Land and brush clearing in Beverly Beach, FL

Last Updated: November 8, 2026

Beverly Beach is one of the smallest towns in Flagler County: about 1.1 miles long and a quarter mile wide on the barrier island between the Atlantic and the Intracoastal, mostly homes, a few commercial parcels and a large RV campground on both sides of A1A. Sunward Palm Coast Land Clearing clears lots, cuts brush and grinds stumps there, on lots where access matters more than size.

The permitting changed recently. Since January 1, 2026, the town has used Flagler County for building permitting and engineering and development review, through the county’s Central Permitting office, while permits from the past ten years stay with the City of Flagler Beach, which used to act as the town’s agent. Neither Palm Coast’s nor Flagler Beach’s rules carry over automatically, so we confirm the tree and clearing requirements for your lot with the county before we schedule anything.

The ground is island sand. The town’s soil sample is mapped as dredged sand, somewhat poorly drained made land, and dry sandy ground on the island can hold gopher tortoise burrows, where work within 25 feet needs an FWC permit. Lots are narrow and close together, so we work mostly by saw and small machine, fence your keepers and do selective clearing around the palms and oaks. Overgrown scrub next to a home is a fire risk worth cutting back, as our fire hazard guide explains for nearby Palm Coast. We haul the debris, since burning can’t meet Florida’s setbacks on a lot along A1A.

What a Beverly Beach job usually looks like

Most work in a town this size is small: scrub and palmetto cut back from a house and its walkways, a few trees removed for an addition or a pool, palm and pine stumps ground below grade, or one of the remaining vacant lots opened for a new home. Access comes off A1A, so we plan where the truck and trailer park, how the machine reaches the back of the lot without crossing a neighbor’s yard, and how we keep the street clear while loading. On island sand we cover cleared ground quickly with chips or planting so it doesn’t blow onto the neighbors. Where a new home is going in, we grub the footprint to clean sand and keep the rest of the lot as natural as your plan allows, in the same order as our lot clearing on the mainland.
