How much does Tree removal & stump grinding cost in Melbourne? (2026 price guide)
Removing a small to medium tree typically costs $500-$1,500, while large or difficult trees near power lines or buildings can run $2,000-$5,000 or more. Stump grinding is usually charged separately at around $100-$350 per stump, though many companies offer a discount when it's bundled with the removal.
The biggest cost drivers are tree height and trunk diameter, how much access equipment (cherry picker, crane) is needed, proximity to structures or powerlines, and whether council permits are required for protected or significant trees. Green waste removal and stump grinding depth also add to the total.
Get a fixed-price quote rather than an hourly rate where possible, and check the tree isn't council-protected before booking, as removing a protected tree without a permit can attract fines.
