Big Rob's Hauling mini skid steer and Kubota excavator pushing up dumped debris on a Lakeland, FL lot

Field edges and fence lines on Plant City acreage

Leave the brick downtown around Collins and Reynolds Streets and Plant City is farm land in every direction, toward Dover and the county line. Strawberry fields, old packing sheds, and the edge of every field where the oaks and the brush have crept in a few feet a year. A grower wants the edge pushed back to the fence. A family that sold off the fields keeps the house and wants the back acre cleared for a barn. Those are the calls that make an hour's drive worth it.

The grapple pushes the brush line back, pulls saplings root and all, and loads the downed oaks and limbs. Buried fence posts and wire come out with it. If an old packing shed is in the way, that's a demolition call and Rob does those too, but the clearing job stays the clearing job: brush, small trees, fence, hauled off in the trailer the same trip.

House pads on the larger lots around town

A lot being opened for a new house on the acreage outside the grid needs a clean footprint and a drive in from the road. Rob clears it and rough-levels the pad with the bucket. That's as far as he goes: engineered grading, septic and drainage belong to a site contractor. Fill dirt to raise a pad is quoted separately through partner dump trucks. The dump trailers haul debris, not dirt, and Rob keeps that line clear on the quote.

An hour out, scheduled and quoted flat

Plant City is 43 road miles and about 54 minutes straight west on I-4, exit at Park Road or SR-566. It's a scheduled run a day or two out, grouped with Lakeland or other Hillsborough stops, and same day isn't a promise Rob will make at this distance. Text photos and a walkaround video and he quotes flat before the machine comes off the trailer: $350 half trailer, $700 full, skid steer time quoted with the job.

Questions

Land Clearing & Skid Steer in Plant City

Do you clear field edges on working farms around Plant City?

Yes, the small kind. Pushing an overgrown edge back to the fence on one field is a skid steer job. Clearing whole fields or heavy timber is a clearing contractor's, and Rob says which is which after he sees your video.

Can you take out an old packing shed while you're clearing?

Usually. Rob does demolition too, so a shed in the way of the clear can go on the same trip. He quotes it as its own line so you know what's what.

How much notice does Plant City need?

A day or two. It's about 54 minutes from the yard, so Rob books it with Lakeland or other Hillsborough jobs and brings the Kubota and trailer together.

Ready for it to be gone from Plant City?

Call before noon and it's usually gone today. Or text a photo of the pile and Rob sends back a flat quote.
