[CANUFNET] Street Tree Planting

[Lepa, Chris]

Good Morning,

The City of Winnipeg's current Contractor costs for tree installation on boulevards is presently $450.00 per tree, but the trees are purchased and provided by the Urban Forestry Branch at an average cost of $214.00 per tree (tax excluded) for 50-60mm caliper ball and burlap trees.  The cost of the trees for 2021 is based on our overall order of 2800 trees from four different nurseries.

Cheers,


[City of Winnipeg]<http://www.winnipeg.ca/>

Hello Folks,

I know talking numbers isn't a favorite pastime of most (and some people are shy); however, I am looking to do a quick benchmarking of contract rates for street tree planting and would appreciate any information that you may have and would be willing to provide.

I am particularly interested in the unit rate costs for supply and install of 50-60mm caliper ball and burlap trees with warrantee and/or maintenance on a city street. I am most interested in street tree planting costs, not park trees, however, would be grateful for any info you would be willing to share

Thanks in advance

Crispin
