Booking tree work in Turvey Park

Turvey Park has some of the oldest housing stock in Wagga — dwellings running from the early 1900s through to the 1960s — and with it, some of the oldest and largest trees in the city. Big established canopy sitting very close to century-old rooflines is the defining tree-work problem here.

Older, larger trees are the ones most likely to need council approval before anything happens. At this age they're almost always past 8 metres.

Worth knowing about Turvey Park

• The suburb is bounded by Fernleigh Road, Glenfield Road, Coleman Street and Willans Hill.
• Parts of Coleman Street and Grandview Parade carry substantial older homes, with brick bungalows through the northern end — and mature street trees to match.

Permits and approvals

Turvey Park is inside the Wagga Wagga City Council area, so the city's rules apply: approval is needed for any living tree 8 metres or taller, native vegetation in a wetland, and any tree on the Significant or Heritage register regardless of size.

A dead tree is exempt only if it's on a lot no larger than 0.2ha. Council also publishes an Undesirable Plant Species list — palms, willows, privet, camphor laurel and others — which can go without a permit at any size. The full rules are here.

What you'll pay

Access, proximity to the house and what happens to the timber are the three things that decide the number. Height matters less than people expect. Keeping the wood for firewood can bring the price down.
