Relocate established palms with proper root-ball preparation, lifting equipment, transport and reinstallation care.

Excavation radius, wrap and tie sequence, and strap geometry for the lift. Species and trunk diameter set the radius, not habit.

What drives the price

Palm work is priced by site conditions, not by a flat rate. Height and trunk diameter, access for trucks and cranes, debris volume, irrigation needs, permit requirements and scheduling all move the number. Compare written estimates that spell out scope, cleanup and who pulls permits.

Questions to ask a provider

  1. 01Are you licensed and insured for this scope, and can I see current documents?
  2. 02Is the estimate written, itemised and inclusive of cleanup and disposal?
  3. 03Who is responsible for permits, street closures or crane staging?
  4. 04What happens if site conditions differ from the estimate?
