Frequently Asked Questions


Do I need a permit to clear my land?

Yes. In Queensland, clearing native vegetation is controlled by both the Australian and Queensland governments. Before starting on a land clearing project, you need to first obtain a property report and vegetation maps, to help you identify the requirements and to guide you in choosing the right clearing option.

How much land can be cleared in a day?

The answer to this question is subjective. But on average, one day or 8 working hours should be enough to clear 2-3 acres of land.

What equipment do I need to remove stumps?

An excavator is ideal for stump removal, a 315 Cat or 160 size excavators should work well for average sized stumps. For larger hard wood stumps, you may need more powerful machinery.
