About Treebate.com.au
Helping Perth Homeowners Grow A Greener Western Australia
Welcome to Treebate.com.au — your independent guide to the Western Australian Government’s native tree rebate program.
We’re passionate about native plants, sustainable gardening, and making sure Perth homeowners don’t leave a single dollar on the table when it comes to greening their properties.
Why We’re Here
Western Australia is home to some of the most incredible native plants on Earth, yet our suburbs are losing their leafy canopies to development and our increasingly hot, dry summers.
The WA Government’s Treebate program is a genuine opportunity — $150 back in your pocket for planting a native tree that will shade your home, support local wildlife and help cool your street for decades to come.
However, we realised that many people either hadn’t heard of the program or found the rules confusing. They weren’t sure which trees “counted,” where to find them, or how to navigate the app to get their money back.
That is exactly why treebate.com.au exists.
Who We Are
We aren’t a faceless corporation. We are a small team with a genuine love for the land and over eight years of experience in agricultural operations and land management across Australia. From farming and livestock to land rehabilitation, we understand soil, plants, and the WA environment at a practical, “boots-on-the-ground” level.
Our goal is simple: to see Perth’s urban canopy grow while helping you save money.
What We Do
We guide you through the Treebate program Our articles break down exactly who is eligible, which plants qualify, how to buy correctly and how to submit your claim through the ServiceWA app. No jargon. No fluff. Just practical information that helps you claim your rebate successfully.
We are building a native plant marketplace Coming soon — a curated online store featuring Treebate-eligible native trees sourced exclusively from WA commercial nurseries. Every plant in our store will be verified eligible for the Treebate rebate and will come with the correct documentation you need to make your claim.
We share WA gardening knowledge Beyond the rebate program we publish practical guides on native plant care, water wise gardening, Perth specific planting advice and how to make the most of WA’s unique climate and soil conditions.
Our Commitment To You
Every plant we recommend is sourced from WA commercial nurseries — because biosecurity matters and because supporting local WA businesses is the right thing to do.
Every piece of information we publish is researched carefully against the official ServiceWA Treebate program guidelines. If something changes we update it.
We will never recommend a product or nursery we do not believe in.
Our Promise
We believe in supporting local. Every plant we recommend is sourced from WA commercial nurseries to ensure top-tier biosecurity and to keep our local economy strong. We research every detail against official guidelines, so you can plant with confidence.
Perth deserves more trees that belong here—trees that thrive in our summers and support our local wildlife. The Treebate program makes it affordable; we make it simple.
Let’s grow something that lasts.
