The cost may vary from the average price for shrub removal, depending on a variety of additional factors.
isolated bushes and clusters
If you are removing multiple plants, you will get a better price if each plant is an isolated bush spaced out on your property. Plants that grow in close proximity tend to have mixed root systems, which become difficult to remove over time.
season
The best time to remove shrubs and bushes is in the spring before the leaves grow, or in the fall after the leaves have fallen. In both cases, the bushing will be exposed, making it easier to remove.
Accessibility and location
The more effort a professional has to put in to access the shrub you want to remove, the more you will pay. First, the longer the distance a professional travels, the higher the fee, but most professionals charge a minimum moving fee regardless of distance. Once you arrive at your facility, the following accessibility factors can increase your final cost:
The distance of the plant from a driveable access point The location of the plant near homes and public facilities Conditions such as steep or uneven ground, rocky soil, or wetlands
For example, removing a shrub near the foundation of your home will cost more than removing a shrub in the middle of your yard.
waste removal
All removed shrubs must be disposed of as waste, which may incur additional costs. If that happens, you can expect to pay between $25 and $100 per share for waste removal.
soil replacement
Removing large shrubs or large numbers of shrubs can leave large holes in their place. Soil replacement can cost anywhere from $20 to $180 per cubic yard, depending on the type, quality, and amount of soil needed. You may want to hire a landscaper to help you.
