In Randolph the tree itself is only part of the price. Slope and access move the number most: a tall oak at the bottom of a steep wooded yard that has to come out by rope costs more than the same tree beside a flat driveway. Shallow ledge rock can slow stump grinding, soft ground near streams may call for mats, and long hauls back up a hill add labor. Open, level lots and jobs that combine several trees in one visit tend to come in lower.
| Job | Typical range | What moves the price |
|---|---|---|
| Small tree removal (under about 30 ft) | $300 to $1,000 | Open access and simple drop zone keep it at the low end |
| Medium tree removal (about 30 to 60 ft) | $800 to $2,500 | Climbing, rigging and proximity to the house raise the price |
| Large tree removal (over about 60 ft) | $1,800 to $5,000+ | Big oaks and tulip trees near structures often need a crane |
| Crane-assisted removal | $2,500 to $8,000+ | Crane rental, setup and crew time; used when a tree cannot be safely climbed or dropped |
| Tree trimming or pruning (per tree) | $300 to $1,500 | Tree size, amount of work and whether a climber is needed |
| Stump grinding (per stump) | $125 to $500 | Diameter, roots, access and minimum charges; extra stumps usually cost less |
| Emergency storm removal | $1,000 to $6,000+ | Tree on a structure, after-hours work and storm demand |
| Cabling and bracing | $300 to $1,500 | Number of cables, tree height and hardware |
These are typical ranges only, and the real price comes from the contractor's on-site quote for your specific tree and property.
