Silver maple is the most over-planted large tree in Indiana's street tree population — roughly 18% statewide and about 14% of Indianapolis street trees — because it was the default fast shade tree in subdivisions built from the 1950s through the 1970s. Those trees are now 50-70 years old and hitting the age where the codominant unions they grew fail, which is why silver maple lands on more central Indiana storm quotes than any other species.

What it costs around Greenwood
A mature silver maple is a large tree, which in this market usually puts the work between $400 and $1,900. 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
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
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.
