the difference between private and public trees

A street tree is any tree that has been planted along sidewalks or public spaces and is maintained by the city. These trees line most residential neighborhoods in Staten Island and, for the most part, are under protection according to city regulations. A private tree can be defined as those trees located on your property and, in most instances, are your responsibility. However, special rules apply if the trees are in close proximity to wetlands, parks, and coastal regions.

Note: The NYC Parks Department recommends that Staten Island homeowners verify if a tree is city-owned or private by consulting their title survey as a pre-requisite when planning tree work on your property to avoid issues.

FAQs

Tree removal costs in Staten Island depend on several factors, but at GreenLeaf Tree Care, we start with a $500 base fee that covers the initial on-site consultation with one of our experienced arborists. The final price is influenced by the size of the tree, its location, and any additional services needed, such as stump grinding or emergency removal. Large trees near homes or power lines may require special equipment and extra precautions, which can impact the cost.

We always provide a free, no-obligation estimate so you’ll know exactly what to expect. Whether you need a single tree removed or multiple trees cleared, we’ll customize a solution that fits both your needs and budget while keeping your property safe and looking great.

In some cases, yes. A permit may be required for tree removal in Staten Island, particularly if the tree is on public property or within a protected zone. If the tree is growing on private property, permits aren’t always necessary, but if it’s close to power lines, sidewalks, or shared property lines, the city may require approval before removal.

Handling permits can be a hassle, but we make it easy. For a flat fee of $250, we can manage the entire permit process for you, including submitting all paperwork correctly and making sure that it’s fully compliant with local regulations. If you prefer to obtain the permit yourself, we’ll guide you through the process to make it as simple as possible. 

The time required for tree removal varies based on the size and location of the tree, but in most cases, our team can complete the job in just a few hours. Small trees in accessible areas are relatively quick to remove, while larger trees with complex root systems or those growing close to structures may take a full day or more. If permits are required, the process could take additional time, depending on city approval. 

If a tree has fallen on your home, driveway, or power lines, the priority is safety. Avoid going near the tree if it’s unstable, and if it has affected power lines, call your utility provider immediately to report the issue. Then, reach out to us at GreenLeaf Tree Care, we provide 24/7 emergency tree removal, are ETAP trained and will dispatch a crew as quickly as possible.

Fallen trees can cause significant damage, and the longer they sit, the greater the risk of additional issues like structural damage, pest infestations, or landscape disruption. Our team will assess the situation, safely remove the tree, and clean up the area to restore your property as soon as possible.
