Stump Grinding in North Fort Myers, FL

Where in North Fort Myers?

Give the company your road and cross street so they can plan the trip.

Tell them what the tree was

A palm stump, an old oak stump and a stump left by a storm are different jobs. Tell the company what kind of tree it was, about how wide the stump is, and whether roots run under a driveway, pavers or a slab. Photos help them quote.

The two-business-day rule

Sunshine 811 asks for a locate request at least two full business days before digging, and grinding counts. Utilities will mark their lines. Mark private lines yourself, such as sprinklers, landscape lighting or a line to a detached shed.

Deed restrictions and HOAs

Some North Fort Myers communities have HOA or deed rules about yard work, work hours or contractor access. Check before you schedule.

Is a county permit involved?

Grinding a stump from a tree that's already down is usually just yard work. Removing living native trees on larger parcels can fall under Lee County's Vegetation Removal Permit rules. Lee County's Vegetation Removal Permit rules come from its Land Development Code and apply in unincorporated areas. For questions about a specific parcel, contact Lee County Environmental Sciences at 239-533-8585 or [email protected].
