Land clearing in Montgomery, AL
Land clearing in Montgomery, AL
Trees and brush cleared for a home site, a drive, a pasture or a pond.
Land clearing takes a wooded or grown-up piece of land and opens it up: trees out, brush cleared and the ground left ready for whatever comes next. Around Montgomery, AL, we clear for home sites, drives, pastures and pond spots, and usually go straight on into the site prep.
A lot of the land people buy around here is wooded or grown up. Before a house, a drive or a pasture can go in, it has to come clear. That's often where your project starts: with the trees that are in the way.
Because we also do the cut and fill, the grading and the house pad, your ground doesn't sit half-finished between one crew leaving and another showing up. The same two brothers who clear it shape it.
What’s included
- Trees out of the way. Trees taken out where the house, drive or pasture goes.
- Brush and undergrowth. Thick growth cleared from the area.
- Raked and piled. Debris raked up and piled so the ground is open.
- Keeper trees. The trees you want to keep, marked and left standing.
- Pond spots and drives. Clearing for a new pond or the path of a drive.
- Ready for the next step. Ground ready for the house pad, drive or pasture.
Clearing for a home site
If you're building, clearing comes first. We clear the footprint of the house, the drive and the yard, and leave the trees you want to keep. Then the same two of us cut, fill and grade, so clearing and site prep happen back to back instead of weeks apart. The photos on this page show clearing in hardwoods and in tall pines.
Pastures, pond spots and wooded lots
Not every clearing job is for a house. We clear grown-up pasture, the spot for a new pond, the path for a drive or a farm road, and wooded lots you want to open up and use. For brush you'd rather grind down than pull and pile, see forestry mulching.
Keeping the trees worth keeping
Clearing doesn't mean taking everything. Big oaks and pines give a home site shade and character, and they're hard to replace. Walk the land with us and show us what stays. We'll mark it and work around it, and we'll tell you if a tree is too close to where the house or the drive has to go.
What moves the price of land clearing
How much land, how thick it is, how big the trees are, what happens to the debris and how much grading comes after. A light, grown-up pasture and a stand of big hardwoods are two very different jobs. The estimate is free, and we'll walk it with you first.

Questions about land clearing
Can you leave some trees standing?
Yes. Show us the trees you want to keep and we'll clear around them.
Do you do the site prep after clearing?
Yes. Most clearing jobs run straight into site prep: the cut and fill, the grading and the house pad.
What happens to the trees and brush?
We rake and pile it so the ground is open. Tell us what you'd like done with it and we'll work it into the plan.
How much does land clearing cost?
It depends on the acreage, how thick it is, the size of the trees, the debris and the grading after. Call or text (334) 320-8389 for a free estimate.
Is clearing or mulching better for my land?
If you're building, clearing, so the ground can be graded. If you just want the brush gone, forestry mulching is often the better fit.
