Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property?

The need for a permit to remove a tree on your property in the Mornington Peninsula can depend on various factors, including the type of tree, its size, and its location. In some cases, if a tree is considered significant or falls under specific conservation overlays, a permit may be required.

However, emergency situations where a tree poses an immediate threat to life or property OR trees which are in council designated bushfire prone areas may allow for removal without a permit, although notifying the council is still recommended. Tree removal regulations can change over time, so it's crucial to check with the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council or consult our team for the latest information and guidance to ensure a smooth and compliant tree removal process.
