  • Brush and shrub clearing — removal of dense brush, shrubs, and overgrown vegetation that make land unusable or inaccessible

  • Stump removal and grinding — stumps ground down or removed so the cleared area is truly workable and ready for construction or grading

Residential Lot Clearing in Powell & Cody

Building a new home or adding a structure to your property starts with a clear, safe site. We work closely with homeowners and contractors to clear exactly what's needed — no more, no less — while protecting existing features you want to keep. We coordinate with your project timeline so the site is ready when your contractor needs it.

Agricultural & Rural Land Clearing in the Bighorn Basin

Reclaiming overgrown pasture, expanding grazing land, or clearing fence lines and access routes are common projects throughout the Bighorn Basin. We understand the pace and priorities of rural property work and have the equipment to handle large acreage projects efficiently. Whether it's a few acres of encroaching brush or a significant land reclamation project, we get it done.

Commercial Lot Clearing

New commercial construction, facility expansion, and site development all start with professional land clearing. We work with project managers, contractors, and developers to clear sites on schedule and leave them ready for the next phase of your project.

Our Approach

Lot clearing doesn't have to mean stripping a property bare. We work carefully and deliberately — removing what's in the way while minimizing unnecessary disturbance to surrounding vegetation, soil, and drainage. Where selective clearing is the right approach, we take it. Where full clearing is needed, we execute it efficiently and leave the site clean.

Every lot clearing project includes complete debris removal and haul-off. You won't be left with slash piles, brush mounds, or wood debris to deal with after we leave.

Lot Clearing FAQs

  • A full lot clearing project typically includes tree removal, brush and shrub clearing, stump grinding or removal, and complete debris and slash haul-off. The exact scope depends on your property and your goals — some projects require full clearing of everything on a parcel, while others involve selective removal of specific trees or vegetation while preserving surrounding areas. We assess each project individually and provide a clear estimate before any work begins.

  • Timeline depends on the size of the parcel, the density of vegetation, terrain, and access. A small residential lot can often be cleared in a day or two. Larger rural or agricultural acreage projects may take several days to a week or more. We'll give you a realistic timeline estimate when we assess your project so you can plan accordingly.
