Land Clearing

If you’ve recently purchased or acquired land to build a home or commercial business on or need to clear the way for a large agricultural project, then congratulations!  Your dreams are right around the corner.

One of the things you may have to consider is Land Clearing.  

So what is Land Clearing?

Land clearing is all about transforming land so it can be utilized, whether for a construction project or to open the space up and make it available. Through this process trees are removed, stumps cleared away, brush cutback, and any stones that may impede progress moved out of the way too – effectively allowing us to create something new from existing terrain. Bulldozers, stump grinders, tree pruners, and excavators are just a few of the many tools and machinery often used for land clearing.

Reasons for Land Clearing

Land clearing is a major undertaking and can be used to further many different types of projects. For farmers, the land needs to be cleared for optimal planting conditions, while homeowners may need the same service in order to accommodate construction or residence on their property. The job requires dedicated labor – tree removal and brush clearing are no simple tasks that must not go overlooked! Many find it more financially beneficial in the long run to hire professional help with heavy machinery than take this project into your own hands unless you’re prepared for a lot of time investment as well as drastic costs associated with equipment rental.

Do your homework

Before you investigate the actual act of land clearing, you’ll need to understand the full scope of work involved.  Consider the below steps are your starting point.

Understand the equipment needed

• • Chainsaw, with multiple chains
  • Stump grinder
  • Brush-clearing machine
  • Hatchet
  • Backhoe
  • Bulldozer
  • Various miscellaneous tools

Walk the property to inspect your land thoroughly.  Become familiar with what you want to be cleared away and take notes.

Look into building and zoning permits.  You may have already done this before purchasing the land, but you’ll need to be informed of any rules that you need to abide by before building on your new land.  Tidd Tree can be of service in this area, or you can contact your local Urban Planning office.
