Beyond a Single Tree
Whole lots, fence lines and storm-hit tree lines across Daviess County, not one trunk at a time.
What Makes This Different
Clearing land isn't simply tree removal on a larger scale; the work covers a marked-out area instead of centering on one trunk. Daviess County is still a rural county at its edges: a building site that needs the brush cleared before a foundation goes in, a fence line grown over with saplings, a pasture that's losing ground to scrub, or a property that took storm damage across a whole tree line instead of just one tree. Daviess County Tree Co. runs the heavier equipment — skid steer and forestry mulching attachments, not just chainsaws — that this kind of job actually calls for.
Where We Work
Land clearing is available anywhere we do tree removal. See all the areas we serve →
Clearing brush and small trees ahead of a new structure, driveway, or fence line — graded to whatever footprint the project needs.
Reclaiming a pasture edge, a fence line, or a lot that's been left alone for a few seasons and is now thick with saplings and scrub.
When a storm takes down more than one tree across a property — not uncommon in Daviess County — we clear the whole affected area in one pass instead of one tree at a time.
Cost Planning
| Job size | Typical cost range |
|---|---|
| Small area (under ¼ acre, light brush) | $400 – $1,500 |
| Medium area (¼–1 acre, mixed brush/small trees) | $1,500 – $4,500 |
| Larger area (1+ acres, dense growth) | $4,500 – $10,000+ |
Land clearing prices swing more than a single tree removal — density, terrain, tree size mixed into the brush, and whether debris is hauled or mulched on-site all move the number. These ranges are general planning figures, not a quote; every job gets an on-site walk-through and a written estimate before work starts.
Forestry mulching and skid-steer clearing move faster and leave a cleaner finished grade than hand-clearing a defined area tree by tree.
Daviess County's mix of farmland, wooded lots, and heavy clay soil isn't the same everywhere — we walk every job in person before quoting it.
Hauled away, mulched in place, or stacked as firewood: you choose what happens to the material, and we follow that.
Skid steers and mulchers raise the stakes. Ask whoever clears your land for a certificate of liability insurance that covers heavy equipment.
It depends on the size of the job and what the land is zoned for — agricultural clearing is generally more permissive than clearing tied to new construction. We'll flag anything that looks like it needs a city or county check during the estimate rather than assume either way.
Both are options. Mulching in place generally costs less and leaves a layer of ground cover behind, while hauling everything off costs more and leaves bare, clean ground. We'll price both during the estimate so you can decide.
Tree removal is priced per tree. Land clearing is priced by area and density — how much ground is covered and how thick the growth is — because the equipment and time involved scale with the footprint, not the tree count.
