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.

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.
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.
