Depends on where you live. I am in Kent and I had 2 mature trees and 1
small apple tree felled and a crown reduction on a large silver birch. It
came to £280 and that included then removing all the rubbish. And they were
proper tree surgeons. A friend told me that if a tree surgeon turns up with
a ladder send him away!!

If you're in Kent/Surrey/Sussex I can give you their name.
