Online permit check for tree trimming or felling in De Bilt

De Bilt has its own regulations regarding tree cutting and trimming. In some municipalities (Dutch: “gemeente”) you can cut any of your trees without a permit. Unless the tree is on the protected tree list of your municipality. In other municipalities you need to apply for a permit for even the smallest of trees and the permit request alone can cost a lot of money.
Permit or not, you are always required to adhere to the dutch Environment Law (dutch: Omgevingswet). It aims to protect wildlife and nature in general. Mainly applicable to occupied bird nests or year round protected bird nests.

The municipal tree regulations can be found in the “Algemene Plaatselijk Verordening”, or AVP in short, of your municipality.

Approaches to Tree Felling and Extraction

In scenarios where there’s minimal room below the tree or if sensitive items are present, we utilize climbing, speed-line, and rope lowering techniques to take down your tree piece by piece. The speed-line helps in positioning branches in a safe zone away from the tree. Climbing offers the utmost safety and precision to protect nearby valuables or goods, making it the most controlled way to remove a tree. For complete tree removal, we might employ climbing spurs with a flip-line or lanyard. However, when it comes to trimming, spurs are not used to prevent tree damage and the introduction of diseases.
