized rigging to expedite removals safely, with most Monbulk and Dandenong Ranges projects completed within a single day including complete site cleanup, stump grinding, and mulch/firewood processing options.
Next step tree removals were fantastic. Removed trees from my pool area. The did an amazing job, left the site clean and tidy and were best priced by far and very professional at their job. I can’t ask for a better job, Im more than happy with their work and would use them again. I highly recommend them.
