Working with councils across Sydney
Qualified arborists, our own cranes and heavy plant, and crews set up for public land. We deliver street, park and reserve tree works for local government and public agencies across Greater Sydney.
Alongside our head office in Dural, Trees Down Under runs a depot and recycle yard at 80 Michell Rd, Thirlmere. It sits in the Macarthur region, a short drive from Camden, so our crews, trucks and plant are based close to Camden and surrounding areas and can mobilise quickly for scheduled programs, reactive works and storm callouts in Sydney’s south west.
Our green waste removal brings material from every job back to the yard, where it is processed into woodchip and mulch, keeping it out of landfill.

Servicing Camden & surrounding areas
LOCAL COUNCILS WE REGULARLY WORK WITH
Councils, state agencies and utilities need a tree partner who can work to a scope, a schedule and a standard. Since 2005, our team has delivered tree removal and vegetation works on streets, parks, reserves and road corridors across Sydney, with AQF Level 3 to 5 qualified arborists on every job.
We run from our depot at 244 New Line Rd, Dural, with our own cranes, stump grinders and chipping equipment. That means fewer subcontractors on your site, faster mobilisation and one accountable team from inspection to completion report.
Street trees sit beside footpaths, roads, powerlines and private property, so every cut needs planning. We carry out clearance tree pruning, deadwooding and crown lifting for pedestrians and vehicles, plus street tree removal where a tree has failed or been approved for removal.
Parks, sporting fields and reserves see heavy public use. We plan parks and gardens maintenance around bookings and peak times, isolate every work zone, and leave the site clean and open for use the same day.
More council and public sector services
Practical support for urban tree management, from canopy targets to species choice. Our arborists help prepare and deliver a tree management plan that sets inspection cycles, pruning priorities, removals and replacement planting.
A tree audit records species, size, health, structure and risk for each tree, so your asset register holds data you can act on.
As tree planting contractors, we supply and install street and park trees to your specification, including pit preparation, staking, root barrier installation and establishment watering.
Vegetation control along road reserves, easements and powerline corridors, planned around traffic, network and public access requirements.
Commercial tree pruning and commercial tree maintenance for council buildings, depots, libraries, aquatic centres and car parks, on a cyclical program or as one off works.
We work with councils on panel arrangements, schedule of rates contracts and one off quotations. Procurement teams get a capability statement, current certificates of currency and safe work method statements up front, plus a single point of contact for the life of the contract.
Public land means public exposure. Every crew works under documented safe work method statements, traffic control is set up by ticketed controllers, and as a commercial arborist business we supply certificates of currency with every tender.

Look for qualified arborists (AQF Level 3 as a minimum, Level 5 for reports), traffic control to AS 1742.3, current public liability and workers compensation cover, documented SWMS, and the plant to finish the job without extra subcontractors. Tree contractors who own their cranes and equipment can mobilise faster and hold pricing steady across a contract.
