Land and Lot Clearing in Greenville

Cleared residential lot in front of an older home in Greenville, NC after tree and brush removal

Pitt County is growing, and a lot of the growth is on land that has been in pines and scrub for thirty years. Building lots in Winterville and south Greenville, a shop pad behind the house, a fence line that has grown into a hedgerow, a back two acres you would like to see again. All of it starts with getting the trees and brush out.

Cherry’s Tree Service clears lots and land across Greenville, Winterville, Ayden, Farmville, and Wilson. Matthew Bryan fells the trees, grinds or pulls the stumps, clears the brush, and hauls or chips the debris so the lot is ready for the builder or the tractor. Free estimates, one price for the lot, and the trees worth keeping flagged before anything is cut. Call or text (252) 814-8409 with the address and the acreage.

Brush and Underbrush Clearing

Wax myrtle, privet, briars, and volunteer sweetgums turn an unused corner of a lot into a wall in a few summers. Matthew cuts and clears the underbrush down to the ground, chips it, and leaves the good trees standing with room to breathe. Good for the back of a lot you want to use again, the strip behind a shop, or the woods edge you want pushed back from the house for fire safety and snakes. Priced by the area, and a lot faster than most people expect.

Fence Line and Property Line Clearing

A fence line lets trees and brush grow right through it, and by the time the wire is buried in trunks it is a two day job to replace it. Matthew clears the line before the fence crew arrives: trees cut, stumps ground flush, brush gone, the line stringable end to end. He also clears property lines for surveys and for neighbors who want the line visible again. Bring the survey or the pin locations and he will stay on your side of it.

“Matthew came out quickly and was very professional. I had 3 stumps ground. Matthew did them quickly and left the areas clean and tidy. He also answered my questions on how to handle the areas now that the trees were gone. I would absolutely have Cherry's tree service back.”

Land Clearing Questions

How much does it cost to clear a lot in Greenville?

It depends on how many trees and how big, how thick the brush is, whether the stumps need to come out or just get ground, and what happens to the debris. A quarter acre house lot with a dozen pines and light brush is a different job from two acres of thicket. Matthew walks the property, counts what has to go, and gives you a lot price. The estimate is free.

Do you handle permits and erosion control for clearing?

For a residential lot, clearing usually needs no permit, but grading, anything near a creek or wetland, and larger acreage may. Matthew will tell you when to check with Pitt County or the city before he starts. Silt fence and erosion control are the builder's or owner's responsibility, but he can install it if you need it.

Can you leave some trees?

Yes, and you should. Matthew walks the lot with you and flags the trees worth keeping for shade and value, then clears around them without tearing up their roots.

What happens to all the wood and brush?

Chipped on site and hauled, or piled and burned where burning is allowed, or the logs sold or left for firewood. The plan for the debris is part of the estimate because it is a big part of the cost.
