Lots, Land and Wood

From trees and brush to a buildable lot.

Clearing a lot is more than cutting trees. It is deciding which trees stay, protecting them while the work goes on and leaving a site that is ready for the builder.

  • Priced by: Acreage, tree size and density, stumps and haul-off
  • Methods: Climbing, felling, forestry mulching and excavators

The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

Builders and homeowners need a lot that is open, level and free of stumps where the house, pool or driveway will go, and they usually want to keep the best trees. That takes a plan: tagging the trees to save, setting protection lines and removing the rest in an order that keeps the work moving.

Nashville Tree Service clears lots across Middle Tennessee, taking down trees, grinding or pulling stumps, chipping brush and hauling debris. We can leave the best trees standing, protect their roots and coordinate with your builder, excavator or surveyor.
