North Port's Tree & Land Clearing Family Business
25+ years turning Southwest Florida's toughest tree and land jobs into clean, finished work — one honest handshake at a time.
Built on Hard Jobs and Straight Answers
G B Trees & Land Clearing LLC started the way a lot of good Florida businesses do — one truck, a chainsaw, and a reputation for showing up and doing what we said we'd do. Owner-operator Gary Hill is still on-site on the jobs, and customers regularly single him out by name for his straight answers and pride in the finished result. More than two decades later, we run cranes, forestry mulchers, and excavators across Southwest Florida, but the standard hasn't changed.
We're based in North Port off South Tamiami Trail, and we've cleared land, removed dangerous trees, and cleaned up after more hurricanes than we'd like to count — including the hard seasons that flattened neighborhoods across Sarasota and Charlotte County. When a storm hits, we're the crew neighbors trust to get a tree off the roof and the driveway clear.
From heavy commercial land clearing to a single palm behind the lanai, we bring the same care: the right equipment, real insurance, and honest advice about what your property actually needs.

Our Southwest Florida Service Area
We're rooted in North Port, working out of our hub off South Tamiami Trail, and that's where we're fastest — most of Sarasota County and neighboring Charlotte County is within an hour, including North Port's Wellen Park and West Villages, Venice, Englewood, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, and Sarasota.
For larger land clearing and forestry-mulching projects, and when a major storm calls for extra crews, we range across Manatee, Lee, and the wider region — from Bradenton and Cape Coral to Fort Myers and beyond. If you're not sure whether you're in range, the honest answer is a quick phone call away; see the full list of communities we serve or just call us and we'll tell you straight.
Trusted Across Southwest Florida
“Gary at GB Trees helped us with our post-hurricane tree damage and we couldn't be happier with their work. We got multiple estimates and GB Trees is very competitively priced. They are very responsive to phone calls/texts and were on time to appointments. We had a slew of things needing to be done — from tree trimming to tree removal to stump grinding and having an enormous root ball removed — and they were able to do all of the work in one day and left our yard nice and clean! They even took care of some dead trees/branches that we didn't notice but could have been a problem in the future.”
“Gary is a professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated business owner. He was on-site every day / all day until the job was done to his specifications. Congenial and hard working — his enthusiasm for the completed vision was evident. Gary takes great pride in his work, and rightfully so! You won't regret contracting G B Land Clearing!!!”
“Gary and his crew did a fantastic job on our landscaping. He took the time to walk through what we initially wanted to do, offered suggestions, as well as the pros and cons regarding plant and stone selection. They arrived on time every day, were polite and hardworking. Cleaned the site every afternoon before leaving and even offered to power wash the drive on the final day. Gary and his crew definitely went above and beyond our expectations and the result was even better than we had hoped.”
