Land Clearing Remediation · Van Alstyne, Texas

Cleaning Up
the Mess

Another contractor left brush, trash and debris mixed together across the property. D5 Plus sorted the piles, removed the non-burnable material and brought the cleanup under control.

Corrective Land Clearing

Done wrong.
Then done right.

The original clearing work left large brush piles contaminated with trash and other material that could not legally or responsibly be burned. The recovery started by opening and sorting the piles, hauling away the garbage and consolidating the clean brush before controlled on-site disposal.

The Recovery

Sort first. Dispose correctly.

Mixed clearing debris changes the job. Before any brush could be burned, the piles had to be processed so trash and prohibited material could be removed from the burn stream.

Assess the Existing Mess

The abandoned piles were opened up to determine what was clean vegetation and what had been mixed with garbage or other non-burnable debris.

Separate & Haul Trash

Trash was pulled from the brush and hauled away so only appropriate vegetation remained for on-site disposal.

Consolidate Clean Brush

Legally burnable trees and brush were reorganized into manageable material that could be safely fed into the established burn area.

Controlled Brush Burning

The JCB 55Z loaded the pit in stages, keeping the fire manageable while steadily reducing the accumulated brush.
