Land Clearing in Buffalo: local context

Buffalo gets heavy lake-effect snow, long freeze-thaw winters and has an older housing stock in which basements are standard.

Land clearing around Buffalo is mostly lot preparation, fence-line and driveway clearing, and reclaiming overgrown acreage on the edges of the metro.

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

Licensing and permit rules differ by state and city. Check with New York 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?
