Oklahoma City covers 620 square miles across four counties, and a good share of that is still timber, brush, and old pasture sitting inside the city limits. We clear tight lots in the older neighborhoods and full acreage on the edge of town, from the Deer Creek corridor in the northwest to the ground around Lake Stanley Draper in the southeast.

Our Land Clearing Process For Oklahoma City Properties
1. Property Assessment
We walk the lot or the acreage with you, sort out what goes and what stays, and mark every tree, line, and feature you want protected. Free estimate on your Oklahoma City property with no surprises.
2. Strategic Clearing
Our operators work in a set pattern around utilities, easements, and the trees you want kept, which matters most when the lot is tight and the neighbors are close.
3. Debris Management
You pick how it goes, ground down on site or hauled off, since open burning is restricted inside Oklahoma City limits.
4. Final Cleanup
Lot left level and clean, ready for a pad, a build, or whatever the next phase turns out to be.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Oklahoma City property owners ask us most about lot clearing and tree removal.
What is the difference between land clearing and lot clearing in Oklahoma City?
Land clearing usually means acreage, several acres of timber and brush at a time. Lot clearing is that same work on a single building lot, which is most of what comes up inside the street grid. We handle both with the same equipment and the same process.
Can you clear an Oklahoma City lot that already has a house or garage on it?
Yes. We clear overgrown lots around existing homes, garages, and outbuildings all over Oklahoma City. Our operators work close to structures, fences, and overhead lines, taking out only what you want gone.
Do I need a permit to clear land in Oklahoma City?
For a handful of trees on a residential lot, usually not. Once the work disturbs an acre or more, and clearing and grading both count toward that, the state requires stormwater permit coverage with a written erosion control plan, and the City of Oklahoma City issues its own land disturbing permit through Public Works. Call 811 for utility locates either way, and we will tell you at the estimate which side of that line your job falls on.
Do you pull the stumps too, or just cut the trees down?
We do both. Stump grubbing takes out the stump and the root system, which keeps the ground from settling and leaves the lot level for building. If a house, shop, or slab is going on that spot, full removal is the way to go.
Will clearing my Oklahoma City lot cause erosion or drainage problems?
Done right, clearing improves the way a property drains. We handle the debris and shape the disturbed ground so water moves off instead of standing or cutting channels, which matters in this red clay. On jobs of an acre or more, that shaping works alongside the erosion controls your stormwater plan calls for. If the build is a ways off, we can talk through seeding and temporary cover.
