    The whole team was super-impressive, from start to finish. The entire operation was full of incredible teamwork, with clear communication and everyone working together and looking out for everyone else. This included the Priority Tree folk and the crane team that assisted in lifting the branches and transporting them to the mulcher. Safety was clearly paramount, and the whole operation was amazingly slick, smooth and efficient. In addition, the entire team was also incredibly helpful and cheerful. We couldn't possibly have received better service.

    The nicest tradesperson experience ever! We had Ben around to quote some work and he gave us invaluable advice on how we could DIY the jobs. I would fully trust their advice and they're certainly not out just to make money (unlike another arborist we had quote the same jobs!). Will absolutely use Priority Tree Care in the future for any work.

    Servies provided were exactly as quoted. Prices competively with all considerations of our job taken seriously. I'd recommend Ben and his team without hesitation.

    Scott and his team did a great job of removing a gum tree from our backyard and lifting the understory of the large plane tree in the front yard. They arrived on time and were very quick in completing the work. Communication was easy and informative. What impressed us the most was how much care they took with the extensive shrubbery beneath both trees and how well they tidied up before leaving.

    There are professional arborists and there are cowboy tree loppers. Priority Tree Care are professional, knowledgeable and highly skilled arborists. Scott provided a great deal of excellent advice regarding major pruning of a Regulated tree in our backyard, including steps to seek approval from the Tree Protection Unit and EVO Energy. His quote was the best of three and Priority Tree Care delivered exactly as quoted. They arrived promptly on the day of work and the crew maintained excellent discipline and communication as they safely completed the job. Each team member was respectful and showed a commitment to customer satisfaction, even sweeping paths. They respected our other plants in the garden and cleaned up thoroughly after the job so there was nothing further to do. We'll now use Priority Tree Care as our arborists and we would highly recommend.

    The team were amazing. Friendly, helpful, professional and protected all our other trees and infrastructure whilst they worked. Very highly recommend Priority Trees.

Frequently asked questions

How much do arborists typically charge?
Arborist costs vary widely depending on the type and scale of work. Factors such as tree size and species, site access, whether removal and stump grinding are needed, required equipment and disposal all affect the total. Most quotes separate a call-out component from labour and materials, and after-hours or emergency jobs generally attract higher rates. The live pricing on this page shows current estimates for different job types.
Do arborists charge call-out fees?
Many arborists charge a call-out fee to attend and assess the job, which is usually separate from labour and materials. That fee typically covers travel and the initial site inspection, and smaller or remote jobs may be subject to a minimum charge. It's worth confirming whether a call-out fee is included in any quote you receive.
When do arborists need a licence?
Arborists often need registration or specific contractor credentials for higher-risk, large-scale or regulated tree work. Where the scope overlaps with regulated building or contractor work, providers should hold a valid state contractor or builder credential and comply with local council permit requirements for protected trees. For higher‑risk tasks, look for evidence of public liability insurance, documented work-at-heights controls and SWMS.
