What a clearing job includes

Lot clearing covers anything from cutting back an overgrown fence row to opening a wooded parcel for a house. Typical pieces of a job:

  • Cutting brush, vines and undergrowth
  • Removing saplings and small trees
  • Taking down selected large trees
  • Chipping brush and hauling or stacking logs
  • Grinding stumps where the ground will be mowed or built on

Selective vs full clearing

Selective clearing keeps the trees you want and takes out the rest. Full clearing removes everything in a marked area. Flag the trees you want saved before anyone starts.

How a tree service request works

  1. Send the form

    Your address, the trees involved and the service you need.

  2. It goes to a local tree contractor

    Your request is passed to a contractor who works in your area.

  3. The contractor looks and quotes

    They contact you, look at the job and give you a price.

  4. You agree on the details

    Work, timing and cleanup are agreed directly with the contractor.

Sending a request costs nothing and commits you to nothing. Medina Tree Removal is a referral service, not a tree company; the contractor who contacts you quotes and does the work.

Where does lot clearing come up in Medina County?

Much of the county is still rural. York Township requires 2.1 acres or more for most homes, and its plan notes large wooded lots inside the blocks between main roads. Granger Township has no city or village at all, and its parks sit on old farms.

Old pasture can fill in on its own. At Buckeye Woods Park in Lafayette Township, the Park District says a thicket of thorny hawthorn took over where grazing animals once ate everything else.

What happens to the cleared trees and brush?

Most clearing jobs chip the brush on site and either spread the chips or haul them. Logs can be cut to length and left for firewood, stacked, or taken away. The Medina County Solid Waste District facility in Seville takes branches and trunks only when cut to 4 feet or shorter and no more than 24 inches round, and it does not take stumps or root balls, so bigger jobs almost always include hauling.

Five things to check before clearing land

Land and Lot Clearing questions

Can you keep some trees when clearing a lot?
Selective clearing is common. Walk the lot first and tie flagging tape on every tree you want kept, then confirm the plan with the contractor in writing. Ask that equipment stay off the root zones of saved trees; the ISA lists construction damage, soil compaction and root loss among the causes of tree defects.
Do you need a permit to clear land in Medina County?
That depends on the city or township and on what is on the land. Floodplains, wetlands, work in a road right of way and building plans can all bring their own approvals, so call the local zoning office before a large clearing job.
Can cleared brush be burned instead of hauled?
Ask your local fire department whether burning is allowed at your property before counting on it. Chipping the brush and hauling the logs avoids the question entirely and leaves usable mulch.
Is lot clearing priced by the acre?
Some contractors quote by the acre and others by the job. Density of brush, tree sizes, slope, wet ground and whether stumps are ground all change the work, so expect a site visit before a firm number.
