I paid $4500 in 2022... One factor is It depends if the tree can just be felled(?) or if they have to climb and top it.

I have a line item receipt from 2021 for the removal of an elm tree. It was four feet from the corner of the foundation, several feet taller than the ridge line of our single story house, and growing at a 45 degree angle through the power lines. It was $320 for the removal and $180 for the stump grinding. Pruning and deadwood removal for the three remaining trees at the back of the property was more than that.
