Tree removal jobs here split between private backyard removals and trees on strata or body-corporate land, where written approval from the owners corporation is needed before work can start.

For a typical planted garden tree, whether you need approval depends entirely on your local council: some now require development approval to remove trees meeting their local criteria, while many still have no controls, so check your council's planning policies first. If the tree is remnant native vegetation, a state clearing permit may be required unless an exemption applies, and some exemptions do not apply in environmentally sensitive areas. Trees subject to development conditions or heritage listings need approval regardless.
Official WA tree removal guidance →Western Australia has no state-wide instrument protecting individual trees on private urban land; protection is council-level, with a growing number of local governments (for example South Perth, Victoria Park, Nedlands and Cockburn) adopting local planning policies and scheme amendments under the Planning and Development Act 2005 that require development approval before removing larger established trees. Separately, clearing native vegetation anywhere in WA is regulated state-wide under the Environmental Protection Act 1986 and the Clearing of Native Vegetation Regulations 2004.
A qualified arborist quoting your job will usually know whether your tree is exempt, permit-dependent or urgent, and many handle the council paperwork as part of the quote.

Storm damaged a big pine tree in our backyard. All three arborists were fully insured and provided detailed quotes. The removal was done safely with a crane and they even helped with council paperwork. Highly recommend!

Needed multiple trees removed before building an extension. The arborist handled council permits, removed 4 trees and ground all stumps in one day. Very professional service from start to finish.
