Tree work in Woy Woy

Old waterfront trees and low, wet ground

Woy Woy Memorial Park and wall is a local heritage item, and in the waterfront reserve beside it the old council's significant tree register listed a hoop pine and a date palm planted about 1920, when the park was established. Work on trees like those is a matter for the council.

Much of the suburb is low ground, and the council's floodplain plan was drawn up for the low-lying areas of Woy Woy facing sea level rise. In very wet spells the groundwater rises and flooding can sit for several weeks, which softens the ground under big trees and keeps machinery off the lawn.

Burrawang/Hillview Street Reserve holds one of the three largest remaining fragments of the endangered Umina Coastal Sandplain Woodland, so a tree near it is checked before it is quoted.

The council question is settled before any price, and nothing is booked until you have said yes to a quote in writing.

    The council question is answered

    Height, trunk size, distance from the house and the species decide whether a permit or an exemption applies.

  4. 4

    You get it in writing

    Scope, timber, stump and date on one page, and nothing is booked until you have said yes.

Woy Woy questions

The tip, and the heritage park

Is there a tip nearby for the green waste?

Yes. The Woy Woy Waste Management Facility on Nagari Road is one of the council's two facilities and takes garden organics for a fee, so loads from a Woy Woy job have a short trip.

Big tree on low ground?
