Stump Grinding in Melbourne
Tree removal almost always leaves a stump. Most clients want it ground out on the same visit — same crew, same disposal, no second call-out. Stump grinding adds $150-$600 depending on stump diameter and root spread, but only if you choose to add it.

“Same-day” is one of those promises that’s only useful if the job actually fits inside it. Small tree removal — trees under 5 metres and under 25 cm trunk diameter — is the segment where same-day service legitimately works for most Melbourne homeowners. Here’s when to use it and when to plan ahead.
When same-day works: a leaning ornamental tree, a dead cypress in a hedge run, a young Pin Oak planted in the wrong spot, a self-seeded Cherry Plum that’s now hitting the eaves. Anything under 5 metres tall, on flat residential land, with vehicle access to within 10 metres of the tree, is a half-day job for two arborists. We can usually fit one of these into the same-day schedule if you call before 10am.
When same-day doesn’t work: any tree near powerlines (needs distributor isolation, 24-48 hour notice), trees in heritage overlay areas (permit lead time), tree removal on slopes steeper than 15° (additional rigging setup), or removals requiring a chipper that can’t fit through the gate (truck access). For these, expect 3-7 working days.
What “same-day” actually costs: the on-the-day premium for small tree removal in Melbourne sits at 10-20% above scheduled-week pricing. A small tree removal that’s $350 booked a week ahead might be $400-$420 same-day. The premium covers crew reorganisation and the displaced job that moves to the following day.
What we bring on a same-day small tree job: one ute, one trailer with chipper, two qualified arborists, chainsaws across three sizes (top-handle, mid-bar, ground saw), rigging line, and protection mats for any paving. The whole job — drop, chip, stump cut, sweep — sits between 90 minutes and 3 hours depending on the species. We leave the site cleaner than we found it.
Same-day means same-day, not “in the next 48 hours”. If we book a same-day, we’re on-site that day with a written before-work quote and a guaranteed all-in price. If it turns out the tree needs more work than expected on arrival (rotten trunk, bigger root flare, council issue), we tell you before starting and you can call it off without paying anything except the on-site call-out.

Small tree to drop? Same-day service from $250
Small tree jobs are our bread and butter — most go same-day or next-day, with a fixed price agreed before we touch the tree. Rob calls you back the same day, asks for a photo, confirms availability, and books you in.
No minimum job fee, no scheduling games — if it’s small enough to drop ground-side, we’re probably free this week.
