If there is an established tree on your commercial property that needs to be moved before construction can begin then yes, it can be relocated. At Total Environmental Concepts, we work with councils, developers, and landscapers to ensure that your project can move forward without issue.
That said, transplanting and relocating trees is a delicate and intricate process, so it needs to be done by a skilled team who knows what they’re doing.
IHow do you relocate a tree?
Our team uses state-of-the-art equipment, including tree spade bobcat attachments to dig up the tree and ensure the roots remain intact for travel. The spade is 44 inches wide, which allows us to relocate with up to a 90cm trunk circumference. The design of this particular attachment means that we can also work around trees that may be close together without causing damage to the tree itself or the root system.
Once the tree is out of the ground we’re able to wrap the roots to ensure the tree can be transported to its new location without issue.

What trees can be relocated?
We specialise in transporting and relocating a variety of trees here on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. In particular, we work with:
- Xanthorrhoea johnsonii (Grass Tree)
- Xanthorrhoea glauca (Grass Tree)
- Brachychiton rupestris (QLD Bottle Tree)
- Palms
- Livistona Palms
- Feature ornamental trees
- Cycads
Ultimately, it’s important to treat the trees with care and ensure that no damage comes to them during the relocation process. Relocating the tree is also often better in the long run than removing it completely, as this is the more environmentally friendly option. and in some cases the trees are protected species.
