Washington DC is one of the many cities our tree service company works in.

URBAN FOREST PRESERVATION ACT (2002 & 2016 UPDATE) STATES:
DC Requires A Special Permit To Removal Trees On Private Property In The District.
- A special permit is required for the removal of all Special Trees (trees between 44” and 99.9” in circumference).
- If the tree is healthy and is not an exempt species, Special Tree Permits require planting replacement saplings or paying a replacement fee to the DC Tree Fund. (See Issuance of Special Tree Removal Permits)
- Trees greater than 100” in circumference are considered Heritage Trees and cannot be removed unless hazardous.
- Special Tree Fines: Failure to obtain a Special Tree permit or failure to comply with the permit’s conditions comes with a fine of $300 per inch of circumference of the tree(s) in question.
- If your tree is greater than 100″ in circumference it is classified as a Heritage Tree. Removal of a Heritage Tree in healthy condition is prohibited.
As a company we can help you through the application process for a DC Special Tree Removal Permit; however, we have no say in the decision to grant the permit and ultimately the responsibility for obtaining the permit lies with the homeowner. We will not perform tree removals that do not comply with the Urban Forest Preservation Act regulations.
