A white-oak-group tree that actually thrives in the high-pH, limestone-influenced clay under a lot of central Indiana, which makes it one of the few large oaks that stays healthy on stripped subdivision lots. It gets misidentified constantly because its leaves are coarsely toothed like a chestnut rather than lobed like an oak — and that ID is load-bearing, because white vs. red oak group determines how dangerous a summer pruning cut is.

What it costs around Plainfield
A mature chinkapin oak is a large tree, which in this market usually puts the work between $400 and $1,900. Access does more to the number than the species does — a truck that can get close changes the job more than the tree ever will.
What moves the price
Height — a 20-footer is a few hundred, an 80-foot oak over a roof is four figures
Access — can a truck and chipper get to it, or is everything carried by hand
What's underneath — a clear yard versus a roof, a fence, a pool or a power drop
Condition — dead and brittle costs more than live, because it can't be climbed
