PALM REMOVAL AND PRUNING

PALM REMOVAL
& PRUNING

Regular palm trimming by one of our arborists will keep your palm trees looking healthy and tidy. If the palm has outgrown its location you need to speak to the Tree King palm removal team; they are experts in all palm removal including Phoenix palm removal.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I PRUNE MY PALMS?

Palm trimming should generally be carried out at least once a year, sometimes more frequently to avoid damage from dead fronds when they fall off.  Palms shed fronds naturally as they grow and is not a sign that the tree is sick or dying.

We can trim any species of palm including smooth tall Queen palms and the spikey Phoenix palm.  Our skilled arborists can scale even the tallest palms without the need for a cherry picker.

REASONS TO TRIM PALMS

    • Frond removal for aesthetics
    • Frond removal for damage prevention
    • Increased light
    • Possum and rodent prevention
    • Seed pod removal
    • Husk removal

      If trimming is not an option Tree King can remove any palm, anywhere! Using our experienced arborists and advanced lowering techniques even the most tricky palms can be removed safely without damage to surrounding vegetation or property.  Once removed we can grind the palm stump out completely so you can replant something more preferable.

      WE RECYCLE

      Almost all our palms can be chipped through our specialist machines.  If we can chip it then generally there is no extra disposal cost invloved.  Unlike other companies we mix our palm mulch in with our other arborist mulch so it can go back on peoples gardens.  Palm mulch is great when mixed in with other arborist mulch and left to age.

      PHOENIX PALM REMOVAL

      Phoenix palms can be problematic in New Zealand due to their fast growth and propensity to spread by dropping seeds.

      The plant is on the the list of environmentally damaging plants which means in most cases they can be removed without resource consent, regardless of size. 

      Phoenix palm removal is a challenging task due to the sharp, poisonous spikes and unhygienic nests of pigeons and rats that frequently occupy the canopy. For health and safety reasons, our preferred methods of removal are either straight felling or utilising a crane or aerial lift (such as a cherry picker).

      Phoenix palms are a lot easier to deal with when they are small, so if yours is in an inappropriate place we suggest you act now!

      REASONS TO REMOVE PHOENIX PALMS

      • Fast growing and seeds drop causing it to spread easily.
      • Rats and pigeons nest in canopy.
      • Dead fronds drop on property causing damage.
      • Sharp, poisonous spikes.
      • Pruning required annually.

      Have been using Tree King for a few years now and multiple properties. Whenever we need a stump grinding done or a tree that needs to come down safely, we reach out to Tree King.Most recently, we needed a tree stump of a massive palm tree to be ground. This was very close to the water meter and underground internet services. Tree King came in with the latest equipment and skilled staff to remedy the situation.Overall very happy and happy to recommend to all...

      Glad I found Tree King. This is the second time I've engaged them for my bamboo/ camelia tree trims. They are able to send a reminder based on a particular frequency to Client's request which is great! Highly efficient and communicative team from initial contact to work scheduling. Wonderful, courteous, professional crew, trees trimmed to perfection (as per my requests) and left the place tidy! Very reasonable price for their work too. Highly recommend these guys.

      Luke and his Team from Tree King did a great job of removing skyscraper high Bamboo from our 80-year-old Aunties property. A mammoth task with a great, reliable and very hard-working team on the job. Thanks once again guys.

      It's a rare occurrence in these times to find such an easy and comfortable company to work with. Unlike so many trades who turn up late, complain of the work, complain of the boss etc. You know these kinds. Well not Tree King. Luke #1 turned up, scoped the job and quoted promptly at a good price. The Team then arrived on time, the day they were scheduled to. Luke #2 and Yeshi both introduced themselves by name and explained the process. Again rare these days.With Safety at the forefront, these 2 guys worked like Trojans with a skill to be admired. I was continually amazed watching Luke and Yeshi topple this giant tree like 2 Davids and Goliath.Tree felling is a very dangerous task and these guys with their communication between them (which I learn is key) made me feel confident I was not watching a couple of cowboys chopping a tree down".Thanks Fellas and the Tree King company. You are at the top of my speed dial for Tree Work

      Right from the beginning, the team at Tree King provided me with fantastic and confident service. I have a rental in Auckland and needed a large hedge trimmed. I could not meet them on-site as I no longer reside in the area. I found the service outstanding, with excellent communication throughout the quoting and finishing of the job. If you have a rental and need a team you can rely on, then Tree King is your people and very trustworthy.I recommend them to anyone. I will be using this company again. They know what they are doing and have excellent prices. Thank you.

      Tree King are our guys for any arborist work. The trees on our property are remnants of protected bush requiring precision and knowledge. Luke and the team are always professional and they have worked closely with the council to ensure the integrity of the trees are maintained.

      Brilliant company to deal with. The team cut down a huge oak tree for us which had a good audience watching from the local café, then a big stump grind and the job was done, 2 days hard work completed from the team. We are very happy with the job you did for us and you are such a professional company to deal with. Thanks for everything.

      Luke and the team were fantastic and were very professional. They gave a thorough written quote, went over and above to achieve what was agreed, and the boys did a fantastic job. They checked during and after to make sure we were happy with the work. I would certainly use their services again, and highly recommend them all!

      Very professional attitude to the business of trees. Quotation process, speed of arrival, and quality of the work were superb and well above the standard of other tradies we've dealt with. And what a great bunch of friendly guys doing the job. Totally loved their work ethic and ability to work in rough weather. Cute to serve them coffees on my deck - they so deserved them!

      Tree King were fabulous, they were easy to deal with on the phone. Came round to scope job and provide us a quote very quickly. They kept us updated constantly on expectation of timing for job completion and did the job much more quickly than originally anticipated. Staff all very friendly and helpful, and left the property very tidy. We couldn't ask for anything more.

      Luke, and his team are amazing, coming and removing two trees from my property and then grinding the stumps. I was really impressed. Great people to engage with, the lead of the team that came was brilliant checking with me what I needed and generally just making sure everything was done really well. He ensured that safety measures were in place, and that no other plant on my property was impacted. The professional way they went about the work, and these guys were true pleasure to watch as they clearly enjoyed their work. As an Executive Coach I watched with admiration at the way they communicated and coached each other throughout the job. The site was left immaculate, and they cleaned everything from the driveway. It was as if the trees had never been there.Our job was a relatively small one, but all I can say is I’m glad I engaged Tree King, because from the time I contacted them, they assessed my job, gave me a very reasonable quote there were no surprises for me. They managed my expectations but exceeded them in delivery. Every step of the way this team was superb, and I recommend them completely
