Land Clearing in East Metro, MN
Trees, brush, stumps, and debris — cleared and hauled. Logmark Clearing provides land clearing for residential lots and larger parcels throughout Washington and Dakota Counties in the East Metro Twin Cities.
What Land Clearing Involves
Land clearing is the removal of trees, stumps, brush, undergrowth, and other vegetation from a parcel of land. The goal is a clean site — whether that's for new construction, improved usability, or simply reclaiming land that's overgrown.
Logmark Clearing takes on clearing jobs of all sizes. On the residential side, that typically means a lot that needs to be cleared before a new build, a section of property that's become overgrown and unusable, or a wooded area that needs to be opened up for outdoor use. On the commercial and development side, it often means site clearing ahead of construction, grubbing, and getting the ground ready for rough grading.
Every clearing job is quoted individually. We look at acreage, vegetation density, slope, site access, and what you need done with the debris before we give you a price.

- Brush, shrubs, and woody undergrowth

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a land clearing job take?
Job duration depends on acreage, density of vegetation, and debris volume. A typical residential lot (under an acre, moderate tree cover) takes one to two days. Larger parcels or heavily wooded sites take longer. We give you a realistic time estimate when we quote the job.
Do you remove the stumps and roots too?
Stump grinding is available as part of a land clearing package or as a standalone service. When we quote clearing, we'll clarify exactly what's included — tree removal, brush, debris hauling, and whether stumps are ground to below grade or left above ground.
What happens to the debris after clearing?
We haul everything off-site as part of the job. Trees, brush, roots, and debris are removed and disposed of properly. If you want wood chips or logs left on the property for other uses, let us know when we talk through the scope.
Do I need a permit before land clearing in Minnesota?
Permit requirements vary by municipality and the specifics of the project. In Washington County, clearing over certain acreage or near wetlands or waterways may require permits. We can help you understand what's typically required, but it's the property owner's responsibility to pull any necessary permits before work begins.
