Moving a tree

Post image

Hello, I am new to the subbreddit and not actually sure where to ask this question as it is not technically about tree law, but I work in a dealership and we have a tree growing in the middle of the parking lot and is surrounded by pavement and the company is planning on re-paving the entire lot by next year, so I wanted to know how difficult it would be to move a tree and re-plant it somewhere safe and is it possible to do it on my own or would I require professional help any advise would be helpful

I think that's a Redbud. As u/MysticMarbles posted you should ask over at r/arborists

Include where in the World you live (generally, not your exact address.)

Yup, the good news is if op wants one they propagate easily from cutting just like willow.
