Lot Clearing in Hillyard, WA
Lot Clearing for Hillyard homeowners, handled by the crew other companies call when a job gets technical. Two days to a week depending on acreage.
Before we quote clearing a lot anywhere in Hillyard, we look at the conditions that make this pocket of Spokane County distinct. Hillyard is one of Spokane's most established working neighborhoods, with homes from the early 1900s and mature trees that have grown alongside them. Tight lots and aging trees combine to create urban-removal challenges that require expert climbing skill.
Our method here is a staged clear — mark keepers first, remove standing timber, mulch the brush and ladder fuels, then grade-level the stumps. The risk we plan around is property line accuracy, buried utilities, and leaving fuel loads that later become a wildfire path.
We work Hillyard regularly. Our crew has the climbing and rigging gear needed to safely drop trees in tight spaces between homes, garages, and alleys without damaging surrounding properties. That familiarity is why lot clearing quotes from us do not change once we arrive.

Who is on the crew for a Hillyard lot clearing job?
A three- to four-person clearing crew, running skid steer with a forestry head, chipper, and a dump trailer for haul-out. Full cleanup and haul-away are included unless you ask us to leave the wood.
Can you remove a tree between two houses?
Yes. Tight side-yard removals are routine — we climb the tree and lower it in small pieces rather than felling anything, so nothing contacts either roof.
