Reliable Commercial Asphalt Paving Services for Okeechobee Properties
Asphalt Care Services LLC brings more than a decade of proven commercial paving expertise to Okeechobee, Florida, backed by the career knowledge of founder Earl Prickett—a contractor who spent 40 years mastering commercial asphalt work across major Florida markets before establishing Asphalt Care Services on the Treasure Coast.

Okeechobee, FL
Okeechobee is the county seat and sole incorporated municipality of Okeechobee County, located on the northern shore of Lake Okeechobee in south-central Florida. The city anchors a county of approximately 40,000 residents whose economy is historically rooted in agriculture—including citrus, sugarcane, cattle ranching, and dairy—and increasingly supported by tourism tied to Lake Okeechobee’s national reputation as the “”Bass Fishing Capital of the World.”” The city’s commercial base is concentrated along US Highway 441 (Parrott Avenue) and State Road 70, supporting retail services, farm supply and equipment businesses, healthcare facilities anchored by Raulerson Hospital, and the logistics and transportation infrastructure that serves the county’s agricultural processing sector. Airport Commerce Park, an industrial development with nearly 100 acres of shovel-ready lots near Okeechobee County Airport, represents the county’s effort to diversify commercial activity beyond agriculture. Okeechobee sits approximately 30 minutes from Florida’s Turnpike and 40 miles from the Atlantic Coast, positioning it as a logistics intermediate point between the Treasure Coast and Florida’s Heartland.
Okeechobee’s inland position on the northern shore of Lake Okeechobee creates a paving environment defined by high ambient humidity, seasonal flooding risk, and the heavy vehicle loads generated by agricultural and logistics operations. The lake’s substantial water surface creates persistently elevated moisture conditions in Okeechobee County’s subsurface soils, which can undermine commercial pavement base layers when water infiltrates through unrepaired surface cracks. Annual rainfall in Okeechobee exceeds 50 inches, with summer events capable of producing rapid and significant flooding that tests commercial pavement drainage systems across the city’s older business corridors. Agricultural equipment and heavy commercial trucks operating on Okeechobee’s commercial properties impose structural loads that exceed typical passenger vehicle standards, requiring base preparation and material selection that accounts for these load conditions. Properties along US 441 and SR 70 experience temperature cycling from Florida’s summer heat through cooler winter months that creates expansion-contraction stress in asphalt surfaces.
