Land clearing questions
Do you do the clearing yourselves?
No. Jackson Land Clearing is an independent referral service. We pass your request to a local, independent land clearing contractor who works in Jackson, and they quote and perform the job directly with you.
What is forestry mulching?
Forestry mulching uses a single machine with a mulching head to cut and grind trees and brush into mulch that is left on the ground. It avoids burning and hauling, disturbs less soil and helps control erosion.
Forestry mulching or conventional clearing?
Mulching is ideal for underbrush, overgrown lots, trails and selective clearing. If you are building a house or driveway and need stumps pulled and bare soil, conventional clearing with grubbing is usually required.
How much does land clearing cost?
It is usually priced per acre or by machine time. Dense, large trees, steep or wet ground, stump removal and debris hauling raise the price. See the cost guide for the main drivers.
Do I need a permit?
It depends on your location and project. Burning debris may require a burn permit, and clearing near streams or in wetlands can require approval. Check with your county or the contractor before work starts.
Can you clear just the underbrush and keep the big trees?
Yes. Selective clearing removes brush, vines and small trees while keeping the trees you want.
