Past Land Clearing Project

3-Acre Land Clearing

The owners wanted space for an additional barn on their lightly wooded 3-acre property. We removed the unwanted trees and underbrush, ground the specified stumps and hauled away the clearing debris. This opened the footprint for the next stage of property preparation.

How We Clear Your Land

First, we walk the lot and mark what stays and what goes. An excavator with a bucket and hydraulic thumb handles trunks and specified stumps. Loader and root-rake work gathers the debris. We haul or process it as agreed; grading is a separate step.

Pine, Oak and Sweetgum Lots Around Auburn

Auburn lots can mix loblolly pine, water oak and sweetgum with dense regrowth beneath them. Rolling ground and changing soil conditions affect equipment routes. We assess actual trees, retained roots and the planned footprint before cutting. Stump extraction, debris hauling and grading are separate items in your quote.

Land Clearing Questions,
Clear Answers.

Do I need approval before clearing land in Auburn?

It depends on the work and address. Auburn says its tree ordinance covers public trees, and right-of-way tree work needs a Street Tree Permit. Development clearing and grading can still need City erosion-control and grading approvals. We check the actual parcel and scope; routine field mowing is a different task.

What happens to the brush and debris?

Bush-hogging cuttings and forestry mulch normally stay on the property. For land clearing and tree removal, we agree on hauling, stump work and any material left on-site. Those details belong in your quote.

When does Alabama construction stormwater coverage apply?

ADEM generally requires coverage for construction disturbing one acre or more, smaller sites within a qualifying common development plan, and sites with certain water-quality risks. Exemptions depend on the activity. Local approvals are separate, and clearing for a future development should be checked before work begins.
