Trusted tree care across East Victoria Park

Albany Highway runs like a spine through East Victoria Park, its café and restaurant strip framed by street trees, while the side streets behind it hold character cottages and Federation homes on compact lots. It's a green, close-grained suburb, and the mature trees packed into those tight blocks reward proper care and punish shortcuts.

Perth Arbor Services has provided professional tree work throughout East Victoria Park and the wider Town of Victoria Park since 2011. Our degree-qualified arborists handle removal, pruning, lopping and land clearance, with one clear written quote agreed before any work begins.

What we do

Tree services we offer in East Victoria Park

One degree-qualified team for every job, from an awkward backyard tree to a full development-site clearance.

Tree Lopping

When a tree truly needs a heavy cutback for clearance or safety, we do it the right way. Crude lopping often leaves a tree weaker, uglier and more dangerous down the track, whereas a planned crown reduction reaches the same practical outcome.

Learn more →

Tree Removal

On narrow character-home lots, big trees often sit hard against cottages, fence lines and rear laneways. We take down trees of any size in tight, low-access backyards, dismantling them section by section so nothing lands where it shouldn't, and clear every trace.

Learn more →

Tree Pruning

On leafy streets where canopies meet over the road, regular pruning keeps growth away from powerlines, gutters, patios and the neighbour's roof. We prune to Australian Standard AS4373, protecting a tree's structure and future, not just cutting it back for a season.

Tree Risk Assessment

The mature trees that give East Victoria Park its shade also carry real risk when nobody has checked them in years. Our written assessments pinpoint defects, decay and failure potential — a documented record of due diligence before storm season arrives.

Learn more →

Land Clearance

With ongoing infill and subdivision reshaping the suburb's older blocks, we provide efficient site clearance for new builds and battle-axe developments, carried out in line with the Town of Victoria Park's requirements.

Learn more →

Stump Grinding

Once a tree is down, we grind the stump well below ground so it won't regrow or get in the way of paving, lawn or a new build on East Victoria Park's compact lots — grindings cleared away before we leave.

Town of Victoria Park tree rules: what to check before any work starts

Tree work in East Victoria Park isn't always as simple as booking someone in. Before you prune or remove anything on or near your block, it helps to know which trees the Town controls and which are your call.

The Town of Victoria Park maintains the trees on verges, in parks and across all land it manages. Residents must not prune, remove or otherwise damage these street trees without the Town's approval. Unauthorised pruning, removal or damage of a Town tree is an offence, and the Town can prosecute under its Activities on Thoroughfares and Trading in Thoroughfares and Public Places Local Law 2000, so penalties may apply.

Trees on private property are generally yours to manage, but not without limits. Under the Town's Local Planning Policy on tree retention, planning approval is required before removing or damaging larger established trees, and extra approvals can apply where a property is heritage-listed or a tree appears on the Town's Significant Tree Register.

Perth Arbor Services will tell you what needs Town approval before we quote, not once the work is underway. If an application is required, we can walk you through it so your project keeps moving.

Unsure whether your job needs Town of Victoria Park approval? Call us first on (08) 9227 0010 and we'll give you a straight answer before a single branch is touched.

Can highly recommend Perth Arbor Services. The guys were very friendly, professional and did a magnificent job on our very tall palm trees and the trimming of the other tree was 1st Class. A special shout out to Rowan who came out for an onsite quote. Highly experienced in his knowledge and we will definitely be calling upon Perth Arbor Services in the future! Well done ๐Ÿ‘

So pleased with the quality service we recieved from Rowan and his team. The council asked us for an arborist report for a Tree Growth Zone smaller than their mandated dimensions. Contacted Rowan and he helped us with the letter straight away. The fee was also very resoanable (fraction of the other quote I had). Highly recommended.

Saw one of your vehicles rego ending in 388 driving recklessly in traffic and driving in the emergency lane. Not great advertising when you have the company logo on the vehicle...

The guys (and gal) from Perth Arbor Services were excellent. Chris came to our property to view two large trees and provide a quote. I was immediately impressed at the knowledge and advice he provided. The team turned up on the agreed day and time and were thoroughly professional throughout the process. After, they did a great job of tidying up - very pleased and have no problem providing a five star rating for their service

Thank you so much to the team at Perth Arbor Services. What a fantastic job. Polite, efficient and concerned to get the right balance for me the client, when it came to the pruning of some of our existing trees. The result was exactly what I wanted and the clean up afterwards...perfect! I would highly recommend them.

I required quite a lot of work to be undertaken in my back garden, in order to correct a couple of small issues and to tidy it up, as I intend to sell soon. I was visited by Rowan who was very good in explaining how the garden had got to its current state and what was needed to get it to the state that I wanted. A date was agreed with Michael and Shamus and his group turned up exactly at the agreed time. They worked exceptionally hard and undertook the work that created the garden that I wanted. I was impressed that Rowan and Shamus had obviously discussed what was required and how to undertake it. I was soooo impressed that I wanted to give 10 stars, but the upper limit was only 5! If anyone that I know needs this sort of assistance then I will be passing Perth Arbor Services contact details to them.

Good to know

East Victoria Park tree service questions, answered

Can I prune or remove the verge tree outside my East Victoria Park home?

No. The Town of Victoria Park maintains the trees on verges, in parks and across all land it manages, and residents must not prune, remove or damage them without the Town's approval. Unauthorised work is an offence and the Town can prosecute under its Activities on Thoroughfares and Trading in Thoroughfares and Public Places Local Law 2000. If a verge tree needs attention, contact the Town or call us and we'll point you the right way.

Do I need council approval to remove a tree on my own property in East Victoria Park?

Possibly. Trees on private property are generally yours to manage, but under the Town's Local Planning Policy on tree retention, planning approval is required before removing or damaging larger established trees, and extra approvals apply where a property is heritage-listed or a tree is on the Town's Significant Tree Register. Perth Arbor Services checks and advises on all of this before we quote, not after.

What is the difference between tree lopping and tree pruning?

Crude lopping often leaves a tree weaker, uglier and more dangerous down the track, while a properly planned crown reduction reaches the same practical outcome without the harm. Our arborists work to Australian Standard AS4373 so every cut benefits the tree's structure, and we tell you honestly which approach your tree actually calls for.

Do you grind out the stump after removing a tree?

Yes. Stump grinding is part of what we do. Once a tree is removed we can grind the stump well below ground level so it won't throw up regrowth or get in the way of paving, lawn or a new build, and we clear away the grindings before we leave.

Is East Victoria Park affected by the polyphagous shot-hole borer (PSHB)?

Yes. East Victoria Park sits within Perth's metropolitan Quarantine Area for the polyphagous shot-hole borer, an invasive beetle that bores into a wide range of tree species. If you have susceptible trees on your property, early assessment is recommended, and our arborists can inspect and manage the risk accordingly.

How quickly can you attend a storm-damaged or dangerous tree?

We work seven days a week and offer emergency call-outs for trees that fail or split and can't wait. Call us on (08) 9227 0010 and we'll get a qualified arborist out to you as quickly as possible.
