PALM REMOVAL AND PRUNING
PALM REMOVAL
& PRUNING
Regular palm trimming by one of our arborists will keep your palm trees looking healthy and tidy. If the palm has outgrown its location you need to speak to the Tree King palm removal team; they are experts in all palm removal including Phoenix palm removal.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I PRUNE MY PALMS?
Palm trimming should generally be carried out at least once a year, sometimes more frequently to avoid damage from dead fronds when they fall off. Palms shed fronds naturally as they grow and is not a sign that the tree is sick or dying.
We can trim any species of palm including smooth tall Queen palms and the spikey Phoenix palm. Our skilled arborists can scale even the tallest palms without the need for a cherry picker.
REASONS TO TRIM PALMS
- Frond removal for aesthetics
- Frond removal for damage prevention
- Increased light
- Possum and rodent prevention
- Seed pod removal
- Husk removal

WE RECYCLE
Almost all our palms can be chipped through our specialist machines. If we can chip it then generally there is no extra disposal cost invloved. Unlike other companies we mix our palm mulch in with our other arborist mulch so it can go back on peoples gardens. Palm mulch is great when mixed in with other arborist mulch and left to age.

PHOENIX PALM REMOVAL
Phoenix palms can be problematic in New Zealand due to their fast growth and propensity to spread by dropping seeds.
The plant is on the the list of environmentally damaging plants which means in most cases they can be removed without resource consent, regardless of size.
Phoenix palm removal is a challenging task due to the sharp, poisonous spikes and unhygienic nests of pigeons and rats that frequently occupy the canopy. For health and safety reasons, our preferred methods of removal are either straight felling or utilising a crane or aerial lift (such as a cherry picker).
Phoenix palms are a lot easier to deal with when they are small, so if yours is in an inappropriate place we suggest you act now!
REASONS TO REMOVE PHOENIX PALMS
- Fast growing and seeds drop causing it to spread easily.
- Rats and pigeons nest in canopy.
- Dead fronds drop on property causing damage.
- Sharp, poisonous spikes.
- Pruning required annually.
