Lot & Land Clearing: the problems we hear most
-
“I own a lot in Lehigh but live out of state.”
How we help
Send the parcel number and your plans. The provider visits, sends photos and a written estimate, and you approve remotely.
-
“I don’t know what permits or surveys I need.”
How we help
Vegetation permits and gopher tortoise surveys are flagged up front so the job is scoped properly from day one.
-
“I want to keep the good trees.”
How we help
Ask for selective clearing. Point out the trees to save, and the provider clears around them.
What kind of clearing do you need?
- Build-ready lot clearing: removing trees, brush and roots from a residential lot before construction
- Underbrush clearing / forestry mulching: taking out brush and small trees while keeping selected larger trees
- Invasive removal: Brazilian pepper, melaleuca, Australian pine and other invasive species
- Fence-line and easement clearing: cutting back overgrowth along property lines, ditches and canals
- Storm debris clearing on larger properties after a hurricane
Permits, surveys and wildlife — check before the machines arrive
Land clearing is more regulated than cutting down a single tree in your backyard. In unincorporated Lee County, clearing a vacant lot or larger acreage can require a vegetation removal permit. Protected trees and wetlands add more rules.
Gopher tortoises are a protected species in Florida and are common on sandy upland lots in places like Lehigh Acres and Buckingham. Burrows generally have to be surveyed, and tortoises relocated under an FWC permit, before clearing. Properties near wetlands or canals may also involve the South Florida Water Management District.
We don’t issue permits or give legal advice. Tell us the parcel and your plans, and the provider will explain what’s needed and who handles it.
Helpful details to include
- The address, or the parcel/STRAP number if the lot has no address yet (common in Lehigh Acres)
- Approximate lot size (a quarter acre, 1 acre, 5 acres, etc.)
- What you’re clearing for: building, fencing, a pool, resale, or general cleanup
- Whether any trees should stay
- Whether there’s a building permit or site plan already

Can vacant lots be cleared?
Yes — vacant-lot clearing is one of the most common requests in Lehigh Acres and eastern Lee County. Because of permit and wildlife rules, share the parcel details and your plans so the provider can scope it properly.
I own a lot but live out of state. Can this be arranged remotely?
Often, yes. Send the address or parcel number and your contact details. Providers can usually visit the lot, send photos and a written estimate, and coordinate by phone or email.
Do I need a permit to clear my lot?
Possibly. Clearing vacant land in unincorporated Lee County commonly needs a vegetation removal permit, and gopher tortoise surveys may be required. The provider should confirm the requirements for your parcel before starting.
Can you leave the good trees?
Selective clearing is common — mention which trees you want to keep, or ask the provider to point out the healthy, desirable ones.
