Wages in Arizona
Tree trimmers and pruners in Arizona earn a median of $24.36 an hour, or $50,680 a year (BLS, May 2025). Half of them earn between $22.11 and $26.43 an hour, the 25th to 75th percentiles (BLS state file). That's below the national median of $24.50 an hour (BLS).
These are wages, not prices. A contractor's price also covers materials, equipment, insurance, overhead and profit, so a wage can't be turned into what a job costs you. BLS counts employees only, not the self-employed.
