What to do when a tree comes down
When a tree or large limb has come down on a house, car, fence or driveway, the first priority is keeping people away, especially if there is any chance of contact with powerlines. Trees tangled in wires are a job for the electricity distributor and emergency services, never a private crew or a chainsaw-owning neighbour.
For immediate threats to people or property, the SES on 132 500 is the right first call. For urgent but contained damage, the 24/7 emergency crews listed here carry out make-safe work: removing the immediate hazard, tarping damage and clearing access, with the full removal or repair often following later. If an insurance claim is likely, photograph everything before work starts and check whether your insurer wants to approve the contractor.
After a big storm, demand spikes and so do door-knockers offering cheap urgent tree work for cash. Established local crews with a real business name, insurance paperwork and a fixed contact number are the safer choice, even if you wait a little longer. Hung-up branches and tension-loaded fallen timber are genuinely dangerous to cut without training.

Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency & Storm Tree Work
If anyone is hurt or the tree is on powerlines, call 000 and keep everyone well clear. For immediate threats to people or property, call the SES on 132 500. For urgent but contained damage on your own property, a 24/7 emergency tree service can make the site safe and clear access.
Home policies commonly cover removing a tree that has fallen on an insured structure, but the details vary, and some insurers want to appoint or approve the contractor. Photograph the damage before any work starts, keep every invoice, and check with your insurer before booking non-urgent work.
Most councils have exemptions for trees that are an immediate risk to people or property, but they often require evidence such as photos or an arborist’s note, and the exemption usually covers only the hazardous part. Photograph everything first and ask the crew, then confirm with your council for any follow-up removal.
Make-safe means removing the immediate danger: cutting away hanging limbs, taking the weight off crushed structures, tarping exposed damage and clearing access. The full removal, stump grinding and repairs are often scheduled separately once the site is safe and any insurance assessment is done.
