Our Story
The history of Oakland Hills Brush Clearing dates back to 1982, when we used goats to clear overgrowth! Today, instead of goats, our professional crews are trained to use commercial-grade, hand-held power equipment to clear brush and provide yard cleanup services. We are transitioning to electric-powered equipment and are fully compliant with Oakland's new ordinance that bans gas-powered blowers and string trimmers.
Fire prevention is extremely important in California. Overgrown yards, lots, and other properties in the Oakland Hills area can be a major fire hazard and could result in a citation from the fire department that requires you to clear them.
We have built our reputation on being the experts in fire abatement services across 40+ years of experience.

Oakland Hills did a great job clearing the brush on our large hillside! I really appreciated their transparency and willingness to work with my budget by both prioritizing where/how to clear and being thoughtful about who they were scheduling to do the work. They were professional, timely, and communicative through the whole process. I will definitely use their service again next year!
