One crew, one machine, straight answers

Owner-operated, one crew

Liberty County Land Clearing is owner-operated out of Cleveland. The owner runs the machine on most jobs himself rather than sending a crew out solo. If you call, there's a decent chance you're talking to the person who'll actually be clearing your lot.

Why run it this way instead of on someone else's crew? The short version: watching Colony Ridge and the acreage around it fill up with new owners who had no idea what a raw lot actually cost to clear, or how fast a bad quote could turn into a change order, was reason enough. Straight per-acre pricing before the machine shows up isn't complicated. Most of this trade just doesn't bother doing it.

What we run

One tracked skid steer carrying a forestry mulching head handles the bulk of the work, brush, saplings, and standing timber up to the head's rated diameter get ground into mulch in a single pass. A compact excavator handles stump and root work on lot-clearing jobs where a pad needs to come down below grade. That's the fleet. We don't own a bulldozer and we don't do dozer-and-burn clearing.

How a job actually gets booked

1. You call, text, or fill out the quote form. Photos, a pin drop, or a plat get you a first number the same day in most cases.
2. We confirm density and access. A quick back-and-forth by phone or text usually settles this without a site visit for straightforward lots.
3. You get a written price. Per acre or per lot, before anything is scheduled.
4. We schedule a date. Usually within a week, sometimes sooner depending on the calendar.
5. The job runs. The owner or the crew works the property to the agreed scope and walks it with you or sends video when it's done.
6. You pay on completion. Check or card, invoice handed over the same day.

One limit worth knowing: we're a two-person operation on most jobs, not a fleet of crews running five sites at once. That keeps quality consistent but it also means our schedule fills up during peak clearing season, spring and early fall, faster than a bigger outfit's would.
