Land Clearing in Salem, OR
Blackberry removal, brush clearing, overgrown lot restoration, and site prep. Tracked equipment for any terrain — from residential lots to rural acreage.
Salem's Land Clearing Specialists
Overgrown properties don't clear themselves — and in the Willamette Valley, blackberries, scotch broom, and invasive brush can reclaim a lot in a single season. Whether you're preparing land for construction, restoring a neglected property, or reclaiming pasture, Q&R has the equipment and experience to get it done right.
We use Takeuchi TL12R2 high-flow tracked loaders with mulching heads and brush-clearing attachments. Tracked equipment is essential in Oregon's wet conditions — it handles soft ground and steep terrain without tearing up the soil the way wheeled machines do.
Q&R has been clearing land throughout Marion, Polk, and Linn counties since 1994. Owner Quaid assesses every job personally and provides a written estimate before any work begins. No surprises, no hidden costs.
Land Clearing Services
From a single overgrown lot to multi-acre rural properties — we handle it all.
Blackberry & Invasive Brush Removal
Himalayan blackberry is the most common — and most stubborn — invasive plant in the Willamette Valley. We cut through dense thickets with mulching heads and remove root mass to prevent regrowth.
Overgrown Lot Clearing
Neglected residential and rural lots cleared to a clean, usable state. We remove brush, small trees, stumps, and debris — leaving a level surface ready for your next project.
Site Preparation for Construction
Land clearing is the first step in any new build. We clear and rough-grade the site, removing vegetation and organic material so your foundation or slab starts on solid ground.
Riparian & Waterway Clearing
We have experience clearing near creeks, ponds, and riparian buffer zones throughout the Willamette Valley. We work within Oregon's water quality setbacks and permit requirements.
Pasture & Agricultural Restoration
Reclaim overgrown pasture and farmland. We clear brush, remove fence lines, and regrade as needed to restore productive agricultural ground.
Debris Hauling & Disposal
Cleared material can be mulched in place, piled for burning (with permit), or hauled off-site. We coordinate disposal logistics so you don't have to.

What Our Clients Say
4.8 stars across 25 Google reviews — here's what property owners say about Q&R.
"We had a half-acre completely taken over by blackberries. Q&R cleared the whole thing in two days. The property looks completely different — we can actually use it now."
"Quaid came out, walked the property, and gave us a fair written estimate the same day. The crew was professional and the site was clean when they left. Highly recommend."
"They cleared brush right up to the creek edge without damaging the bank. I was impressed with how careful they were near the water. Great work and great communication throughout."
