Your neighbours in the Salmon Capital
Campbell River is where Vancouver Island turns wild, with forested benchland rising to the Strathcona mountains and rural acreage stretching south to Oyster River and Black Creek. Clearing here means reclaiming overgrown parcels, prepping building lots out of the timber, and thinning fuel around homes ringed by forest. Timberline connects you with experienced local operators who know North Island terrain, its heavy coastal growth, and its rules — and how to leave your land ready for what's next.
From single overgrown lots to multi-acre parcels — one crew, one quote, no surprises.
Full clearing and prep so your builder can start on a clean, workable site.
We grind brush and small trees in place — no burn piles, no haul-away, instant ground cover.
Blackberry, broom, salal, and alder regrowth cleared back to usable land.
Selective tree removal and stump grinding as part of the same job.
Every Comox Valley property has its own reason. These are the jobs we see most around town.
North Island lots often need clearing before a build. We open the footprint and driveway line from Willow Point to Campbellton.
Rural Oyster River and Black Creek grow back fast. We push back salal, alder, and broom so acreage and pasture earn their keep again.
Campbell River homes sit against the forest. FireSmart thinning and fuel removal around structures buys real protection through dry summers.
Open up Discovery Passage and mountain views, and turn scrub into lawn, garden, or pasture.
Local knowledge
North Island lots run to big Douglas fir, western red cedar, and western hemlock, with big-leaf maple and heavy salal, alder, and broom on cleared ground. This is heavy coastal growth, and we handle dense stands and brushy reclamation alike, mulched in place or hauled — your call.
Campbell River rises from Discovery Passage to forested benchland and the Strathcona foothills, with rural flats south toward Oyster River. Wet-coast ground and long rural driveways are the norm, so we plan machine access and timing so your soil isn’t left rutted.
The City of Campbell River has tree and development permit rules, and the Strathcona Regional District covers rural land. Riparian setbacks matter here — the Campbell and Quinsam rivers are prime salmon water — and ALR land near Oyster River can apply too. We flag what affects your property before work starts.
Four steps from overgrown to ready — no deposits, no surprises on the invoice.
We walk the property with you, talk through options, and give a firm number.
We book a window that suits you — and the ground conditions.
Right-sized machines for your lot, operated by people who do this every day.
Mulched, cleaned, and ready for the excavator, the seed drill, or the housewarming.
Tell us about the job and we'll come take a look — no cost, no pressure, just an honest quote from someone local.

We clear lots and acreage across Campbell River and the North Island — from Willow Point and Campbellton to Quinsam, Oyster River, Black Creek, and over to Quadra Island. If you’ve got ground to clear, we can likely get a machine to it.

It depends on tree density, terrain, and access — most North Island acreage jobs land between $2,000 and $6,000 per acre, with heavy coastal timber at the higher end. The free on-site quote gives you a firm number, not a range.
A brushy half-acre is often a one-day job; a treed multi-acre parcel of heavy coastal growth can run several days. We’ll give you a timeline with the quote.
Either. Forestry mulching grinds everything into ground cover on the spot — usually the cheaper option up here where hauling is a long trip. If you want it gone, we chip and haul instead.
Often, yes. The City of Campbell River and the Strathcona Regional District have rules — riparian setbacks near the Campbell and Quinsam salmon rivers, ALR land near Oyster River, and development permit areas can all require sign-off. We’ll tell you what applies before any work starts.
Late summer through fall, when the wet-coast ground dries out and machines leave the least impact. Well-drained lots can be worked through winter — we’ll assess that at the quote.
