Question 1

How much does forestry mulching cost per acre in Southern Ontario?

Accepted Answer

Most residential and rural projects in Southern Ontario fall between $1,200 and $3,500 per acre depending on vegetation density, terrain, and access. Light brush on flat ground clears faster and costs less per acre than dense multi-stem thickets on sloped ground. We provide free, no-obligation quotes after a photo or site visit.

Question 2

What size trees can your forestry mulcher handle?

Accepted Answer

Our tracked forestry mulcher handles brush and trees up to approximately 8 inches in diameter in a single pass. Larger stems can often be processed with a second pass. If your project involves mature trees beyond that, we'll advise on the right approach at the free assessment.

Question 3

Do you clear invasive buckthorn and honeysuckle?

Accepted Answer

Yes — invasive species removal is one of our core services. We mechanically clear common buckthorn, invasive honeysuckle, and other listed invasive species. Because seeds can remain viable in the soil for several years, we discuss a realistic follow-up plan with every client to manage regrowth.

Question 4

Do you offer snow removal in the winter?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer seasonal snow removal contracts and per-visit service for residential and commercial properties across Southern Ontario. Book by mid-November to secure priority routing for your area.

Question 5

How soon can you start?

Accepted Answer

Most residential land clearing projects are scheduled within 1–3 weeks of a signed quote. Commercial and larger acreage projects may have a longer lead time depending on the season. Winter snow contracts are booked before mid-November for the coming season.

Question 6

Are you insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Clear Acres Group carries commercial liability insurance and follows safe work practices on every property. Certificates of insurance are available on request for commercial clients and property managers.

Question 7

Do you haul away the debris?

Accepted Answer

Forestry mulching processes brush and small trees in place — the material stays on-site as a natural mulch layer, so there's no burn pile, no chipping, and nothing hauled to the dump. This is one of the main reasons mulching is more cost-effective than traditional clearing.

Question 8

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

We serve Southern Ontario — Niagara Region, Hamilton, Burlington, Milton, Brantford & Brant County, Guelph & Wellington County, Cambridge/Waterloo, Haldimand-Norfolk, and surrounding communities. If you're outside this area, contact us — we may still be able to help.
