Joister,
$7k to cut down a tree !!!
That is alot of money, how big is it?
Is it because of buildings close by and difficult access?
Does anybody want to cut my tree for free, it's in Miranda.....

Hi Wheelinround,
I just drove past the house today to take another look at the tree.
It's actually more like 1.0m in diameter, even wider higher up the trunk where it splits into about 4 or 5 branches going almost vertically.
The tree would be about 15-20m high. There are a few powerlines around which only the extremeties of the branches reach.
The tree is directly in te middle of a 55 ft wide block between the streer gutter and the front of the house.
Can post a pic if you want.
I'm going to need to cut this down once my development gets approved, hopefully not much more than a few months.
Thanks

photo's would be good
your biggest problem is going to be the power lines
the people I know won't touch it not till it is down they would gladly take it away for you
maybe contact the Electric people and see what they say this could be your hold up with council.
