Suggestions for moving a crape myrtle
 
In preparation for expanding our birdcage, I need to get a 10-15 ft. tall crape myrtle in our backyard moved about 10 feet.

Any suggestions on who can do it at a reasonable price?

Thanks!

When we expanded out lanai, T&D told us they could contract out moving our irrigation system and our plants, but there was a minimum charge and it could go higher. We chose to have the people who installed the irrigation and those that did our landscaping come back and do the work for us. But check with whoever is doing the birdcage to see if they have a subcontractor who can handle moving the plant.

Thanks.
I just got the quote back today from T&D and they offered to moved the tree for us.

I was suggesting to chain saw her down, move it in a wheel barrow to the street, then plant a new one further out. (I obviously have had not much luck transplanting).
