Felling is the process of cutting down individual trees, an element of the task of logging. The person cutting the trees is a feller.

Yes. By law, you have the right to trim branches and limbs that extend past the property line. However, the law only allows tree trimming and tree cutting up to the property line.

You may not go onto the neighbour’s property or destroy the tree.

Homeowners need permits to cut down trees in their own yards in some cases. Normally if it is an indigenous endangered tree. In some areas, certain types of trees can be removed without a permit, along with smaller trees under a certain diameter (usually 6 inches or less).

Also, the rules may be different depending on how far the tree is from your property line.
