Frequently Asked Questions
How much does land clearing cost per acre?
Land clearing typically costs $1,500-$6,000 per acre depending on tree density, terrain, debris type, and whether stumps need grinding. Lightly wooded lots cost less, while heavily forested land with large hardwoods costs more.
What is included in land clearing?
Full land clearing includes removing all trees, stumps, brush, and vegetation from the property. The land is graded and left build-ready. Debris is hauled to licensed disposal facilities. Selective clearing (keeping certain trees) is also available.
Do I need a permit for land clearing?
Most municipalities require permits for clearing more than a certain number of trees or disturbing a certain acreage. Environmental regulations, wetland protections, and tree ordinances vary by location. We help navigate local requirements before work begins.
How long does land clearing take?
A standard residential lot (0.25-0.5 acres) takes 1-3 days. Larger parcels of 1-5 acres take 3-10 days depending on density and terrain. Commercial projects may take several weeks.
Can you do selective clearing?
Yes. Selective clearing removes only specific trees and brush while preserving desirable trees, natural features, or buffer zones. This is common for homesite preparation where you want to keep shade trees or maintain privacy screening.
