Nevada Land Clearing Contractors at a Glance
| City | Contractors | | |---|---:| | Las Vegas | 5 | |

How Much Do Land Clearing Contractors Charge in Nevada?
Angi reports an average land clearing project cost of $3,780 in 2026, and HomeGuide estimates $1,200 to $8,000 per acre. These measure different things: one is per project, the other per acre. Stump removal, debris haul-off and grading are often priced separately. No published source gives a reliable Nevada-specific average, so use these as national planning figures and get local quotes. See land clearing cost per acre for prices by vegetation, lot size and method.
Nevada Rules That Affect Your Project
| Rule | What it requires | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Call 811 before digging | NRS 455.110 requires the person conducting excavation or demolition to notify the operators’ association (USA North 811) at least 2 working days but no more than 28 calendar days before work starts. USA North 811 serves Nevada counties including Clark, and says each person or company excavating needs its own ticket. | Source |
| Construction stormwater permit | NDEP’s Stormwater Branch requires coverage under Construction Stormwater General Permit NVR100000 for projects that can discharge to a water of the US and disturb one acre or more, or less than one acre if part of a larger common plan of one acre or more, or if NDEP finds a smaller project could affect a receiving water within a quarter mile. The 2015 permit has been administratively continued. | Source |
| Burning cleared brush | NDEP’s Smoke Management Program coordinates open burning in Nevada and takes open burn permit applications online through its AIMS portal; the program does not supersede local governments’ authority to regulate smoke and air pollution. | Source |
Local rules vary by city:
- Las Vegas: In Las Vegas, disturbing a quarter acre or more of soil requires a Clark County Dust Control Operating Permit, which the city requires on its grading applications.
How to Choose a Contractor in Nevada
Walk the property with each bidder or send the same marked site plan. Ask what happens to stumps and roots, whether debris is hauled, burned or mulched, who checks tree, grading and stormwater permits, and what condition the site will be in when the crew leaves. Compare written quotes for the same scope, not headline prices.
For background, read the land clearing guide, land clearing cost per acre and land clearing permits.
