Step 1 of 3
What We Do

We don't just knock the lantana down. We give you back land you can walk, run stock on, and plan around.

Clearing That Actually Holds

Anyone can flatten lantana for a day. The hard part is clearing it so it doesn't come straight back, and doing it without wrecking the ground underneath. We run a 20T excavator, a posi track and a grader, and we take the root systems out properly. When we leave, the paddock is clean, level and ready, not a torn-up mess hiding regrowth.

The Block You Pictured

You bought this place for the open ground, the paddocks, the room to breathe. Instead you've got walls of lantana you can't walk into and land you can't use. We clear it back to what you imagined, grass you can see across, fence lines you can reach, country you can finally put to work instead of fighting.

Land Worth Keeping

Cleared right, a property changes. The scrub's gone, the contours sit clean, and in a season the grass has come through where the lantana used to choke it. It stops looking like a job site and starts looking like the land was always meant to be worked. That's the difference between a quick smash and a clear that lasts.

How We Work

We Work With Your Land, Not Against It

A careless bloke drops a blade, pushes everything into a pile, leaves the roots and your topsoil churned. We read the ground first and clear it so it stays usable.

STEP 01

We Read The Ground

Before anything moves, we walk the block. Where the lantana's thickest, where the fall runs, what soil we're working, so we clear without tearing up country you want to keep.

STEP 02

Cleared Out Properly

The right machine for the job, roots taken out, scrub mulched or stacked clean. Done once, done right, so you're not paying someone to redo it next year.

STEP 03

Land You Can Use

We leave it clean and level, ready for stock, pasture or planning. Come next season the grass is through and the block looks like it was always meant to be open.

Common Questions

Fair Questions Before You Commit

Won't the lantana just grow back?

It will if someone only knocks the tops off and leaves the roots. That's why cheap clearing fails. We take the root systems out and clear it properly, so you're not watching it creep back across your paddock the moment the rain comes.

My block's big and badly overgrown. Is that a problem?

No. Large overgrown rural properties are exactly what we're set up for. We run everything from a 20T excavator to a posi track and grader, so thick lantana across big acreage is normal work for us, not a stretch.

Will you wreck my topsoil clearing it?

That's the worry with the wrong bloke, and a fair one. We read the ground and work with the fall and the soil instead of fighting it, so you keep your topsoil and your land stays usable, not a churned-up mess.

Do I get a fixed price before you start?

Yes. Kyle comes out, walks the block with you and gives you a proper quote, no vague day rates that blow out. You know what it costs before a machine turns up. Honest and upfront, that's how we work.

About Us

Hey, I'm Kyle

I run KRD Earthmoving out of the Lockyer Valley, been going five years now, working for rural owners, farmers, hobby farmers and lifestyle blocks across the valley and Somerset. If you've got land buried under lantana and scrub, that's the work I like getting stuck into.

People pick us for being honest and upfront, and for the quality of the work. I'll tell you straight what your block needs and what it'll cost, and I won't walk off leaving a mess behind me. We've done everything from clearing overgrown country to cleaning out and enlarging an irrigation dam to 230 megalitres.

If you want your property back and you want it done once, give us a yell and I'll come have a proper look.
