Can land clearing include grading after the brush is removed?
Yes. Many projects need clearing first and grading second, especially when the goal is a driveway, pad, pasture edge, or usable yard.
Salem-area Land Clearing

Local silt-loam clay and properties with wooded margins and pasture boundaries can change timing, drainage needs, and the order of clearing, grading, or driveway work.
