Direct answer
What belongs in a land-clearing parcel brief?
A useful parcel brief includes the service location, authority to request work, approximate area, vegetation, intended outcome, retained zones, access dimensions and surface, known structures and constraints, debris preference, representative photos, and desired timeline.
Parcel facts
Record the address or parcel reference, your authority to request work, approximate acreage or dimensions, intended use, areas to preserve, and your desired time window.
- Survey or known boundaries
- Structures, fences, wells, septic, and overheads
- Known easements, utilities, wet areas, or drainage paths
- Representative photos from safe locations
Original planning diagram — not a survey, diagnosis, permit decision, or site plan.
Access facts
Record gate width, road surface, turns, grades, culverts, bridges, overhead clearance, soft spots, and a safe staging or turnaround area. A provider must decide whether equipment access is workable.
Download or send yourself the guide
The PDF is available directly. The optional form below records a one-time guide-delivery request only; it does not create recurring-email permission. Because no public delivery mailbox is verified, the same-session return keeps the download immediately available.
Capture the route, not only the gate
Measure or estimate the gate opening, then describe the complete approach: road width and surface, turns, grades, culverts or bridges, overhead clearance, soft areas, roadside entry, staging, and turnaround. A provider must decide whether its equipment and transport can use that route safely and lawfully.
Keep uncertain facts labeled as uncertain. A worksheet is not a survey, utility locate, wetlands review, load-rating opinion, permit decision, or equipment-access approval. Attach official records or qualified findings later when they control the work.

Questions landowners ask
Do I have to provide an email to get the guide?
No. The HTML checklist and PDF download are ungated.
Does the guide determine equipment access?
No. It helps you collect facts; the provider must evaluate access and site conditions.
Why should I record both acreage and access?
Area helps describe the work quantity, while access can determine which equipment can reach the work and where it can stage or turn. Both still require provider verification.
