Land Clearing & Brush Removal in Champaign County, Ohio
Overgrown ground is wasted ground. We clear trees, brush, stumps, and fence rows to open land back up for a building site, pasture, tillable acreage, or just a yard that is not disappearing into honeysuckle.
We handle the removal and the cleanup, including grubbing out root balls, which is the step that separates land you can actually build on from land that just looks clear.

How it goes
The sequence, step by step.
You should know what happens next at every stage. Here is how we run this job.
- 01
Walk the boundary
We confirm exactly what is coming out and what is staying, and identify property lines, utilities, and any trees you want protected.
- 02
Clear
Trees and brush removed with excavator and skid steer. Merchantable timber can be set aside if you want it.
- 03
Grub the roots
Root balls pulled rather than cut at grade. Skipping this leaves stumps to rot into voids that swallow a mower or crack a slab.
- 04
Clean up and finish
Debris hauled, burned, or chipped per your preference and local rules, then the ground graded and seeded if you want it stabilized.

Common questions
Land Clearing FAQ
Real answers, including the numbers people actually want.
Light brush and small trees cost meaningfully less per acre than heavily wooded ground with large trees and full stump grubbing. Debris disposal method is a major cost driver, and burning on site is cheaper than hauling off. Call for a free estimate once we have seen the ground.
We grub out root balls, not just cut at grade. If you plan to build, farm, or mow the ground, leaving stumps in place creates voids as they decay and causes settlement later.
Depending on your preference and local burn regulations, we burn on site, chip it, or haul it off. Usable timber or firewood can be stacked and left for you.
Usually not for routine clearing on your own property, but clearing near a regulated stream or wetland, or in a floodplain, can trigger permitting. Open burning is also regulated by Ohio EPA and local rules. We will flag anything we see during the site visit.
