Nagytarcsa gardens in the Szilas valley

Nagytarcsa lies on the western edge of the Gödöllő Hills in the shallow valley of the Szilas stream, bordered by Budapest’s Districts 16 and 17 as well as Kistarcsa and Isaszeg. The village is mostly made up of family homes with gardens, and here the garden is an important part of the house.

From Rákosmente we only have to step across the boundary to fell a tree, grind out its stump and put the garden around it back in order. In Nagytarcsa this matters all the more because the local decree also requires felled trees to be replaced, and we can plant the new tree for you as well.

Strict tree removal rules in Nagytarcsa

In 2025 Nagytarcsa adopted a new tree decree (18/2025. (V. 27.)) with a low permit threshold: a tree in a garden within the built-up area may only be felled with a final tree felling permit once its trunk reaches 9 centimetres in diameter, measured at a height of 1 metre. The town clerk (jegyző) decides on the permit and on replacement, and the permit is valid for one year.

Felled trees must be replaced by the same number of nursery-grown trees with a trunk diameter of at least 6 centimetres, although fruit trees and invasive species don’t count as replacements. If the felling wasn’t due to construction, you have one year to replant. A tree posing an immediate danger must be felled without delay, but the town clerk must be notified in writing within 3 days.

When are you allowed to mow in Nagytarcsa?

In Nagytarcsa, noisy garden work is governed by the community conduct decree (11/2026. (V. 27.)), in force since July 2026. In residential areas, motor mowing, motorised tree felling and the use of garden tractors are permitted between 7:00 and 20:00 on working days and between 8:00 and 17:00 on Saturdays.

Noisy garden work is banned on Sundays and public holidays, so on those days our mowers and chainsaws take a break too.

Green waste in Nagytarcsa

Since 2025, waste in Nagytarcsa has been collected by MOHU Budapest. According to the local council, Christmas trees without decorations are collected in January and February, and from March the green waste round comes every other Wednesday. Collection bags here are not free: you can buy them at MOHU customer service offices and from its resellers.

There’s no point saving the trunk and thick branches of a felled tree for collection day, because if you ask, we’ll haul them away at the end of the job.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit to cut down a tree in Nagytarcsa?

Yes. A tree in a garden within the built-up area with a trunk diameter of at least 9 centimetres needs a final tree felling permit, issued by the town clerk (jegyző). Fruit trees and invasive species are the exception. During the survey we’ll measure the tree and help you submit the application, and our separate page on permits has further details.

Can I mow the lawn on a Sunday in Nagytarcsa?

No. Under the decree, motor mowing in residential areas is banned on Sundays and public holidays, just like any other noisy garden work. During the week you can mow freely, though: between 7:00 and 20:00 on working days and between 8:00 and 17:00 on Saturdays.

What should I do if a tree in my garden has died?

It must be felled within one year of drying out, and under Nagytarcsa’s decree the felling must be notified in writing at least 30 days in advance. We’re glad to do the work: we fell the tree, grind out the stump and, if you like, plant a new tree in its place.
