Choosing the right tree for your area can enhance your property value and save you time and money on tree maintenance and property damage down the track. It also means your tree can grow to its full potential.

Planting a tree is a long-term investment and Arborcraft can select the most suitable tree for your area and plant it too.

We can assess your location, soil type and drainage, as well as structural components to ensure your tree (from the root network right up to the canopy) won’t cause you any issues in the long run. Our aim is to ensure you have the right tree for the right place so it can be enjoyed for generations to come. 

Large and Small Tree Transplanting

Large trees add significant visual appeal and value to your property – they also take a significant amount of time to grow. At Arborcraft, tree care is a way of life for us. We see transplanting as a unique way to preserve the beauty which trees bring to our increasingly urban environments. Trees take many years to grow to where they are today, and if like us you don’t want to see them go to waste, why not take them with you?

We use the latest techniques, equipment and approaches to deliver innovative transplanting solutions. We transplant trees of all ages and sizes and take a ‘roots up’ approach. 

We’ll assess the new location of your tree for soil compatibility, including fertiliser, watering and drainage, as well as offer a post-transplant service to ensure the tree is taking to its new home as best it can – transplanting trees, particularly large ones, is a massive investment so we want to make sure it’s done properly.We commonly transplant large trees in areas undergoing development. In these instances we are happy to store your trees before transplanting them to their new location when the development is complete.


Palm Tree Transplanting

The iconic palm brings a touch of paradise to our urban environment – and fortunately, they thrive in Melbourne’s weather conditions. Using the latest techniques, equipment and approaches, Arborcraft will ensure a seamless transition for palms of all ages and sizes from one location to another. 

When to Transplant Palms

We recommend your palms are transplanted in spring when they’re undergoing root regeneration. This will help them take to their new location and encourage healthy growth for years to come.

Choosing the Right Location

We’ll assess the new location of your palm for soil compatibility, including watering, drainage and depth. When transplanting palms, we ensure that their fronds (their iconic leaves) are maintained, giving them immediate aesthetic appeal as soon as they enter their new location.
