Tree removal is one of the most common service call that a tree service provider will encounter. In most cases, people are not aware of the tree removal costs because they come in small bundles and stack them up in neat bundles, sometimes even into baskets. But, when you really look at those costs, you will find out that they are quite high, and can cost thousands of dollars for just one tree.
In most cases, people believe that tree planting is cheaper than tree removal. However, when you take into consideration the actual costs, both tree planting and tree removal are very expensive, and thus they cannot be used as an average cost planting or tree removal. On the other hand, if you opt for average cost planting, you will find out that it is possible to get back half the tree planting cost through tree removal. The reason is that you will also need to spend on the average cost planting again, and thus, the total cost would end up being double or even triple than the initial planting costs.
When you calculate tree costs, you will find out that they are based on various factors such as the size of the tree, the kind of tree (whether it is spruce or maple), and the size of the area that needs to be planted. And depending on your location, you will need different kinds of trees, or different sizes of trees. And the average tree costs that you will get will depend on these two factors.
In general, the bigger the trees are, the more expensive it will be to plant them. The average price per foot for a single tree will be around five hundred dollars. And if you want them to cover a distance of at least one hundred feet, it will end up being closer to one thousand dollars. For the purpose of calculating the average price per foot, only the free standing trees are considered. If you need to trim these trees so that they cover a distance of more than a hundred feet, you will need to hire professional services from arborists. The arborist's hourly charge will vary based on the extent of his work and the type of tree that he has to trim.
If you are going to do tree planting, the expenses associated with it will depend on the size of the tree you are going to plant and the amount of land that you have available for tree planting. Tree planting costs will be quite different if you are doing it for a tree in your own backyard as opposed to those that you will plant in the middle of a large forest. The trick to saving money on tree planting is to plan your tree planting as far in advance as possible. If you are able to plan six months to one year ahead, you will be able to choose the perfect time to plant the tree.
And finally, when you are planning to do tree landscaping, you should remember to include pruning in your budget. You can cut down the size of the tree by pruning. Or, if you don't want to do pruning, you can leave the branches untidy so that they will not attract insects or diseases. Remember, it all boils down to how much work you are willing to do and what you can do to save money on your tree planting.
