Callery Pear (Bradford Pear) in Plainfield, Indiana
Callery pear is the tree that splits itself apart on schedule — every cultivar carries the same built-in defect, a whorl of near-vertical stems meeting at one point on the trunk with included bark in the unions, so failure is a question of when, not whether. It has also escaped into fencerows and old fields across central Indiana, so most quotes on one are half hazard removal and half invasive control.

What it costs around Plainfield
A mature callery pear (bradford pear) is a medium tree, which in this market usually puts the work between $250 and $1,400. It's on the hazard list, and that matters for price: a compromised tree often can't be climbed, so it needs a bucket or a crane, and that is most of the cost.
What moves the price
How much canopy is coming off, and how high the work is
Whether a bucket truck reaches it or a climber has to go up
Clearance work over a roof, a drive or a service line costs more than open-yard
Number of trees — a crew already set up prices the second tree lower
Don’t sit on this one. Hazard species get more dangerous and more expensive to take down every season they’re left — the wood goes brittle, and a tree that could have been climbed last year needs a crane this year.
