Selective Clearing Services
Not every clearing project requires complete removal of all vegetation. We specialize in selective clearing that preserves valuable trees and natural features while removing unwanted growth. This approach maintains your property's natural beauty while creating usable space.
Our arborists can identify which trees to preserve based on species, health, and aesthetic value. Mature trees can add significant value to your property - up to $10,000 per tree according to recent studies. We help you maximize this value through careful planning.

Environmental Compliance
Land clearing projects must comply with local environmental regulations and permit requirements. We understand Federal Way's tree preservation ordinances and can help navigate the permitting process for your project.
Our team coordinates with city planners and environmental specialists to ensure your clearing project meets all regulatory requirements while achieving your development goals.
Specialized Equipment and Techniques
We utilize a range of specialized equipment designed for efficient land clearing while minimizing soil compaction and environmental impact. Our equipment includes forestry mulchers, brush hogs, and track-mounted machines that can work in challenging terrain.
Modern clearing techniques allow us to process vegetation into useful mulch rather than simply burning or hauling debris. This environmentally friendly approach reduces waste and can provide valuable organic material for your landscaping projects.
Erosion Control and Site Stabilization
Proper erosion control is critical during and after land clearing operations. We implement erosion control measures including temporary seeding, silt fencing, and strategic brush placement to protect cleared areas from soil loss and runoff.
Studies show that cleared land can lose up to 200 tons of topsoil per acre annually without proper erosion control. Our proactive approach protects your investment and prevents environmental violations that could delay your project.
Debris Management and Disposal
Land clearing generates significant amounts of organic debris that must be properly managed. We offer several disposal options including on-site chipping, off-site hauling, controlled burning (where permitted), and debris processing for beneficial reuse.
Many clients choose to have cleared material processed into mulch for use in landscaping or erosion control. This cost-effective approach reduces disposal fees while providing valuable organic material for your property improvement projects.
