Oregon City Tree Removal & Land Clearing Project

Oregon City Tree Removal & Land Clearing at Trinity Lutheran Church

This week’s featured project took place at Trinity Lutheran Church in Oregon City, Oregon, where our crew completed a large-scale tree removal, land clearing, and site cleanup project across approximately 1.5 to 2 acres of trail and property space.

This job is a perfect example of the type of work North Woods Tree Service handles—large, detailed projects that require the right crew, equipment, and execution.

Project Scope & Work Completed

Over the course of two weeks, our team completed:

  • Removal of 40+ dead cedar trees

  • Removal of 10+ additional trees, including Douglas firs

  • Clearing of hazardous hanging limbs (“hangers”) above trails

  • Full trail clearing and access restoration across the property

  • Clearing of a 600-foot section for new fencing

  • Stump grinding for approximately 40 stumps

  • Debris burning and full site cleanup

  • Hauling of four full 40-yard truckloads of logs

This project required a 6-man crew, multiple pieces of heavy equipment, and precise coordination to complete safely and efficiently.

Equipment & Execution

To complete a job of this scale, we brought in:

  • Bucket trucks for elevated removal and overhead hazard work

  • Two excavators for clearing, moving material, and site prep

  • Professional stump grinder for full stump removal

  • Additional support equipment for hauling, cutting, and cleanup

This combination allowed us to move quickly while maintaining control and safety, especially in areas with trails, structures, and foot traffic.

Why This Project Mattered

This wasn’t just tree removal—it was about:

  • Eliminating hazardous dead trees

  • Making trails safe and accessible again

  • Opening up usable land for the property

  • Preparing sections for fencing and future use

  • Reducing fire risk and falling hazards

Large properties like this require more than basic tree work—they require a complete land management approach.

Local Tree Work in Oregon City

Projects like this are common across Oregon City and Clackamas County, where properties often deal with:
