Seattle Bamboo Removal

Pricing: Starts at $300 and can range to $1,000+ based on area size, depth, and accessibility.

Bamboo might look beautiful in a planter, but in the ground it can quickly turn into one of the most aggressive, invasive plants in Seattle. Running bamboo sends underground rhizomes far beyond where it’s planted—popping up in lawns, garden beds, and even across property lines.

At Neat & Tidy Landscaping, we go beyond just cutting it down. We dig it out at the root, haul it all away, and, if you choose, install a root barrier to make sure it doesn’t return.

Why Bamboo Is a Problem

• Spreads Rapidly – New shoots can emerge 20+ feet from the main patch
• Hard to Eradicate – Thick, tangled rhizomes make removal labor-intensive
• Damages Landscaping – Pushes through beds, turf, and hardscapes
• Crosses Boundaries – Can invade neighboring properties and city right-of-way
• Persistent Regrowth – Cutting stalks alone won’t stop it

FAQs

Is my bamboo running or clumping?

If shoots are sprouting several feet away, it’s likely running bamboo, which needs root removal.

Will it come back?

Not if rhizomes are fully removed and a barrier is installed. Without that, regrowth is possible.

Do you use machinery?

When possible—we bring in machines for large or deep-rooted infestations.

Do you offer barrier installation?

Yes—24–30” deep HDPE barriers to protect property lines, foundations, and garden beds.
