When a large oak looms over your roof or a storm-damaged cedar threatens your fence, the first question that comes to mind is, “How much will removal cost?” For Oklahoma City homeowners, rates can vary wildly, and outdated price books only add confusion. CountBricks solves that uncertainty by delivering real-time, AI-driven estimates tailored to your site, tree species, and disposal needs. Below, our residential construction experts explain the numbers, the variables, and how our platform lowers surprises on every invoice.
Local data collected through CountBricks shows that most removals in the metro fall between $450 and $2,100, yet several factors swing the final figure:
• Tree size and height – A 20-foot Bradford pear may require one climber and ground crew; a 70-foot pecan with spreading limbs demands more time, rigging, and equipment.
• Accessibility – Backyards with narrow gates or steep slopes increase labor hours. Crane access can raise price but shorten job duration.
• Species density – Hardwoods like elm and walnut weigh more per cubic foot than softwoods, adding disposal costs.
• Emergency service – Same-day storm response commands premium rates due to crew overtime and equipment rush fees.
• Stump grinding and haul-off – Leaving the stump, grinding it flush, or grinding below grade each carry different material and labor line items in CountBricks estimates.
• Small trees (under 15 ft): $200 – $550
• Medium trees (15 – 40 ft): $550 – $1,100
• Large trees (40 – 80 ft): $1,100 – $2,500
• Extra-large or hazardous removals: $2,500 – $5,000+
These brackets reflect the latest labor rates, fuel surcharges, and dump fees loaded daily into the CountBricks materials database. Because we pull data straight from regional suppliers and equipment rental partners, your bid never relies on six-month-old spreadsheets.
Most online widgets average national prices, overlook Oklahoma City disposal ordinances, and ignore site-specific constraints. Homeowners then receive surprise change orders after crews arrive. CountBricks eliminates that risk through live voice-to-estimate technology:
1. You walk the property with your phone.
2. Describe the tree, obstacles, and desired finish grade.
3. Our AI converts speech to line items, auto-pulls local pricing, and outputs a shareable PDF within minutes.
Tree removal isn’t an isolated task. It often precedes foundation pours, room additions, or new pool construction. Because CountBricks is a full-service residential construction estimator, we merge the tree line item into your broader project scope, ensuring:
• One consolidated budget covering demolition, haul-off, and new work
• Accurate scheduling so concrete crews arrive the day after stumps are cleared
• Automatic notifications when supplier fuel surcharges change
• Traffic control permits on tight urban streets
• Utility company standby fees when working near power lines
• Recycler sorting charges for diseased wood
CountBricks.com/services highlights such potential add-ons during estimate review, giving homeowners time to modify scope or secure approvals before work begins.
• Schedule during off-peak seasons (January – February) when crews discount to keep calendars full
• Combine multiple tree removals or pruning tasks for bulk labor rates
• Provide clear truck access by moving vehicles and outdoor furniture beforehand
• Opt for wood-chip mulch returned to your beds instead of full haul-off
• Use CountBricks voice notes to capture every site detail, reducing unforeseen extras

Many homeowners treat tree removal as an isolated chore, but integrating it into your overall residential construction plan unlocks significant savings. CountBricks’ unified platform lets you view the felling, stump grinding, and debris haul-off alongside foundation work, framing, and landscaping—creating a single source of financial truth.
• A Midtown bungalow renovation combined two interior walls, a driveway extension, and removal of three aging maples. By batching scopes, the contractor eliminated duplicate mobilization fees and cut labor overlap by 14 %, documented in the CountBricks dashboard.
• In Edmond, a swimming-pool installer used our takeoff tool to overlay the pool shell on the existing survey. CountBricks instantly flagged a sycamore in the excavation path; removal was scheduled a week ahead, preventing costly pump waiting time.
Oklahoma green waste centers adjust dumping fees monthly. Traditional quotes may ignore that volatility, but CountBricks refreshes rates nightly. Homeowners thus avoid mid-project up-charges and see a timestamped audit trail in every invoice.
1. Invite your builder to your CountBricks project space.
2. Share the tree removal estimate and allow them to merge with framing or concrete scopes.
3. Approve or decline suggested changes directly in the platform, maintaining full cost visibility.
