Common questions
What others asks before signing up?
How much does tree removal cost in Australia?
Tree removal costs vary by height: small trees under 5m cost $400-$1,500, medium trees (5-10m) cost $1,000-$3,500, large trees (10-20m) cost $2,500-$6,500, and very large trees over 20m cost $4,000-$8,000+. Stump grinding adds $150-$600 per stump. Your arborist will confirm the final estimate after a site assessment.
Do I need a council permit to remove a tree?
Most Australian councils require a permit for trees over a certain height (typically 3-5m) or trunk diameter (30cm+). Protected species may have additional restrictions. Your arborist can advise whether a permit is needed and handle the application. Permit fees typically range from $80-$400.
Does the estimate include GST?
Yes. All estimates generated by this calculator include 10% GST as required by the Australian Tax Office for registered businesses.
Can I add this calculator to my WordPress or Squarespace site?
Yes. You get an embed code that works on WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix and Shopify. Just paste it into any page — the calculator loads in an iframe styled to match your site.
What do I get when someone fills out the calculator?
You receive an instant email notification with the customer's name, contact details, location, job specifics (tree height, species, access) and their estimate amount. Leads appear in your Leadkit dashboard with a lead score to help prioritise callbacks.
What if I don't have a website?
Leadkit auto-generates a hosted quote page at your own branded URL. Share the link on social media, Google Business Profile, or in direct messages — no website required.
Why is crane access more expensive?
Crane hire adds $1,000-$3,000 per job depending on tree size and site requirements. When there is no ground access for a cherry picker or climbing is unsafe, a crane is the only option for safe removal of large limbs and trunk sections.
Is Leadkit really free?
Yes. Free lets you add up to 3 calculators to your website and receive 10 leads per month — no credit card. Every lead beyond the cap is still captured and held for you; upgrading to Pro ($29/mo) opens them all retroactively and removes the cap.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You get an embed code (one line of HTML). Paste it into your website builder — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, or any custom site. That's it.
How accurate are the price estimates?
You configure the calculator formulas to match your actual pricing. Leadkit provides the framework; you set the numbers. Estimates can be as detailed or as rough as you like.
What happens with lead data?
All lead data is stored securely in your workspace. You own it. We never sell or share your leads with anyone.
Can I use Leadkit as an agency for multiple clients?
Yes — our Agency plan lets you create and manage separate workspaces for each of your clients, all from one dashboard.
What's the difference between the plans?
Free: up to 3 calculators, 10 leads/month (over-cap leads held + locked until upgrade). Pro: unlimited leads, unlimited calculators, white-label, branded email sending, analytics, email templates. Agency: everything in Pro plus multi-workspace management.

How it works
How this tree removal estimate is calculated
This calculator produces an estimate based on typical Australian arborist rates. Final pricing depends on the specific site conditions, tree health, proximity to structures, and whether specialist equipment is needed.
GST handling: All estimates include 10% GST as required for Australian businesses registered for GST.
1
Base removal cost by height
Each tree height category maps to a base cost reflecting average labour, equipment and time. Small trees (<5m) start around $800, scaling up to $6,000+ for very large specimens over 20m.
tree_height * tree_species * tree_count
2
Species difficulty multiplier
Hardwood species (eucalyptus, oak, fig) are denser and heavier than softwoods (pine, cypress, palm), requiring more labour time and heavier equipment. A 30% premium applies to hardwood removal.
3
Access and crane assessment
Fenced yards add 15%, hard access (slopes, narrow paths, obstacles) adds 35%. Where ground access is impossible, crane hire ($1,000-$3,000 per tree) replaces the access multiplier.
4
Stump grinding and extras
Stump grinding averages $300 per stump. Green waste removal averages $200 per tree. Council permits (required for most trees over 3-5m) add $80-$400 depending on your local council.
5
GST and minimum fee
10% GST is added to the subtotal. A minimum job fee ($400 default) ensures small jobs cover mobilisation costs.
Prices vary by tree height, species, access and location. Sydney and Melbourne typically cost 15-25% more than regional areas.

Sydney and Melbourne metro areas typically attract a 15-25% premium. Regional and rural areas are generally cheaper for labour but may incur higher travel costs.
