01 What’s included

What we clear out

Removal is only half the job. The other half is getting it off your property, and that’s included.

Hedges

Hedge lines reclaimed

Worked from the inside out: the trees and vines that grew up through the hedge come out, and what’s left is the hedge.

Volunteers

Volunteer trees & sumac

Cut out, and pulled by the root where we can get to it.

Shrubs

Dead & overgrown shrubs

Pulled out instead of cut off at the ground and left.

Trees

Small trees dropped

Small trees taken down and cut up for the trailer.

Stumps

Stumps pulled

Shrub and small-tree stumps come out where we can get to them.

Haul-off

Same-day haul-off

Brush, stumps, and debris leave on the trailer the same day. No pile left in the side yard.

02 Process

How a removal job goes

01

Send photos

Photos are usually enough for a ballpark on removal work. Show us the whole area, not just the worst corner.

02

Walkthrough: what stays, what goes

We walk it with you, agree on exactly what comes out, and put the scope and price in writing.

03

Cut, pull, and load

Removal happens on the agreed day. Anything we dig at is dug after a MISS DIG 811 locate, and everything goes straight onto the trailer.

04

Cleanup and walkthrough

We blow down the drive and walks, walk the finished area with you, and you approve it before you pay.

03 Pricing

What this usually costs

Every property is different, but most people want a ballpark before they call. Here’s where these jobs typically land.

Brush pile & junk haul-offTrailer load of brush, timbers, fencing, or yard debris
from $250 / load

These are typical ranges, not a quote. The only number that counts is the written one you get after the walkthrough — and that one doesn’t change unless you change the scope.

Overgrown shrubs were hiding the maple and the front of the house. We pulled them, kept what was worth keeping, re-set the stone border, and mulched to the walk.

05 Questions

Removal questions

How much does brush and shrub removal cost?

Overgrowth and shrub removal starts at $450. It’s priced by what’s coming out and how much there is to haul, and you get the number in writing before anything gets cut.

Do you pull the stumps too?

Shrub and small-tree stumps get pulled where we can get to them. If a stump can’t come out that way, you’ll hear about it at the walkthrough, not on the day.

Do you take down trees?

Small trees, yes. If a tree is bigger than what we take on, we’ll tell you at the walkthrough.

Do you haul away everything you cut and pull?

Yes, and it goes the same day. Brush, shrub stumps, old timbers, fencing, and the spoil from any digging all leave on the trailer. You should not be looking at a pile in your side yard a week after the job. We also take on haul-off by itself if you already cleared it and just need it gone.
