Tree felling & removal

Sometimes, a tree has to go—whether it’s creating too much shade, posing a safety risk, or simply growing in the wrong place. Every tree and every job is unique, and at Rivercity Tree Services, we work with you to determine the best approach for safe, efficient tree removal.

Got a tricky tree? No problem! Our experienced and qualified arborists can dismantle trees in tight spaces with ease. For harder-to-reach spots, we use our bucket truck, and for larger or more challenging jobs, our 7-tonne excavator brings the power to get it done.

We offer a range of removal options. Want to keep the wood chips or mulch? We’ll leave them for you. Prefer everything removed down to the stump? We’ll take care of that too. Check out our Stump Grinding Services to see how we can finish the job and leave your space clean and level.

What’s included with our service:

  • Specialist tree removal: Handling all sizes and complexities, from large projects to tight spaces.

  • Climbing expertise: For trees in hard-to-reach areas where machinery won’t work, our trained climbers step in.

  • Custom options: Decide what happens next—keep the wood for firewood or let us handle the disposal.

  • Thorough clean-up: We leave your property tidy and ready for its next use.

  • Safety first: Every job is completed with strict health and safety standards in place.
