Services
Tree and stump services
A complete range of arborist services, from single-tree removals to large-scale land clearing. Each job is scoped to the site, planned around access and safety, and finished with a full clean-up.
Tree & palm services
Tree Removal
Safe tree removal starts with the right plan. Our team assesses each situation and uses low-impact methods to clear space, eliminate hazards and protect surrounding structures, gardens, fences or utilities.
Learn more →Tree Pruning
Not all trees need removal. By trimming dead, damaged or overgrown branches, we help improve light flow, reduce hazards and support healthy growth while protecting the structure and shape of each tree.
Learn more →Tree Lopping
Out-of-control trees can block views and damage property. Our team cuts back large branches and reduces height to improve safety, maintain visibility and create a more manageable canopy with lasting results.
Learn more →Palm Tree Removal
Dealing with palms requires specific care. Whether removing Cotton, Cocos or Alexander palms, we safely manage their height, weight and spiky fronds to prevent hazards and improve the appearance of your yard.
Learn more →Tree Maintenance
Healthy trees need more than just pruning. With regular maintenance, we help manage shape, assess risk and keep your trees thriving, balancing safety, longevity and a tidy appearance throughout the year.
Learn more →Tree Pruning and Lopping
Pruning and lopping to keep trees safe, healthy and clear of roofs, driveways and powerlines.
Learn more →Site & support services
Stump Grinding
Leftover stumps create hazards and attract pests. Using grinders suited to every job, we remove stumps quickly and cleanly, eliminating regrowth, improving access and helping you make the most of your space.
Learn more →Mulching Services
Green waste doesn't go to waste. We chip and repurpose branches and debris into nutrient-rich mulch that improves soil health, prevents weed growth and keeps your yard neat and well-maintained.
Learn more →Storm Damage Clean-up
Storms can create dangerous situations fast. We provide storm damage tree services to remove fallen trees, clear broken limbs, and secure unsafe areas, reducing further risk and restoring safety after severe weather.
Learn more →Arborist Reports
Some situations call for formal documentation. When council or insurers require it, we provide detailed arborist reports: professional assessments that help support applications, risk management and planning decisions.
Learn more →Land Clearing
Preparing land for use begins with clearing. We remove trees and stumps efficiently, making way for future development, bushfire prevention or general clean-up, without disturbing the ground more than necessary.
Learn more →Commercial Tree Services
Tree work for property managers, body corporates, schools, builders and councils, with SWMS and insurance paperwork ready.

Wayne’s team were very efficient and listened to all our requests when trimming ou garden and taking out a couple of large palms. And they all cleaned up afterwards including getting a bit of leaf litter of of the pool. Very happy.
Tina.
Can not fault Wayne and his team at all! They removed 20+ very large palms and gum trees from our property without a single issue. They were on time, polite and most importantly did a fantastic job. If you need tree lopping, these are your guys! Thanks again Wayne & crew!
The guys did the top job very quick and efficient and very friendly will use them again next time
So glad I chose Hinterland Tree and Stump Removal to get rid of 4 pandanus trees in my backyard. Wayne and crew were amazing. Everything was done so quickly and efficient. Very professional and I highly recommend them if you’re needed any trees removed.
Great job. These magicians got rid of 3 trees (Lillypillys [large]) from our Tewantin Property earlier this week. In and out in under three hours. The professional skills of Andy and Wayne were second to none. It was remarkable how accurately Andy handled his saws as he climbed the trees. Fascinating to stand back and watch them go about their work.
Our property was cleaned up in colab with #MatesRatesMowing who were equally professional and skilled. Spotless section with no damage to fences or the property. Thanks to Julian and Jimmi.
Really happy with the works carried out. Now we can begin to plant some new bushes and flowering plants to bring in the bees.
Happy to recommend both teams.
Had some small trees and shrubs removed and mulched. The guys did a great job. Very fast and efficient. They made sure everything was done and tidied up before the left. Highly recommended.

Coast and hinterland, we know both
Tree work on a sandy Kawana canal block is a different job from a steep, wet acreage in Maleny. On the coast, it's salt-burnt trees, shallow roots in sand and palms over the pool. Up in the hinterland, it's big gums and rainforest trees on slopes, long driveways and soft ground after rain. We plan every job around the site: what's under the tree, how equipment gets in, and where every section will land.
