Land Clearing in Atlanta: local context

Atlanta sits on the hilly Piedmont with red clay soils and generous year-round rainfall; many homes on sloped lots have basements, while others sit on crawl spaces or slabs.

The Atlanta–Sandy Springs–Alpharetta area keeps growing outward, and land clearing here is often lot preparation for new homes, barns and shops, along with fence lines, driveways and overgrown acreage.

Methods range from forestry mulching and brush cutting to dozer clearing and stump grinding. Around Atlanta, ask contractors about tree-protection ordinances in many cities, erosion-control rules on disturbed ground and wetland and drainage rules, who handles permits, and what happens to the debris.

Licensing and permit rules differ by state and city. Check with Georgia licensing authorities and the local building or permitting office for what applies to your project.

Questions to ask before you hire

  • What clearing method will you use, and why?
  • What happens to debris and stumps?
  • Who handles permits, tree ordinances and erosion control?
  • Is the price per acre, per day or fixed?
  • Can I see proof of insurance?
