SYDNEY – As Sydney’s winter sets in, Alex Tree Lopping, a leading arborist business based in the Sutherland Shire, has launched a region-wide campaign focused on winter tree health and storm readiness, aiming to protect local properties and revitalize urban greenery during the cooler months.
Known for its 24/7 emergency services and expert tree management, Alex Tree Lopping is using the winter season—a time when many trees are dormant—to lead a proactive inspection and maintenance drive across the Shire, including suburbs like Cronulla, Gymea, and Miranda.
“Winter is the perfect time to prepare,” said Alex Demetriou, founder and director of the business. “Trees may be quiet, but the risks are not. Strong winds, soil saturation, and hidden decay can lead to major safety hazards. Our goal is to help residents identify and prevent issues before spring storms arrive.”

Focus on Safety, Sustainability, and Community
The Winter Tree Health & Safety Program includes:
-
Free on-site tree assessments for homes, schools, and businesses
-
Storm-risk pruning and structural support installs
-
Early identification of tree rot, pest damage, and root instability
-
Advice on winter planting of native and low-maintenance species
-
A “Save the Gum” campaign to protect aging eucalyptus trees facing fungal disease
In addition to safety, the program also emphasizes long-term urban canopy preservation, with Alex Tree Lopping pledging to plant one native tree for every hazardous tree it removes this season.
Rising Community Awareness
Following last year’s destructive storms that saw dozens of fallen trees in the Shire, local awareness of tree management has grown. Residents like Lauren Wills of Caringbah South say they now take tree safety seriously: “After our neighbour’s gumtree fell during a storm, we had Alex’s team inspect ours. Their advice was a wake-up call.”
Sutherland Shire Council has also voiced support for the campaign. “This is responsible business in action,” said Councillor David Lowe. “Winter is when we should be thinking ahead—about safety, biodiversity, and our shared environment.”
