Tom's Possum Removals 

We are licensed by the Department of Environment and Science to safely and securely capture and relocate possums and brush turkeys when requested. These animals are protected by State law and are a vital part of our ecosystem, although they can become a pest or an attractant to snakes and other unwanted visitors. 

We have a range of service offerings and opportunities to safely relocate your unwanted house guest. But please note we are legally only able to relocate a possum within 25 metres of where it is caught, in order not to hinder the welfare of the mammal. We also recommend methods to secure your home and prevent unwanted mammals and reptiles from visiting again. 

​

Possum removal is not always a straight forward service, but with our package options we will be able to help you achieve a desired result: 

​

1. Possum trap 24 hour period, includes drop and collection of trap to Gold Coast property. 

2. Daily rate to have Possum trap at your property (ongoing after initial day). 

3. Immediate capture and relocation of Possum or Brush Turkey (if visible and accessible). 

4. Consultation for the prevention of unwanted Possums and Brush Turkeys, includes property/roof inspection.

Please note: As per our Damage Mitigation Permit we are only able to relocate a possum within 25 metres of the capture site.
