Lot Clearing
Minnesota Tree Surgeons provides dependable lot clearing services for residential, commercial, and municipal properties throughout the Minneapolis area. We have the equipment and expertise to ensure the lot is cleared to your specifications, leaving any desirable trees intact and avoiding damage to surrounding property.
What Is Lot Clearing?
Lot clearing involves removing trees, debris, shrubs, boulders, and other vegetation from a yard or field to prepare it for landscaping, construction, or agriculture. Clearing land with overgrown vegetation also prevents pest or wildlife infestation, reduces wildfire risks, and improves air quality. Our team of skilled arborists has access to specialized equipment to remove overgrown vegetation safely. Contact us for an estimate.
Why Is It Important?
Overgrown trees block views, and abandoned gardens with uneven terrain or hidden obstacles create tripping hazards. Branches of overgrown trees can also touch power lines, introducing electrocution risks and electrical sparks. Removing excessive plant growth by clearing the land of tree stumps, overgrown trees, shrubs, and other vegetation can increase safety. Lot clearing also enhances the look of a property, boosting curb appeal.
Types of Lot Clearing Services
Tree companies offer a range of lot-clearing services, including:
-
Tree removal: We can remove overgrown, diseased, damaged, or hazardous trees to clear your land.
-
Stump grinding: Tree stumps can create hazards on your lawn; our team can remove them using a stump grinder.
-
Tree trimming: Arborists can remove or cut tree branches to reduce property damage and improve visibility.
-
Emergency tree removal: Trees can topple over during powerful storms and other natural disasters. We can remove them to enhance the safety of your property.
Tools and Equipment Used
The tools and equipment used for lot-clearing services depend on the land size and the type of trees to be removed. We may use heavy equipment, such as bulldozers, to clear a large area and excavators to dig or lift heavy stumps. Tractors haul heavy equipment, while chainsaws cut trees. Stump grinders remove tree stumps, and tree shears remove small branches or trees. Other equipment we use includes chippers, grinders, and dump trucks.
Benefits of Professional Lot Clearing
Tree companies have the right tools and equipment to safely and properly remove trees and other vegetation. Lot clearing isn't a DIY project — although it may be possible for a small lot — and we recommend hiring professionals to ensure the task is properly carried out. Stump grinding and tree removal also require professional services, as it would be challenging to do this on your own. For safety, always hire a professional for lot clearing services for a construction or landscape project.
