Arborist Business with Council Contract for Sale ST1587

Garden/Household | Business for Sale | Croydon

Secure your future with a highly profitable, long-term contracted tree services business in Eastern and North Eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

Business is a well-established, fully operational tree services business with over 25 years of trading history in the Maroondah and Yarra Valley’s high-demand bushland region. The business enjoys an enviable position with a major council contract secured for the next 4 years, with options to renew.

Key Highlights:

- Turnover: ~$600,000 and is stable for years

- Net Profit: $200,000 per year with the managing owner - not on the tools

- Additional $100,000+ per year easily achievable by working “on the tools” - taking total earnings to $300,000+ for a hands-on buyer

- Secure 4-Year Council Contract - provides guaranteed recurring revenue and strong credibility

- Excellent gross margins with low overheads – equipment can be stored at home

- Quality fleet valued at $167,000 - 1 X Ford 4WD Ute with tool boxes, 1 X Ford 4WD Ute/ Tipper, Vermeer wood chipper, STIHL chainsaws & all other specialised equipment included

- Simple, proven systems easy to run and hand over

Why This Business Stands Out:

The combination of a secured 4-year council contract with options to renew, plus the immediate opportunity to add $100k+ by working on the tools, makes this a genuinely rare and highly attractive opportunity in the tree services industry.

The current owner is retiring and will provide full training and a smooth handover.

Ideal for:

- A working arborist or existing crew/business

- A couple or family with an arborist experience or experience within the tree industry seeking a lifestyle business in one of Victoria’s most beautiful areas

- An investor looking for secure, contracted income with strong growth potential

Price: $420,000

This is a genuine, profitable business with long-term security and excellent upside.
