Willow tree removal and willow tree pruning across Victoria.
Willows were widely planted along Victorian waterways for erosion control and shade, but several willow species are now declared noxious weeds due to how aggressively they spread and the damage their root systems cause to waterways and infrastructure. Willow tree removal is often part of a broader waterway or land management program rather than a single tree job.
Artistree Professional Tree Care provides willow tree removal and willow tree pruning across Melbourne, on Weeping Willow, Crack Willow, White Willow and other Salix species, whether it’s one tree or a whole line along a waterway.
Because willows regenerate readily from cut material, willow tree removal usually needs to be followed up with proper disposal or treatment of the stump and any root material left in the ground.
Most willow tree jobs fall into one of the following categories.
Willow tree removal can involve significant machinery where a willow has grown into a large multi trunked specimen, and because so many willows sit directly on waterways, removal often involves environmental approvals as well as any council permits. It’s worth checking with your local council or catchment authority before planning larger scale willow tree removal.
Willow tree pruning is sometimes used as an interim measure on trees not yet scheduled for removal, buying time while a broader waterway management plan is put together.
Every willow tree job is backed by the same standard of qualification and insurance, whether it’s a single tree or a full waterway line.
