Your Local Tree Service in Fleetwood
River Birch Tree Service is a locally owned, fully-insured tree company serving Fleetwood — the New River community on the Ashe–Watauga line near Todd — and the rest of Ashe County. We handle everything from a single hazardous removal to full land clearing, and storm calls go to the front of our schedule when a tree comes down. Fleetwood is one of the closest Ashe communities to our Deep Gap base, so we get out here fast when a tree comes down.
Fleetwood gets River Birch's fastest Ashe-County response because it's practically next door to our Deep Gap base. Riverside families here trust us to handle the New River's big hardwoods and clean up the bank properly — quick to reach and thorough once we're there.
Tree Conditions in Fleetwood
Fleetwood lies along the South Fork of the New River near the Ashe–Watauga line at about 3,000 feet, a rural riverside community of farmland, second homes, and wooded lots — and one of the closest Ashe communities to our Deep Gap base. Large river-bottom hardwoods and sycamores grow here, and high water undercuts and leans them over time.
Fleetwood work centers on riverside hardwood removals and cleanup when the New River rises and takes bank trees with it, plus clearing and storm response on the surrounding wooded and farm lots. Because it's a short reach from Deep Gap, we respond quickly when a tree comes down out this way.
Fleetwood spreads along the South Fork of the New River and the Idlewild and Fleetwood-Todd roads near the Ashe–Watauga line, a rural riverside mix of farmland, second homes, and wooded lots. Big river-bottom hardwoods and sycamores grow along the water, and spring high water leans and undercuts them over time.

What Fleetwood-Area Homeowners Say
Real 5-star Google reviews from around the High Country.
- Storm Emergency
I had a tree emergency from the last rain and wind we had in Boone NC. I called River Birch Tree Service and they came out to look that same day. I was amazed they came that soon! They came the next day and went hard to work with the mess I had. They really were a godsend! They worked very hard, and left my yard very neat. Everything was hauled off and there was a lot! I would recommend this business to anyone.
- Big Project
The crew performed an excellent job on the gigantic project I had for them at my cabin. The execution and eventual clean up was very professional. I would recommend anyone in need of small or large tree services to use this great company. I will definitely be using them for services in the near future. Thank you Ezekiel and crew!!
- Fallen Trees
Great owner and crew. Have had them remove and cut up many fallen trees and limbs of various sizes that were difficult to deal with, but they were able to handle them. They work fast and do a fantastic job with very good clean up. Follow instructions perfectly. Highly recommend them. The owner is very personable and a pleasure to work with.
