Expert leadership ensures exceptional tree care result
Tree Truck is led by Brett and Sharnell Stevenson, who bring passion and expertise to every project. Brett’s journey as a qualified arborist began in the UK, and his love for trees goes far beyond the job—it's a lifelong obsession. What Brett doesn’t know about trees truly isn’t worth knowing. Together, Brett and Sharnell lead a talented team, placing equal value on service, quality, and safety. Their hands-on approach ensures that every client receives knowledgeable advice and the highest standard of care.
Local experience and growth for your peace of mind
Since 2002, Tree Truck has proudly served the Whanganui, Rangitikei, Ruapehu and South Taranaki regions, growing from a single specialist vehicle to the largest locally owned Powerco-approved contractors in Whanganui.

We’re proud to play a key role in keeping our region both stunning and safe.
