Our Proud History

In the 1950s Len Duke was raising his family in Caulfield and began a small business in rubbish removal for the local area.  Soon after, his son Frank joined him and they began to specialize in tree removal and maintenance.  Together with their little red truck, Frank and his father became the go-to men for the job, with clients across Melbourne and its inner suburbs.

Frank raised his family in nearby Malvern, and as the years went on it became a rite of passage for his sons and daughters to work on “the truck”, growing the business to what it is today.  Frank’s son Paul is now in charge of operating the business, as Frank Duke Trees continues to fulfill its reputation for quality and reliable service.
