How much does tree removal cost in Fort Myers?

Tree removal ranges from $250 to $10,000+ depending on the size of the tree, its location on your property, and the complexity of the job, things like proximity to power lines, your roof, or a fence. Because every tree is different, Larry comes to your property and gives you a free, itemized estimate before any work begins.

Do you use subcontractors?

Never. Our crew, our equipment, every job. The team that shows up is Hudson’s. The crane on your property belongs to Hudson’s. That is the only way we operate.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We carry $2M in liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. Full documentation is available on request for HOAs, property managers, or commercial clients.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Lee County?

It depends on the species and your municipality. Certain native oaks require a permit in many Florida cities. We know the local ordinances and will walk you through what is required before the job starts. We do not begin removal without making sure everything is in order.

How fast can you respond to an emergency?

Larry answers his phone at 2am. For emergency situations, tree on a structure, blocked driveway and or active storm damage, we respond immediately. Call (239) 603-5304.

Larry Hudson and his crew did an outstanding job of cutting up and removing a cottonwood that had fallen due to a recent storm. They also removed a ficus tree that had grown into our power lines. When they were done, you would not have known that the trees were ever there. They did all this quickly and left the yard immaculate. We are planning to have more work done and we will be using them again without hesitation. Thanks Larry and give your crew a big thank you from us!

These guys are truly amazing! I started on wanting to have one palm tree removed and the price they gave made me question if they would really do it that cheap. When they came to remove the tree, I requested a quote to trim some other trees. They worked with me and explained that the trees I wanted trimmed were invasive and would continue to go out of control. I got a quote and was shocked at how reasonable they were. The crew was absolutely amazing. They came in removed 3 big trees, several bushes and ground out the stumps. They cleaned up and you never knew they were there. We also discussed another tree that was very tall and just waiting for the next hurricane to fall on my home and several others. This tree was big and very tall. They again gave me a price I couldn't refuse, and they came back the following week to remove the tree. The neighbors sent me compliments on what an awesome job they did. See the pictures....you can't even tell there was a tree there. Thank you Larry. Your tree crew is absolutely amazing.
