About Hurlburt Field & Okaloosa County

The neighborhoods around Hurlburt Field are full of Air Force families, retirees and landlords renting to both. The base is its own world for trees: on-base housing lots belong to the housing contractor, and this page does not cover them. Just off base, in Mary Esther and along US 98, the yards are ordinary private lots with live oaks, sand live oaks, slash and sand pines, southern magnolias and cabbage palms, the same coastal mix as the rest of the Emerald Coast. Sandy soil gives roots a shallow, wide footing and salt air off Santa Rosa Sound wears on the crowns, so when a hurricane soaks the ground, big pines and oaks tend to go over at the root plate or drop heavy limbs on roofs and fences.

Which government covers your address matters here. Some of the streets are inside the City of Mary Esther, which arranged its own debris pickup through DRC Emergency Services starting October 14, and some are unincorporated Okaloosa County, where the county began curbside pickup on October 14 as well. Both ask for loose piles at the curb with nothing bagged. The city's storm permit notice names roofing, electrical work, fences, docks and structural repairs and does not name tree removal, so ask City Hall, or the county if you are outside the city, about your tree before work starts. If you rent, the owner decides whether a tree comes down, and Josh can talk it through with whoever is home.

Services We Provide in Hurlburt Field

Near Hurlburt Field the work is storm-damaged pines and oaks taken down in sections over roofs, fences and driveways, leaning and cracked trees removed before the next storm, crowns trimmed back from houses, and stumps ground out. A climber rigs each piece down on lines, which matters on the close-set lots off US 98. Josh cuts the tree and moves the debris to the road. Cleanup and haul-off are extra and quoted by Josh, and haul-off happens only on big jobs, through a sub.
