Get your plot back, without burning anything
In Corfu's mild, wet climate a neglected plot can turn into a wall of brambles, cane, ivy and Mediterranean scrub within a couple of seasons. Old terraces disappear, paths close up, and the land becomes a fire risk and a hiding place for pests.
We clear it with a compact tractor and a brush shredder, also called a mulcher or, in Greek, a 'destroyer'. It cuts through thick growth and chops it into mulch that stays on the ground, so there is nothing to burn and, for most jobs, nothing to haul away. Where the growth is too thick, too steep or full of hazards, we cut by hand first and finish with the machine.
Because our machines are small, we can work on terraces, behind narrow gates and between trees where a large machine would not fit. Tell us the size of the plot and how thick the growth is, and we will estimate the time before you commit to anything.

How the job works
Photos and a map pin
You send photos and the location. We check the terrain, the thickness of the growth and the access.
Walk-through and no-go list
Before we start, you point out what must stay: trees, plants, walls, wells, pipes and boundary markers.
Shredding
We work the plot in passes, with the tractor first and hand tools around trees, walls and edges.
Tidy finish
We leave the ground clear and mulched. If you want it kept that way, we can come back once or twice a year.
Hidden hazards
Overgrown plots often hide old wells, cisterns, irrigation pipes, terrace walls and broken concrete. If you know where any of them are, tell us before we start. Clearing is also the first step for many other jobs, see fire-prevention clearing and boundary clearing for a land survey.
Common questions
How thick a growth can you clear?
Brambles, cane and scrub with thick woody stems can be shredded by the tractor. Bigger trees are cut first with a chainsaw, see tree removal. Send photos and we will tell you what will work.
Do you burn the cut material?
No. Burning is restricted, especially in the dry season, so we shred the growth into mulch or haul it away.
Can you work on steep or terraced land?
Often yes, because our tractors and excavators are small. Very steep slopes are done partly by hand. Tell us the slope and access in your message.
What time of year is best?
Late winter to early summer, before the growth dries out and becomes a fire risk. We clear all year, though the tractor works best when the ground is not soaking wet.
