Safe sectional dismantling for hazardous, dead or unwanted trees on residential and commercial sites.

How we handle the work
We walk the site with you, confirm targets underneath (roof, fence, services) and plan rigging, sectional drops or crane assistance where access demands it. Cuts are sequenced to keep control, then branches and timber are chipped or stacked for removal. We can bundle stump grinding so the lawn or driveway is usable again.
Safety & insurance
Kenny's Tree & Stump Removal is fully insured. We use appropriate PPE, exclusion zones and lowering lines near structures. We never work on trees in contact with live powerlines—your electricity distributor must make the area safe first.
Clean-up & disposal
Green waste is chipped on site where practical or removed from the property. We rake and blow work zones and protect paving where we can.
Residential & commercial removals
From single backyard trees to multiple specimens on rental portfolios, we scale crew and equipment to the block. Bayside terraces, Mentone bungalows and Glen Waverley acreage all present different access puzzles—we solve them before the first cut.
Council & permit context
Tree protection rules vary by council, overlay and tree size. We cannot guarantee permit outcomes, but we will flag when a local law may apply and suggest you check with your council before booking removal.

Frequently asked questions
Do you remove large trees near buildings?
Yes. We plan removals with rigging and controlled lowering to reduce risk to structures, services and people.
Can stump grinding be included?
Yes. Grinding after removal leaves the site ready for turf, paving or planting.
Do I need council approval to remove a tree?
It depends on your council, overlays and the tree. Rules differ across Bayside, Kingston, Glen Eira, Monash and Frankston areas. We will flag when a permit may apply, but you should confirm with your local council before work proceeds—we cannot guarantee permit outcomes.
How much does tree removal cost?
Price depends on tree size, access, proximity to structures, disposal and whether stump grinding is included. Send photos and your suburb for a free quote—call 0419 370 423 or use our contact form.
Can you remove trees close to fences, roofs or powerlines?
Yes, with planning. We use rigging and sectional dismantling near buildings. Trees touching live powerlines must be made safe by your electricity distributor first—we attend once that hazard is managed.
Do you take away the green waste?
Yes. Branches and timber are chipped on site where practical or removed from the property. We leave driveways and work areas tidy.
Do you grind stumps after tree removal?
Yes. Stump grinding can be bundled with removal so lawns and paving routes are usable again.
Can you help after storm damage?
Yes. We prioritise hazardous hangers and blocked access after severe weather across Bayside and South East Melbourne.
