Land Clearing Services
Lot Clearing in Binghamton, NY
Whether you’re building a home, creating a food plot, or reclaiming overgrown land, we clear lots of any size across Broome County. Trees, brush, stumps — we handle it all.
Professional Lot & Land Clearing
Building a new home, installing a septic system, or developing a property starts with clearing the land. We remove trees, grind stumps, and clear brush to prepare your lot for construction, agriculture, or whatever you have planned.
The Southern Tier has no shortage of wooded lots waiting for development. We work with homeowners, builders, and developers across Broome County to clear sites efficiently. From a quarter-acre residential lot to multi-acre parcels, we have the equipment and experience to handle the job.
Our approach minimizes disruption to the surrounding landscape. We selectively remove only what needs to go, protect trees you want to keep with clearly marked perimeters, and leave the site graded and ready for your next contractor. All wood waste is chipped, hauled, or converted to firewood.
When You Need Lot Clearing
New Construction
Building a home or garage requires a clear, level site. We remove trees and stumps to your builder’s specifications.
Sunlight Access
Opening up a lot to sunlight allows for gardens, solar panels, septic fields, or simply a usable yard.
Overgrown Property
Neglected lots with invasive species, dead trees, and thick brush are a fire risk and reduce property value.
Access Roads
Creating or improving access roads, driveways, and utility corridors through wooded areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does lot clearing cost?
Pricing depends on lot size, tree density, and terrain. Residential lots in Broome County typically range from $2,000-$8,000. We provide free on-site estimates.
Do I need a permit to clear my lot?
In most of Broome County, you don’t need a permit to clear trees on your own residential property. However, wetland areas and properties in certain zoning districts may have restrictions. Check with your local code office.
What happens to the wood?
Merchantable timber can be sold or kept as firewood. Brush is chipped on-site and can be spread as ground cover or hauled away. Stumps are ground below grade.
Can you do selective clearing?
Yes. We often selectively remove specific trees while preserving desirable ones. We’ll mark keepers with you before any cutting begins.
