Land clearing cost per acre, and the setting for each

Clearing is priced per acre in the guides and per acre in the tool, so each row maps straight onto a setting. The right column names it.

A wooded lot in the instant land clearing quote tool

An acre and a half of lightly wooded lot with four big trees to drop. Drag the size and the clearing scales; the trees stay a counted charge.

Clearing a 1.5-acre lightly wooded lot for a house, with four large trees removed.

1.5 acres
  • Lightly wooded (1.5 acres) 1.5 acre × $2,200.00 $3,300.00
  • Large tree removal 4 × $600.00 $2,400.00
Total $5,700.00

$2,200 an acre for lightly wooded ground and $600 a tree both sit within the price table. Set your own rates before you share the link.

Price parcels inside your hauling distance only

Clearing equipment is expensive to move. Draw the counties you work as a radius or a shape; parcels past the line get no price and still reach you, marked outside.

Land clearing leads with the acreage on them

Each request lists the parcel's area, the density the owner chose, the trees and the total, and an email goes to your office. Send the written quote once you have walked it.

FAQ

Questions land clearing companies ask

The guide in the price table puts clearing at $1,200 to $8,000 an acre depending on density, brush removal at $800 to $3,000 and large trees at $400 to $1,200 each.

Yes. Set the tool to price per acre and give each density its own rate, such as $2,200 an acre for lightly wooded ground. The parcel the owner outlines is converted to acres and billed at that rate.

Offer each density as its own option, for example brush only, lightly wooded and heavily wooded. The owner picks one for each part of the parcel they outline.

Free on every plan, including the requests. Written quotes and jobs for the clearing work are on the paid plans.

Mulching brush in place is on its own page: the forestry mulching quote tool.

The owner outlines the parcel on satellite imagery, where tree cover is easy to see. The area is recomputed from that outline when they submit.
