When a Property Needs Clearing
Land clearing is about more than a single tree. It is the work of opening up a whole area, whether that is a wooded building lot, a backyard lost to brush or a fence line that has slowly turned into a thicket.
- Preparing a lot for a new home, garage or pole building
- Opening space for a driveway, yard or garden
- Reclaiming acreage overrun by brush and young trees
- Clearing fence lines and property edges
- Opening walking trails or sight lines on rural land
- Cleaning up after years of neglect on a newly bought property
If any of these sound like your property, a walk-through is the best first step. We can show you what clearing would involve and what it would leave behind.

Our Land Clearing Process
Every clearing job starts with knowing what stays and what goes. A clear plan keeps the work efficient and protects the trees and features you want to keep.
Walk the Property
We walk the land with you, talk about how you plan to use it and look at access, slope and anything in the way. You get a free estimate based on what we see.
Mark What Stays
Trees you want to keep, property lines and anything fragile are noted before cutting begins, so the plan on paper matches the work on the ground.
Clear Trees and Brush
Unwanted trees come down and brush is cut back, working across the site in an order that keeps the area safe and the cleanup manageable.
Chip and Haul
Brush and branches are chipped and debris is hauled with our dump trailer. Ask about cleanup when you get your free estimate.
Lot Clearing for Building Projects
Lot clearing is often the first job on a new building project. Before a foundation, driveway or garage can go in, the trees and brush on that part of the property have to come out, and leftover stumps can be ground down.
We work with you to clear what the project needs and keep what makes the lot worth building on. Mature trees along the edges can give shade, privacy and a windbreak, so we do not take them unless you ask. Telling us where the house, drive and outbuildings will sit helps us plan the cuts.
Clearing ahead of the build also lets your builder see the site. Any stump grinding the project needs can be part of the same plan.

Brush Clearing and Wood Chipping
Brush clearing takes back ground that has been lost to thick undergrowth, saplings and tangled shrubs. Left alone, brush spreads each year, crowds out grass and makes it hard to see or use your own land.
We cut the brush back and feed it through the chipper along with the branches from any trees we take down. Our wood chipping service turns piles of brush and limbs into small chips, which takes up far less space than a heap of branches.
We can chip brush on a clearing job, and chipping is also useful on its own when you have brush piles to deal with. Ask about chipping when you call, and we will include it in your free estimate.

Debris Removal With Our Dump Trailer
Clearing land creates a lot of material, and debris removal is the step that turns a cut-over lot into usable ground. Our dump trailer lets us haul debris off the site instead of leaving piles behind.
Hauling is planned into the job from the start, not left as an afterthought. Ask about cleanup when you get your free estimate, so you know what the hauling covers.
When you ask for an estimate, tell us what comes next on the property, whether that is a builder staking out a foundation, a contractor laying a driveway or you seeding a new lawn, so the plan fits it. That way the clearing and the hauling match what the property needs.
What Affects Land Clearing Cost?
No two properties are alike, so each land clearing job is priced after we walk the site. Your estimate is free, and we have options to fit every budget.
- The size of the area to clear
- How many trees there are and how large they are
- How thick the brush and undergrowth are
- Slope, wet ground and how easy the site is to reach
- Whether stumps need to be ground
- How much chipping and hauling the job needs
Seniors and veterans receive a discount. Let us know when you call, along with a rough idea of the size of the property.

Land Clearing Questions From Property Owners
Do not see your question? We answer 24 hours a day.
(715) 701-9234How much land can you clear?
We take on clearing jobs from a single overgrown backyard to whole lots. The size of the job mostly affects how long it takes and how much chipping and hauling it needs. Walk the property with us during a free estimate, and we will tell you what the work would involve and how we would approach it.
Do you remove the stumps when clearing a lot?
Stumps can be handled as part of the same project. When a lot is being cleared for a building, a driveway or a lawn, stumps usually need to go so the ground can be graded and used. We can grind them below the surface after the trees come down, and we include that in your clearing estimate when you ask.
Can you leave some trees standing?
Yes. You may want to keep the best trees for shade, privacy or a windbreak, and we can clear around them. Before work begins, we walk the land together and mark the trees that stay. That way the finished lot looks the way you pictured it, with open space where you need it and trees where you want them.
What do you do with the brush and branches?
Brush and branches are chipped on site, which shrinks large piles down to a much smaller volume. Other clearing debris is hauled with our dump trailer. Ask about cleanup when you get your free estimate, and we will explain what hauling the job includes for your property and your plans for it.
Is there a best season for clearing land?
Land can be cleared most of the year, and the right season depends on the site. Frozen ground in winter can make wet or soft areas easier to reach, while dry summer and fall weather suits other properties. If you have a building schedule, call early so we can plan the clearing around it.
