What Trees Can I Remove in Russell Lea Without Council Approval?
City of Canada Bay usually requires consent to remove larger canopy trees such as mature eucalypts, figs, liquidambars and casuarinas. Smaller shrubs, young ornamentals and some dead trees may fall within exemption thresholds. Properties near the foreshore or in character streets often face added oversight. Trees Down Under can identify your species, measure trunk and height and explain whether your tree is exempt or controlled under the City of Canada Bay DCP before any tree lopping Sydney or removal work begins.
How often do I need routine tree maintenance in Russell Lea?
Regular maintenance helps trees stay safe in a suburb with sloped driveways, waterfront winds and older homes. Most established trees benefit from inspection every 12–18 months. Maintenance may be needed sooner when you notice:
Branches growing low over paths or driveways
Limbs approaching roofs, gutters or powerlines
Early signs of decay in figs, gums or liquidambars
Roots lifting paving or walls
Trees Down Under can outline a maintenance plan that fits your block size, tree mix and council considerations.

Really pleased with the job from Trees Down Under, guys were really pleasant and helpful to deal with. Yard and area left so tidy you’d barely know they were there. Price was very reasonable as well. Communication easy and prompt. Will definitely use them again.
Our trees were seriously overgrown and blocking all sun in backyard – now open and neat. Total tree removal from front that was completely growing around piwer lines.

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
