Before you remove a tree in Uxbridge

Durham Region's Woodland By-law covers woodlands of one hectare (2.5 acres) or more. If you plan to cut trees in a woodland that size, you may need a permit from the Region. Removing dead or hazardous trees is one of the listed exemptions. Wooded areas under one hectare are left to the local municipality.

For a single tree on a house lot, ask the Township of Uxbridge before you cut.

Source: Region of Durham, Woodland By-law. Read 13 November 2026. Rules change, so check with the municipality before you cut.

What customers say

  • Robert removed a tree and trimmed up the rest to assure healthy growth and potential for any hazards. Also trimmed up my cedars and front overgrown umbrella tree.

  • Urban Contracting provided great service after the Canada Day storm damaged the trees in my backyard. The crew completed the tree removal safely, efficiently, and they left the property clean when the work was finished.
