Land Clearing in North Myrtle Beach, SC

Serving North Myrtle Beach · Horry County

One Family Crew for North Myrtle Beach Land and Dirt

Land clearing in North Myrtle Beach usually starts with a lot that got away from its owner. Growth comes back fast on the coast, and a couple of seasons is all it takes. We run Category 5 Land Management out of Longs, about seven miles from North Myrtle Beach on SC 9. North Myrtle Beach sits in Horry County, and the Intracoastal Waterway splits the city down the middle. The beach side fills in block by block. The west side spreads along Robert Edge Parkway and Water Tower Road. Both sides still have parcels that sit behind a wall of vines and young pine. Call (843) 385-1090 for a free estimate.

In North Myrtle Beach, most of the work that fits is lot clearing and brush clearing. Lot clearing suits an infill lot on the beach side, or a parcel held for a future build. Brush clearing suits ground that is mostly overgrown, where the trees can stay. Both run off a Bobcat T300 track loader with a forestry mulcher head. The mulcher grinds brush and small trees where they stand, and the chips stay on the ground. Forestry mulching is the name for that work when it covers a whole parcel. That means no burn piles and nothing hauled off your lot. If a property line has closed in, we also do fence line clearing.

Lots west of the Intracoastal Waterway

The city keeps growing on the west side of the waterway. Robert Edge Parkway crosses the waterway from Main Street and ends at SC 90. It has an interchange with SC 31, the Carolina Bays Parkway. Water Tower Road runs about seven miles from SC 90 to the former Waterway Hills Golf Club. Not long ago most of that road was dirt. The building boom out there is about a decade old. When one lot sits between finished homes, lot clearing is the job.

Barefoot Resort came into the city after the bridge went in, and building has not stopped. The city council has approved hundreds of new cottages and homes on that side in recent years. Lots get bought early and sit until a builder is ready. Two wet summers and a lot is back to briars and saplings. Forestry mulching clears that growth without burning it or trucking it out. The chips stay put and break down over the next few seasons.

Overgrown lots in the older beach sections

North Myrtle Beach became one city in 1968, when four beach towns joined. Cherry Grove, Ocean Drive, Crescent Beach, and Windy Hill still feel like separate places. The lots there are older and tighter, and most sit between houses that are already lived in. There is no room for a burn pile or a stack of trunks. Our machine works down a narrow lot and leaves the growth on the ground as chips.

Burning brush is a real risk in this county. The 2009 Highway 31 fire started as a debris burn near Conway and reached Barefoot in a day. It burned more than 19,000 acres and damaged or destroyed 76 homes. It is still the most destructive wildfire in state history. We do not burn anything on a job. Brush clearing on a beach lot ends with a mulched surface you can mow. Call (843) 385-1090 for a free estimate on your lot.

North Myrtle Beach FAQ

Questions From North Myrtle Beach Property Owners

A few of the questions we hear most around North Myrtle Beach. Don't see yours? Call us — we're happy to help.

Call (843) 385-1090

How much does land clearing cost in North Myrtle Beach?
Price follows the lot. We look at the size of the lot and how thick the growth has gotten. Stem size matters too, since bigger trunks take longer to grind. Wet ground and tight access slow the machine down. We give free estimates in North Myrtle Beach, so call (843) 385-1090.
Do you clear small lots between houses in North Myrtle Beach?
Yes. A compact track loader fits where bigger machines cannot, and the T300 is a compact machine. We mulch the growth where it stands, so nothing gets stacked in the road or next door. Call (843) 385-1090 and we can set a time to look at the lot.
Can you clear lots west of the Intracoastal Waterway?
Yes. That side of North Myrtle Beach still has open parcels. Robert Edge Parkway and Water Tower Road run through it. Low spots hold water after rain, and a track loader spreads its weight better than wheels do. If the ground is too soft, we wait for it to dry.
