What Trees in Lewisham Do I need Council Approval to remove?
Many established trees in Lewisham need Inner West Council consent before removal.

Congrats Team “Trees Down Under” as you have provided an outstanding and highly professional service. As you know the access to the two large Angophora trees on my property was difficult but your team working in partnership with Transformer Cranes made a difficult job look easy.
Please pass on my sincere gratitude to all concerned for not only the work carried out but also the care and respect they showed to Puppy Rosie and myself.
Thank you for a job well done
