Services you want jobs for

By submitting, you agree that TreeService.co may contact you by phone or email about joining the network. We'll explain how job requests and fees work before you receive any jobs. See our Privacy Policy.

Network status in Fort Myers: no operators are listed here yet. The network is being built, and we don't have job-volume figures for this area to share. We'll be upfront about what we see before you commit to anything.

How the marketplace works for operators

  1. Homeowners request jobs. They describe the work on TreeService.co by ZIP and service.
  2. We turn it into a quote request. The request is structured the way an estimator would want it, not just a name and a phone number.
  3. The request goes to a matching operator. It's routed to an operator in the network who covers that ZIP and does that service, not blasted to a list of companies.
  4. You quote and do the work directly. The job, and payment for it, are between you and the customer.

What's in a quote request

  • ZIP code and matched town
  • Service type and urgency (routine, soon, storm damage, emergency)
  • Residential or commercial property
  • Number of trees and approximate height
  • Species, if the homeowner knows it
  • Where the tree is and how equipment gets in
  • What's near the work: power lines, structures, fences, pools, slopes
  • A short description in the homeowner's words
  • Photos, when provided
  • Contact details and consent to be contacted

The Fort Myers market: what jobs look like

Fort Myers, the "City of Palms," has palm-lined historic streets, older riverfront neighborhoods along the Caloosahatchee, and newer development to the east. Requests here focus on palm care, big native trees near homes, and storm cleanup.

Do you need a tree permit in Fort Myers?

For native species, yes. The City of Fort Myers' permit guide lists "Tree Removal (Native Species)" as requiring a permit for both residential and commercial property, along with land and lot clearing (City of Fort Myers: do I need permits?). Applications go through the Building, Permitting and Inspections division.

Mangroves along the river are regulated separately, and the state arborist exemption doesn't apply to mangrove rules. Unincorporated Lee County addresses with a Fort Myers mailing address follow Lee County rules; the city's permitting page has an "Am I in the City?" lookup.

Trees and problems common in Fort Myers

  • Royal palm
  • Sabal palm
  • Coconut palm
  • Live oak
  • Slash pine
  • Gumbo limbo
  • Mahogany
  • Sea grape
  • Tall royal palms on historic streets and in yards need careful frond and seed-stalk removal.
  • Invasive Brazilian pepper and Australian pine are common clearing jobs (Florida Invasive Species Council).
  • Ganoderma butt rot is a fatal palm disease; a shelf-like conk on the lower trunk is a sign the palm should be removed (UF/IFAS PP100).

Hurricane prep and storm cleanup

Hurricane season is June 1 through November 30 (National Hurricane Center). Ian (2022) brought surge and wind across the city. Before summer, trim dead fronds and thin dense shade trees.

Report trees on lines to FPL. Native trees killed by a storm may still need a removal permit or documentation, so check with the city after a storm.

Hiring a tree service in Fort Myers

Confirm the company will pull any required city permit for native trees, and get the scope in writing. After big storms, verify that crews have current insurance and aren't asking for full payment up front.

Before any digging or stump grinding: underground utilities have to be located first. In Florida that request goes through Sunshine 811 (Florida), or dial 811. Ask any operator whether they place the locate request before grinding.

What Fort Myers homeowners ask about

From our homeowner guide for Fort Myers.

Do I need a permit to remove a palm in Fort Myers?

The city requires permits for removing native species. Sabal palms are native; many ornamental palms aren't. Confirm with the city's permitting division.

Can I trim mangroves on my riverfront lot?

Mangrove trimming is regulated separately and is excluded from the arborist exemption. Use a professional who knows the mangrove rules.
