Sassafras in central Indiana
Nobody plants sassafras in central Indiana — it arrives on its own along the back fence, the treeline and the old pasture edge, then ends up on a quote once it has grown tall and skinny over a shed, a fence or the neighbor's drive. It is a brittle pioneer species that gets tall faster than it gets strong.
Medium tree · $250–$1,400 typical
What moves the price on this one
- 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
- Debris volume and haul-off
Also searched as white sassafras, mitten tree, ague tree, Sassafras albidum — people often describe it by the mitten-shaped leaves rather than the name.
