Land Clearing for Space Coast Lots and Acreage

BW Clearing is a land clearing company based in Melbourne. We work for homeowners, landowners, farms and businesses, on residential and commercial land. Brevard County is the core of our service area, which reaches about 150 miles out.

Much of the raw land here is pine flatwoods, with saw palmetto growing thick under slash pine. Flatwoods sand drains poorly, and the water table rises close to the surface in the summer wet season. Our skid steer runs a disc mulcher that grinds brush and small trees where they stand. It also runs a three-blade brush mower and a tree puller, and we bring in an excavator for dirt work.

The plan comes before the machines. It sets what stays and what goes, and where any pond or driveway will sit. That plan is the first step of site preparation, and it pays off in the long run. Once the lot is ready, we can put up a pole barn on the cleared pad.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About Land Clearing, Mulching or Dirt Work?

The questions homeowners and landowners around Melbourne and the Space Coast ask us most. If yours is not here, call or text and we will answer it.

Call (904) 719-0443

What drives the cost of land clearing?
Every lot is priced on its own, after we see it. Acreage and how thick the growth is move the price most. Stumps, wet ground, tight access and debris haul-off add to it. You get the free quote in writing before any work starts.
Is BW Clearing licensed and insured?
Yes. BW Clearing is licensed and insured. Ask any land clearing contractor that question before heavy machines go to work on your land.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in Melbourne, and Brevard County is the core of our area. We also work the Treasure Coast, south through Sebastian and Vero Beach to Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie. Inland, St. Cloud and the east side of Orange County are in range. See the full list of towns we cover.
What happens to the trees and brush you clear?
That depends on the plan for the land. With forestry mulching, brush and small trees are ground up where they stand, and the mulch stays on the lot. Where the lot has to be bare for a pad or a driveway, we haul the debris off.
Do you grind stumps?
No, we pull them out. Stump grinding is a different service, and we do not offer it. Our land clearing work lifts stumps out with the tree puller or an excavator. The root system comes out, so nothing grows back from the stump.
Do I need a permit to clear my land?
Often, yes. Unincorporated Brevard County requires a land clearing permit unless an exemption applies. Inside Melbourne, the city's engineering department issues the land alteration permit for tree removal. Clearing within 25 feet of a gopher tortoise burrow needs an FWC permit first. We walk you through which permits apply to your lot.
When is the best time of year to clear land here?
The drier months, roughly November through April, usually give the firmest ground. By NOAA's climate normals, June through September bring more than half of Melbourne's yearly rain. On poorly drained lots, standing water and soft ground can slow heavy machines then. We plan the work around the ground on your lot.
Can you get a raw lot ready to build a house?
Yes. Lot clearing comes first, with the stumps pulled out by the roots. Then we level the ground and spread fill where it is needed. We can build the dirt or gravel driveway too. A concrete contractor pours the slab, and a utility contractor does the underground work.
Do you build pole barns?
Yes. We build pole barns on a pad we clear and level first. Shops, garages, equipment storage, barns and barndominium shells are all on the list, with insulated options. Any concrete slab is poured by a concrete contractor.
