Tallow Tree Services

Tallow Tree Services has been working out of Bangalow for over a quarter of a century, covering the NSW North Coast and across into south east Queensland. It is a broader operation than most tree companies: qualified and certified professional arborists on the tools, plus earthmoving gear and a hire fleet, so a job can run from the first cut through to a cleared and levelled block.

Tree removal and tree pruning are the everyday work, and the crew is fully insured and qualified. Emergency response runs alongside it, with a 24 hour emergency callout available every day of the week for trees that have come down on a house, a fence or a driveway. The company is blunt about the safety side of the trade, putting it as being relentless in the pursuit of safety.

Beyond the domestic work there is land clearing and firebreaks, slashing, earthworks and general property maintenance, which suits the rural blocks and acreage in the hinterland where the tree work is only part of the problem. Chipping and mulching processes what comes down, and mulch supplies are sold on from there. Tilt tray hire and EWP hire are offered to other contractors and to owners who want the machine rather than the crew.

On the paperwork side, arborist reports are prepared for councils and developments, and environmental services cover the vegetation management end. A report is often the thing standing between an owner and approval to take a protected tree out, and having the reporting and the crew under one roof saves lining up two businesses. The environmental interest is not just a line on the website: the company recently planted more than 1,500 trees, supports the National Landcare Program, and backs the Men's Shed in Bangalow.

Work is taken across Bangalow, Byron Bay, Mullumbimby, Lennox Head, Ballina, Alstonville, Lismore, Casino, Kyogle, Evans Head, Yamba, Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads. Phone 02 6687 2750 or 0401 208 797, at any hour.
