Land Clearing &/or Firebreak Contractors

About the Land Clearing &/or Firebreak Contractors heading in Yellow™

Look under this Yellow™ heading for information on land clearing and firebreak contractors. Land clearing and firebreak contractors provide services such as tree clearing, mulching, and ploughing to make way for better use of land and prevent forest fire. They offer their services to land developers, government agencies, and construction companies. These contractors also transport, process, and find use for the trees and soil they excavate from a cleared land. This green waste can be sold to companies who need it for landscaping or composting.

Land clearing and firebreak contractors are hired for such tasks as earthmoving, excavation, demolition, felling, timber shredding, green waste shredding, and rock grinding. These are done to make way for drainages, swimming pools, driveways, and new landscaping. After clearing trees off a piece of land, the green waste is mulched down to landscape the area. This process controls weed growth and improves the quality of the soil. If the client does not intend to use the excavated materials, they can recycle and ground into mulch materials. Then, they can sell it to developers who need these wastes for their own landscaping, land development, power line clearing, road construction or road widening. Examples of these recycled materials are soil, compactable and fill sand, crushed concrete, mulch, sandstone, and road base. Contractors may provide the necessary recycling and transport services, and equipment for this.

Land clearing and firebreak contractors and operators have to be fully certified and follow land clearing regulations at all times. Depending on the project arrangement, they may charge the client per cubic metre of stockpiled waste removed, tonnage of the waste, hourly labour, or a fixed price for the completed job.
