Aurora tree-removal bylaw

Permits handled, not punted

The Town of Aurora's Private Tree Bylaw (Bylaw 6362-21, in effect since 2021) requires a permit for the removal of most healthy trees over 20 cm DBH (diameter at breast height) on private property. There are exceptions for dead, dying, or hazardous trees, and for certain non-native species.

We handle the permit submission as part of the quote. You don't fill any Town forms; you don't pay separate permit fees on top of the quoted price. If a tree qualifies for a "no permit needed" exception, we document that too, so you have a record.

Tree removal questions

Aurora tree removal: common questions

How much does tree removal cost in Aurora?

Most Aurora residential removals run CAD $800 to $3,500. The price depends on tree height, trunk diameter, species, location on property, proximity to structures and power lines, and access for equipment. A small ornamental in an open lawn is at the low end; a mature oak over a roof with hydro lines nearby is at the high end. Stump grinding is priced separately at $150-$600.

How long does a tree removal take?

Most single-tree removals take 2-6 hours on-site. Larger trees, complex access, or work requiring crane assistance can take a full day. Stump grinding adds 1-2 hours per stump. We give you a time estimate in the written quote so you can plan parking, kid pickup, and any necessary hydro-coordination windows.

Do I need to be home during the removal?

Not necessarily, but we recommend it for the start so we can confirm tree identification, access path, and any property protection needs (lawn boards, mulch staging area). If you cannot be there, we ask for a quick walkthrough by phone or video before the crew starts.

What happens to the wood and debris?

Default is full cleanup and haul-away. Wood is sent to a chipper or a local firewood supplier; brush is chipped on-site or hauled. You can request the wood be kept on-site as firewood rounds (no extra charge) or fully chipped on-site (small chip-dump charge). Specify in the quote conversation.

What if my tree is hazardous and needs to come down fast?

Call us. Hazardous-tree assessments take priority and we can typically get a partner crew out within 24-48 hours. If the tree is actively threatening a structure, vehicle, or power line, treat it as an emergency: call Alectra first (for power lines), then call us. Emergency response pricing reflects after-hours scheduling.

Do you remove the stump too?

Stump grinding is a separate scope. We quote it alongside removal so you have one written estimate covering both. Most homeowners grind to about 4-6 inches below grade, enough for grass to grow back. Deeper grinds are available for landscaping or construction prep.
