Is it because of buildings close by and difficult access?

Does anybody want to cut my tree for free, it's in Miranda.....

How big is your tree julissee just made phone call to those who maybe interested

Edit

Just re read that its 800 dia and 20 meters high

What would the spread of the top of the tree be

How far does this encrouch onto neighbours and your house and gardens

Is there power lines involved

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.
