couple grand??????? WTF?

I recently had a tree cut down. 15m high, roughly 1m diameter (so much larger than this stick). 200 bucks, 1 hour of work.

Where the hell do those prices come from? You could also ask your friendly neighbour owning a chainsaw and a rope,- he'd probably do it for a crate of beer.

Because it’s so close to structure they’d have to take it down piece by piece. We’re also in a high cost of living part of the country, so that doesn’t help. It would definitely be a couple grand easy.

Holy fck! It probably is illegal to do it yourself, or you won't get insurance cash in case something goes wrong? I mean, how can anyone afford this???

Not illegal, but yeah, if it’s not taken care of by a licensed arborist and you break something, insurance ain’t gonna cover.
