1950s POA Boating Community
North River Shores is one of Martin County’s oldest subdivisions — established mid-1950s as a family-friendly boating community on the North Fork of the St. Lucie River. The North River Shores POA manages four waterfront neighborhood parks, a duck pond, and a private boat ramp. Swift coordinates with the POA on tree work in shared areas and provides COI to homeowners in advance.
Reviews
Trusted Across The Treasure Coast
Quote arrived in three hours. Crew arrived the next morning. They took down two live oaks over the pool and you couldn’t tell anyone had been on the property by sundown.
Same-day assessment on a sketchy laurel oak leaning toward the house. Written quote in three hours, crew on-site the next afternoon, permit pulled, tree down, debris gone. This is how it’s supposed to work.
I called four companies. Three quoted prices over the phone (which I know is a red flag). Swift came out, walked the property, and gave me a written estimate the same day. Crew was professional, clean, and on-time.

Tree Removal
North River Shores sits along the St. Lucie River north of Stuart — mostly waterfront and near-waterfront lots, mostly mid-century homestead builds. Common removals are heritage oaks past saving, salt-stressed queens, or sand pines threatening the house. FDEP shoreline-buffer awareness on every river-facing job. ISA Certified Arborist, written quote in 4 hours, COI before any saw runs.
Learn moreTree Trimming & Pruning
Most North River Shores pruning is live oak structural work and queen palm cleanup on the dock-line properties. ANSI A300 cuts only — no topping, no lion-tailing on the heritage oaks that anchor most lots. River-edge work scheduled around tide windows.
Learn morePalm Trimming
North River Shores palms are sabals on the older lots and queens, royals, and the occasional coconut on the warmer river-protected pads. ISA palm protocol on every trim: no hurricane cuts, no climbing spikes on living trunks, tools sanitized between properties so Ganoderma rot does not move from yard to yard.
Learn moreStump Grinding
North River Shores soil grinds clean — sandy, well-drained. Depth matched to next step: 6 to 8 inches for sod, 12 to 18 for replant, deeper for paver pads or pool concrete. 811 location every job — the older North River Shores lots have shallow irrigation and original utility runs from the homestead era.
Learn moreEmergency Tree Service
North River Shores is 10 minutes from our Stuart yard. Storm calls here are heritage oak limb failure, queen palm uproot, and sand pine across a fence. A real person answers our 24/7 line. COI before any climber leaves the truck.
Learn moreHurricane Prep
North River Shores heritage live oaks are the storm priority, plus queen palms and any pine close to structures. We walk the property pre-season, photograph the high-risk trees, and write the case in a format the county, your HOA, and your insurance can all work from.
Learn moreLand & Lot Clearing
North River Shores clearing work is mostly partial — pool installs, dock cleanup, brush plus invasive removal along the river side. We coordinate with Martin County code and FDEP setback rules on every river-facing job. Shoreline tree work is not in our scope — we refer that to licensed specialists.

Call (772) 773-6676
North River Shores wraps the North Fork of the St. Lucie River — a quiet neighborhood pocket between Stuart and Palm City with riverfront lots, mature live oak shade, and a mix of mid-century and newer homes. The river views are framed by trees that have stood through every hurricane since the 60s.
North River Shores work emphasises canopy preservation. We thin for storm prep, never strip; we cable weak crotch attachments instead of removing; we document the heritage value of each river-frontage oak before any cut.

What sets us apart here
Why North River Shores Property Owners Pick Swift
The oak hammocks here are part of the property value. We treat every mature oak as preservation-first — structural pruning, deadwood removal, cabling where needed, never reflex removal because a limb is in the way.
Waterfront work also means waterfront-aware debris handling. No clippings into the river, no fuel near the bank, no equipment staging where the slope is vulnerable. We document it on every quote.

Local questions
Common Questions From North River Shores Owners
Can I remove an oak that’s shading my pool too much?
Usually a careful canopy thin solves it without removal. An oak that has been growing for 40 years adds more value than a few extra hours of pool sun. We’ll quote both options and tell you which makes sense.
Do you handle Martin County tree-removal permits?
Yes — permit filing is free on qualifying removals. We file with Martin County Building & Code Enforcement and host the inspection. Talk to us about your permit →
Sabal palm fronds in the river — is that a code issue?
Debris in the waterway is a county issue and a neighbor issue. We bag and haul every frond, period. No exceptions on waterfront lots.
How much does tree removal in North River Shores cost?
Every job is quoted from a free on-site assessment. Cost depends on tree size, species, access, and debris-removal scope. Waterfront lots with riparian buffer considerations may need extra planning. Itemized written quote in 4 hours.
How fast can you respond to an emergency in North River Shores?
24/7 emergency line answered by a human. Crews typically on-site within 60–90 minutes for active hazards. Call (772) 773-6676.
Are you insured?
Yes — $1M GL per occurrence ($2M aggregate) + Workers’ Comp. COI delivered before any crew leaves the truck. Happy to send your POA a copy in advance.
Do you haul off the debris?
Yes — standard quotes include debris removal and a clean property at finish.
