Tree Removal & Stump Grinding in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ

Point Pleasant Beach is an oceanfront borough on the Manasquan Inlet, known for its boardwalk. Salt spray, sandy soil and nor'easter winds are hard on trees, and small lots mean many trees stand right next to homes, so careful removals and storm-damage cleanup are frequent needs. Tell us about your job and we'll pass it to one local, independent tree company that serves Point Pleasant Beach.

Tree permits in Point Pleasant Beach

Point Pleasant Beach replaced its shade-tree chapter with a tree removal and replacement ordinance (Ordinance 2024-24), which was amended again in 2025. The rules include an application, replacement trees and, in some cases, a bond, with fees based on tree size (borough ordinances). Because the fee schedule is detailed, check the current requirements with the borough before you schedule work.

Local notes

Many beach-block homes have limited parking and access, so a crew may need a street permit or careful timing in summer. Off-season work is often easier to schedule.

Before you hire

New Jersey requires tree care businesses to be licensed through the NJ Board of Tree Experts. Ask for the company's Licensed Tree Care Operator number and certificate of insurance. For stump grinding, the free 811 utility markout is required before digging (NJ One Call).

Storm damage or a tree on a wire?

If there is immediate danger, call 911. Stay away from downed lines and report them to your electric utility. Then see what to do after a storm and what insurance usually covers.
