Coastal scrub and slash pine flatwoods dominate the mainland, transitioning to mangrove fringes and sea grape along the barrier islands. Interior areas feature remnant citrus groves interspersed with cabbage palm and saw palmetto prairie. TreeShop LLC provides professional land clearing, forestry mulching, and site preparation across Indian River County — serving Vero Beach, Sebastian, Fellsmere, Indian River Shores, Orchid, and 4 more communities.
Residential lot clearing for barrier island rebuilds, citrus grove conversion to residential subdivisions, homesite preparation on 5+ acre ranchettes in western Fellsmere, hurricane debris removal from coastal properties, lagoon-setback compliance clearing, and drainage improvements for flood-prone neighborhoods.
Forestry mulcher heads grind trees, brush, and woody vegetation up to 8 inches in diameter. Mulch stays on-site as ground cover — no hauling, no burning.
Full-scale clearing with excavators and track loaders. Standard full loadout at $5,000/day, finish and detail work at $2,875/day. Complete site preparation for construction or development.
High-capacity rotary mowing for overgrown fields, pastures, and grassy lots. Ideal for tall grass, weeds, and light brush that doesn't require forestry mulching equipment.
Below-grade stump removal for build-ready or landscape-ready sites. $450 minimum per visit. Most stumps take 15-30 minutes depending on size and root structure.
Quarterly to annual regrowth control for previously cleared properties. Scheduled return visits with forestry mulching or mowing equipment to protect your clearing investment.
Targeted removal of Brazilian pepper, melaleuca, Australian pine, and other invasive vegetation. Selective clearing that preserves desirable native trees and landscape.
Restore overgrown pasture and agricultural land to productive use. Mulch the overgrowth, grind stumps at grade, and leave a surface ready for seeding or fencing.
Site grading, drainage swales, retention areas, foundation prep, driveway cuts, and earth moving. Proper water management for Florida's flat terrain and high water table.
Complete removal of land clearing debris through hauling, on-site burning, chipping, or grinding. We handle the full lifecycle — clear the land, then clean it up.
Coastal scrub and slash pine flatwoods dominate the mainland, transitioning to mangrove fringes and sea grape along the barrier islands. Interior areas feature remnant citrus groves interspersed with cabbage palm and saw palmetto prairie. The Indian River Lagoon shoreline supports salt marsh and tidal flat ecosystems.
Continued barrier island redevelopment with higher-value homes replacing older structures, citrus industry decline leaving groves available for conversion, steady retirement-community expansion in Vero Beach, Sebastian population growth along CR 512 corridor, and Fellsmere's transformation from agricultural to mixed-use development.
The Indian River Lagoon, designated an Estuary of National Significance, drives strict setback and stormwater requirements throughout the county. Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge -- the first federal refuge established in 1903 -- anchors conservation priorities in the Sebastian area. Coastal construction control lines govern all barrier island activity, and the county enforces mangrove trimming restrictions under state statute. Gopher tortoise surveys are required before clearing on sandy upland parcels, particularly west of US 1.
Soil: Wabasso fine sand and Oldsmar fine sand are prevalent across flatwoods areas, both poorly drained with a spodic horizon. Coastal ridges feature well-drained Palm Beach sand and Canaveral fine sand. Near former citrus groves, Riviera and Pineda soils appear with seasonal high water tables. Shell mound soils (Shell Bluff series) occur along historic Ais Indian sites near the lagoon.

Indian River County enforces a tree protection ordinance requiring permits for removal of any tree with a DBH of 4 inches or greater in unincorporated areas. Vero Beach maintains a separate municipal tree code with heritage tree designations for live oaks over 24 inches DBH. Lagoon-adjacent parcels within 50 feet of mean high water require SJRWMD environmental resource permits. Gopher tortoise relocation permits from FWC are frequently necessary on sandy upland sites west of the railroad corridor.
