Townsville & surrounds

Land clearing

House sites, fence lines and rural land cleared of scrub, regrowth and debris.

Clearing for what comes next

Whether it’s a house block, a shed site, a fence line or a paddock, we clear land across Townsville and surrounds, and travel to the Burdekin and Ingham.

What we can do

  • Clearing scrub, regrowth and small trees
  • Stump removal
  • Clearing house and shed sites ahead of site preparation
  • Clearing fence lines and access tracks
  • Ripping hard ground with the excavator’s ripper
  • Removing cleared debris and green waste

Machines for the job

Clearing jobs usually call for our tracked skid steer with a 4-in-1 bucket, and a 5-tonne excavator with buckets and a ripper when there’s more to move. We’ll bring in whatever the site needs.

Check approvals first

Vegetation clearing rules in Queensland depend on where your land is and what’s growing on it. Before clearing, check with Townsville City Council (or your local council) and the Queensland Government’s vegetation management information.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need approval to clear my land?
Sometimes. Clearing vegetation in Queensland can need approval from your local council or the Queensland Government, especially on rural land or near waterways. Check before work starts — we're happy to talk it through.
Are you insured?
Yes. We're insured and can show proof before we start.
