Algester is an outer suburb of Brisbane, Queensland. The suburb is 18 kilometres south west of the central business district of Brisbane City. According to the 2016 census, Algester recorded a population of 8,433 people.

The suburb sits on the southern border of the City of Brisbane local government area. The areas that surround Algester include suburbs Willawong, Acacia Ridge, Sunnybank Hills, Calamvale and Parkinson.

The name originates of the name of the English Town of “Alcestor”. During the mid to late 1970s the suburb was named Ridgewood Heights after the Ridgewood Heights property development which took up most of the land in the area. However, the area has officially been known as Algester from 1972.

Since Algester is residential in nature it is important to do pruning to your trees. Pruning has several benefits- the most crucial benefit is keeping the people around the tree safe. Branches can fall from a tree at any time endangering people, power lines and buildings. Therefore, maintaining a tree by removing dangerous limbs is the best option. We recommend you let a professional to do any pruning that you are not comfortable doing yourself to ensure personal safety. For all arborist services call Treesafe today. We would love to help you!

It is important to note that a council permit may be required in order to remove a tree depending on whether it is protected by a Vegetation Protection Order (VPO). You will need to contact your local council for more information on removing a tree. Alternatively, you can ring Treesafe for more information or advice on VPO’s. See our contact list below:
