Forestry mulching

Vegetation	Range (per acre)
Light scrub & underbrush	$1,500–$2,000
Moderate — mixed brush, small trees	$2,000–$2,500
Dense palmetto / heavy overgrowth	$2,500–$3,000

Half-day minimum on small jobs. What counts as "dense" is the honest question — that's what the walk-through settles before you owe anyone anything. The per-acre cost guide works these three tiers through a real three-acre parcel.

Land clearing

Job type	Range
Typical Shores/Marion Oaks building lot	$2,000–$6,000 flat
Light clearing, per acre	$1,500–$3,000
Heavy clearing + grubbing + haul, per acre	$4,000–$8,000+
Fence lines & driveways	Quoted by run

The variables that move the number: tree density and size, grubbing vs. surface clearing, haul-off vs. mulch-on-site, and machine access. Every quote itemizes them.

Why publish this?

Because "free estimate" too often means "number invented after we've sized up your driveway." Publishing the chart keeps us honest and saves everyone's time: if your job can't possibly fit these ranges, you find out before anyone drives out — and if it fits, sending the parcel details gets the walk-through on the calendar. The written quote you get after the walk-through is the price — the only thing that changes it is you changing the job.
