We are west of Girne and last year we used a man called Ramazan to trim two palm trees as they had become too tall for us to do. He, and I think it was his son, did a great job and cleaned up the trunks for the first time too which was quite a task. We arranged a skip to dispose of all the trimmings. I believe it was £50 per tree but maybe it's gone up now. His number is +90 542 880 20 92

If the trees can be climbed and you find a climber, responsible for the rubbish the price varies considerably.
I find now they pluck a price out the air and see your reaction.
Yes it's dangerous work, I fully understand that part but when I did them myself it is a great feeling. Unfortunately after 15 years it dawned on me the danger and I stopped and ask around for quotes for my customers.

Why post 3? It was a good price and a great job.

Ah confusion I believe. I counted yours as the 1st post, therefore mine was 3, £30 per tree. Maybe you don't count your own post?

All cuttings taken away, tidy job, 3 trees, 5000tl, so a bit less than £30 per tree.
