Tree removal cost has an overall typical figure of $800, within a sourced range of $300 to $1,600. The ranges on this page come from two sources, Angi and HomeGuide. Tree height drives the price, because taller trees take more time and equipment. Use the figure as a starting budget, not a quote.
By tree height
Each row combines one range from each of the two sources. Angi lists cleanup as a separate item; HomeGuide does not say whether cleanup is included, and it shows its top figures with a plus sign.

|---|---|---|---|
| Overall typical range | $300 | $800 | $1,600 |
| Up to 30 feet | $175 | $325 | $475 |

| Over 80 feet | $1,100 | $1,700 | $2,250 |

The low and high are the medians of the published bounds. For two sources, the median is the mean of the pair. Typical is the median of the source midpoints. Derived figures round to twenty-five-dollar steps below a thousand dollars and fifty-dollar steps at or above it, with exact halves rounded up. The estimator selects its base bounds, adds applicable extras in full and rounds the final totals.
