Frequently Asked Questions

How much does tree removal cost in Renton?

Cost depends on the tree’s size, condition, and location on the property. We provide a free, itemized estimate before any work begins.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Renton?

Renton regulates tree retention and removal under Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4-4-130. A Routine Vegetation Management Permit is required to remove more than three high-risk trees in a one-year period, or any high-risk landmark tree (24 inches DBH or greater, 30 inches for big leaf maple, black cottonwood, and red alder). Additional rules apply for properties in critical areas, such as steep slopes and shorelines along the Cedar River and Lake Washington. See the city’s RVMP permit page, our tree permit guide, or we can help determine what applies to your property before scheduling work.

How often should I have my trees pruned?

Most mature trees benefit from pruning every 2–3 years. Waterfront and hillside trees near the Cedar River or Lake Washington often benefit from more frequent health checks given critical-area regulations.
