When you have a piece of property that you are ready to develop, there are several steps involved in the process. One of the first things that will need to be done is clearing the land. There are several ways that you can go about clearing land. The most effective way to get your land cleared is to hire professionals to do it. Rock Solid Grading & Excavating is here to talk about some of the different methods that can be used to effectively clear land for development.
Ways to Approach Land Clearing
There is more than one way to approach land clearing before developing it. Here are some methods that are used to get land ready for building:
– Bulldozing: One of the most effective ways to remove trees and other vegetation from land to be developed is with a bulldozer. Not only can trees be easily knocked down that way, but the dirt can be moved and as needed too. When you work to manually remove one tree at a time, it can take a lot longer to get the job done. The only problem that is posed by clearing land with a bulldozer is that there is a lot of debris that is often left behind that needs to be dealt with. As long as you are working with a excavation company, this shouldn’t be an issue as they will remove the debris once it has been dug up from the land.
– Hand Clearing: If you are clearing a small piece of land, you might be able to clear some things by hand. There is still equipment used to do this including shovels, rakes and axes. This takes more time and is labor intensive. This is often a great way to get rid of vegetation when you aren’t wanting to harm the environment. Without using heavy machinery, the process is more precise.
– Forestry Mulching: Sometimes, a forestry mulcher is used to clear land by mulching the vegetation, rocks , stumps and any other debris found on the property. As the land is cleared, the soil is kept intact which is beneficial for erosion later down the road. The mulching can also be beneficial to the soil as it puts nutrients back into the soil. This is great for properties that are being used for agriculture.
