Site Clearance

Efficient Tree & Vegetation Removal for All Types of Land

ADS Timber offers reliable, no-fuss site clearance services across Yorkshire and surrounding areas. Whether you’re clearing a small private plot or preparing a large commercial site for development, we’ve got the experience and equipment to get the job done properly.

We remove trees, vegetation, and scrub from sites of all shapes and sizes, working safely, quickly, and with minimal disruption. With over 30 years in the forestry trade, we know how to deal with challenging ground, tight access, and difficult conditions — and we’re proud to take on the jobs others turn down.

Our full-service offering includes:

Full site clearance
We clear sites of trees, stumps, brash, and vegetation to make way for development, construction, landscaping, or replanting.
Commercial and private sites
We work on everything from building plots and access roads to large-scale commercial developments. No job too big or small.
Tree felling and removal
Whether it’s individual trees or full stands, we fell and remove trees safely and efficiently, including dangerous or awkward ones.
Vegetation control
We handle thick undergrowth, brambles, overgrown scrub, and invasive growth — clearing land back to a usable, manageable state.
Brash raking and chipping
All leftover brash is either raked and chipped on site or removed, depending on your needs and plans for the land.
Stump removal and digging work
We remove stumps where required and can dig tracks or prepare ground for the next phase of work — whether it’s planting or building.

When Others Say It Can’t Be Done…

We’ve built a reputation for tackling the tough jobs — steep banks, dense woodland, poor access — you name it. If someone’s told you a site can’t be cleared, give us a call. We’ve not been beaten yet (touch wood 🪵).

We’re fully insured, properly equipped, and used to working in all types of weather and terrain. Our team understands the pressures of development schedules and building projects, so we work quickly and without fuss — turning over clean, tidy land ready for the next phase.

Whether you’re a developer, a private landowner, or a contractor needing a reliable clearance team, ADS Timber is here to help. No nonsense, no delays, just proper work done to a high standard.

Trusted Across Yorkshire for Over 35 Years

We hired A.D.S. Timber to carry out woodland thinning and tree felling on our property in the Dales. Andy and the team were professional, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable. The job was completed efficiently, and the site was left tidy and well-managed. Highly recommend!

I’ve worked with several forestry contractors over the years, and A.D.S. Timber is by far the best. Their knowledge of woodland management is second to none, and their equipment is top of the line. It’s rare to find such a well-rounded team that delivers on every promise.

We've used A.D.S. Timber multiple times for woodland maintenance on our estate and they’ve always done an excellent job. Whether it’s winching awkward trees or chipping brash, they handle every task with care and attention. A pleasure to work with.
