Bumble Bee Tree Services

Bumble Bee Tree Services is a family-owned and operated business based at Earlville, serving Cairns and the surrounding region. Established in 2001 by Malcolm and Sarah Skelton, the business began as a lawn-mowing service before growing into a dedicated tree care operation, and today Malcolm remains the primary climber and tree expert with close to two decades of experience swinging high in the Cairns canopies. The team is fully accredited and insured, holds Cert III in Arboriculture and a Diploma of Forest and Forest Products among more than thirty credentials, and is built on reliability, dependability and genuinely friendly service.

The core of the business is safe, professional tree removal and tree lopping, taking down dangerous, dying or unwanted trees on residential and commercial properties with a real can-do attitude and careful attention to the surrounding home and garden. Closely related is tree cutting and expert tree pruning, keeping established trees healthy, well-shaped and clear of roofs, powerlines and driveways.

Once a tree is down, stump removal and grinding deals with what's left behind, grinding stumps below ground level so the area is clear and ready for new lawn, garden beds or landscaping. For larger jobs, land clearing removes trees and undergrowth to prepare blocks for building, development or a fresh start.

Suited to the tropical far north, Bumble Bee Tree Services also offers specialist palm clearing — safely removing fronds, seeds and whole palms from around homes and gardens — alongside its broader arborist services, providing qualified advice on tree health, safety and long-term care.

Malcolm, Sarah and the team believe the best advertising is a satisfied customer, and they work hard to earn every referral through quality workmanship and dependable service. Operating from 10 Lissner Crescent, Earlville, Bumble Bee Tree Services covers Cairns and its surrounding suburbs.
