Canary Island Date palm is not a native and under no protective clauses in TV, State of FL, nor any county in FL.

Your tree may be a wonderful specimen, but removal by any of the mediocre landscape install companies mentioned will cost you, and plenty. The hard truth is that for a tree like yours to be properly 'balled n burlaped' requires specialized equipment and skills. It would cost more to remove your tree and repair the hole and possible damages underground than it costs to buy a tree exactly like it, from a reputable tree farm.
