Land Clearing & Skid Steer in Bartow, FL

Acreage south and west of Bartow

In town, Bartow is oaks, azaleas and hundred-year-old houses on the National Register. Drive out SR-60 or US-17 and it turns into phosphate country: worked-over land where the Peace River starts, cut into parcels with a house, a shed and a back fence buried in vines. The oaks that earn the city's nickname are the same oaks that drop into those fences every storm. Owners call when the back of the lot is finally unusable.

Rob brings the grapple for it. Vines and palmetto come off the fence in one pull. Saplings come out with the root. Limbs and downed trunks get stacked and loaded. The machine runs on rubber tracks, so low, soft ground is workable as long as it isn't standing in water. Then the trailer leaves with all of it.

Small pads and the yard behind an Old Bartow house

Not every clearing call is acreage. An Old Bartow lot with a carriage-house garage often has a back corner that's gone wild since the previous owner. The stand-on mini skid steer fits through the gate where the full-size Kubota won't, clears it, and the debris goes out the narrow drive in a dump trailer. On a bigger lot, Rob rough-levels a shed or carport pad with the bucket after the clear. Storm limbs from the big oaks go on the same trailer. Fill dirt to build it up is a separate quote through partner dump trucks.

How Rob prices and schedules Bartow

Bartow is 28 road miles and 44 minutes from the yard by US-27 and SR-60, or US-17 through Winter Haven. Rob groups it with Lakeland, Eagle Lake and Mulberry, so plan on a scheduled day rather than same day. He quotes flat after seeing the lot or your photos and video: $350 for a half trailer of debris, $700 for a full, skid steer time quoted with the job. No add-ons at the end. If a truck is already working the south county, he can look at a lot the same day and bring the machine on the next trip.
