Local tree removal prices range from $200 to $2,000 overall, but vary depending on:

• Local cost of labor and supplies

• Accessibility of the tree

• Local laws regarding who is allowed to remove the tree

• The species of the tree (softer woods are often easier to remove)

• Local seasonal discounts for the off-season

There are a few instances in which removing a tree is the best option. You might do this if the tree looks to be a major danger—potentially falling onto your home, your car, or other parts of your property—or it’s diseased beyond repair. A tree that is growing too close to your house might need to be removed to prevent mold growth.

You can expect Epsom salt and vinegar to take between 6 to 12 months to kill and dry out a tree. That may sound like a long time, but it’s much faster than it takes most tree stumps to die. If your time frame is more limited than that, you may want to call in the stump removal pros to remove the trunk or grind it down, although this may cause more ground damage.
