Your private road or long driveway is getting tighter every year. Branches scrape trucks, brush hides the edges, and snowplows have trouble getting through. Down trees block the way after storms. Toms Tree Services offers right-of-way clearing in Marquette to keep it open.
When Do You Need Right-of-Way Clearing?
Right-of-way clearing helps along private roads, long driveways, shared access lanes, trails, fence lines and easements across your land.
Signs include branches hanging over the road, brush growing onto the edges, trees leaning toward the lane, and less room for plows, delivery trucks and emergency vehicles.
Work can include cutting brush, trimming or removing trees along the edges, raising low limbs, and chipping or mulching the material.
For trees near power lines, call the utility company first. Only trained utility crews should work near lines.
If the right-of-way is shared, check with the other owners or easement holder before work starts.
In the U.P., heavy lake-effect snow bends limbs into the road, and Lake Superior wind storms drop trees across lanes. Clearing wider edges helps plows and keeps the road open. Wet spring ground can limit machines, so fall and early winter work is common.
We help homeowners and property owners in Marquette, Negaunee, Ishpeming, Gwinn and across Marquette County, and will travel farther for the right job.
How the Job Works, Step by Step
It starts with you. Call 906-236-9567 or send the form with your name, phone number and address. Lucas will call you back to set a time to look at your road.
Then we come out and look. We drive or walk the right-of-way with you and talk about how wide and high it should be cleared. We point out leaning or weak trees and plan the cutting and cleanup.
After that, you get a free estimate. There is no trip fee for the visit and no pressure. You can start with part of the plan or all of it. If you go ahead, we set up the work with you and clean up when we finish.
How Much Does Right-of-Way Clearing Cost?
The cost depends on the length and width to clear, how thick the brush is, the number and size of trees, slopes and access. Distance, equipment and what happens to the material also matter.
The estimate is free, and there is no trip fee. When we give you the estimate, we go over what each part of the work covers. That way you can pick what fits your trees and your budget, and change the plan later if your needs change.
