Not a Chain compared 3,293 arborists in Australia, with 126,834 Google reviews between them. Of these, 2,348 meet this list's method. The median rating is 5.0 from a median of 12 reviews.
Of the arborists compared, the most reviewed is Dymocks Melbourne, with 3,001 Google reviews at 4.6.
How this list is ranked
Businesses are ranked as in the fairly rated method, but only those whose name and website each appear in no more than two places in Australia are listed, so chains and franchises are left out. Each needs at least five Google reviews.
A business that shares its name with unrelated businesses elsewhere can be left out by mistake, and being part of a chain says nothing about quality.
