Land Clearing is the process of removing trees, stumps, and other vegetation from an area of land. The purpose of land clearing is typically to prepare the land for other uses such as farming, ranching, or construction.
Land clearing can be done manually with hand tools such as axes and shovels, or it can be done with heavy machinery such as bulldozers and excavators. Depending on the size and scope of the project, land clearing can take anywhere from a few hours to several weeks to complete.
When done correctly, land clearing can provide a host of benefits – and harvesting timber as part of the process can even help pay for the project along the way. It can improve the appearance of an area, make it easier to build on or farm, and help prevent soil erosion. However, if not done properly, land clearing can also cause environmental damage.
At Maple Ridge Forest Products, we provide ethical, regenerative land clearing and land management services to help you prepare land for new uses while enhancing and protecting the land. Our approach employs industry-leading environmental best practices, removing or harvesting only enough wood and foliage to accomplish your goals while preserving the conservation and habitat capabilities of your wilderness area.
We don’t just decimate the land – we approach it with conservation and improvement top-of-mind.
Working with Maple Ridge Forest Products goes far deeper than just clearing your land.
Our trained foresters help you enhance the land you have at the same time that you’re harvesting and removing mature trees.
In fact, when we do sustainable land clearing on your property, harvesting mature trees can often pay for part of – or even cover the entire cost of – your land clearing project.
It begins with a land assessment by one of our trained, environmentally conscious foresters, who will assess your space and the value of your timber. You’ll receive a price for the project, plus learn the value of your logged trees – before it’s even harvested.
We provide transparent, clear pricing on all of our projects, so you know exactly what you’re getting into. And, our trained technicians will walk you through the project from start to finish, so you know what your land will look like (and how it might be used) before you ever hear a chainsaw buzz.
Maple Ridge Forest Products was formed with a passion for environmental sustainability. Most companies offering land clearing and logging services simply bulldoze everything – not us. We take a mindful approach to preserving the beauty of your land while creating landscapes that will provide rich, natural habitat for decades to come.
