Question: Is it more expensive to remove a damaged (or fallen) tree than a standing tree?
Top Answer (61% of 108 votes): In some cases.

Answer: In most cases
Explanation: Storm-damaged or fallen trees are unpredictable. Split trunks, twisted tops, and hidden tension/compression forces make every cut higher-risk and slower. If the tree is leaning on a roof/fence, entwined with other trees, or near utilities, we may need cranes, extra rigging, traffic control, or utility coordination. Debris is often scattered and heavier (water-logged), adding cleanup and disposal time. All of that can raise the price versus a healthy, climbable standing tree scheduled during normal hours.

Answer: In some cases
Explanation: It depends on the location. For instance, if the tree is on the ground, you won't have to climb it. However, if the tree caused a roof to cave in - there's an inherent safety risk. This risk may not easily be accounted for, as it can be difficult to ascertain the strength of the roof.
