Here in Florida, we know that trees are a beautiful and essential part of our landscape. But when a tree falls—whether due to a storm, high winds, or natural decay—it can cause damage, block access, or create safety hazards. If you ever find yourself dealing with a fallen tree on your property, don’t worry—you’re not alone.
At Treasure Coast Trees LLC, we’ve helped countless neighbors in Vero Beach and the surrounding communities safely remove fallen trees and restore their landscapes. We put this guide together to help you stay safe and handle the situation the right way.
The first and most important thing to do is check that everyone is safe
•If a tree has fallen near or onto your home, make sure no one is inside the affected area.
•Stay at least 20 feet away from the tree in case of unstable branches or further movement.
•If the tree brought down power lines, do not approach it—call 911 and your utility company immediately.
💡 Pro Tip: Even if a tree looks stable after falling, it can shift unexpectedly. Avoid climbing on or near it until a professional arrives.
Once you know everyone is safe, take a look at the situation:
If a tree has fallen on your home, vehicle, or power lines, call emergency services and your insurance company right away. If it has simply fallen in your yard or across your driveway, you may be able to handle it with professional help.
Even if a fallen tree doesn’t seem dangerous, removing it yourself can be risky. At Treasure Coast Trees LLC, our team of ISA Certified Arborists has the right equipment and experience to safely remove fallen trees without causing further damage.

💡 Pro Tip: Most insurance policies cover tree removal only if the tree damages a structure. If it simply falls in your yard, you may need to cover the removal cost yourself.
Once the fallen tree is removed, take a moment to prevent future tree issues on your property. Here are a few ways we can help:
