Lot Clearing | Part One

[@kathrynhelm4176]

What a bunch of Nastiness!! A monster tree, a hidden scrap metal dump and obnoxious vines....this was a hum-dinger!! Can’t wait to see how you finish up.

[@philipfloyd4038]

I had a stroke so I have the time to watch a lot of KZbin videos. I love your videos. You made it my number one on KZbin. Keep up the good work. Thanks again! Philip in Charleston.

[@stevehardman960]

Hi john and team another GREAT job looking forward to vid 2 keep working hard and don't forget to bless the Lord ....♥️from all in the UK

[@garydillon3960]

Hello John and crew. I enjoy watching your video's and the final results. I commend you on not being afraid of being a Christian. When Christ returns there are going to be a lot of miserable people. Keep Christ in your hearts because God is always is under control. God Bless.

[@melissadyche8325]

I loved it when you pushed that big tree over that was really cool

[@ManOfGod-70]

Awesome job guys. Hello Micah. I believe that is the way you spell it. God Bless you guys. Can't wait for part two.

[@fishingrva]

I only watched a little of the video but I did watch you explaining why you don't haul away material. I guess it's beneficial to explain to people why it's not cost effective especially when you have a mulching head. Even though... it should be self explanatory. But I really like the finished results of your jobs and I think you and your guys do a good job. Keep up the good work. 👍👍

[@RumMonkeyable]

Really enjoyed your recent Q & A session. You and Mrs. John make a great couple.....and, business managers. Always look forward to your videos. Sorry to see the old oaks and chimney get cleared-out, but understand it's the way of progress and residential development....especially in the Greenville area....a beautiful part of the world. ❤️️👍😊

[@philglover2973]

Hi John an excellent video well done top job top team awesome thanks y'all be safe out there bud peace

[@kemperbrushskidderllc3872]

Thanks for all the great videos man!

[@avelezusmc7929]

You guys do excellent work

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Thanks for the support!

[@jimtillinghast9584]

Great video good work as always looking a lot better thanks

[@merrittanderson5429]

These guys are legit. I’ve used them and so has my church. Hire these guys if you’re in the upstate.

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Thank you Merrit!!

[@Southernbred52]

John, your face when you pushed that big tree over was like a kid at Christmas lol

[@mykxtyr]

It's John from Upstate brush control

[@grade-aland2388]

I think yall make good progress mulching the material up instead of hauling out. Plus don’t have to worry bout rocks when your pulling everything up with the mini. I haul out all mine and burn but I don’t have a mulcher. Great work enjoy your videos.

[@edwardgarea7650]

Yet another excellent video. Your camerawork keeps getting better and better, and I attribute that to the fact that you have one heck of an editor, and as she’s a superb photographer (I’ve been to her channel), I’m sure she taught you all about the placement of your camera. You should give her a shout out every now and then. This video is also an excellent one for showcasing your business. It lets potential customers know that you’re not just a mulching contractor, that you also handle land clearing, grading and excavation. With the grading you intend to do, I think you will soon be in the market for a dozer. A Caterpillar D-4 would be perfect. Congratulations to your new employee. I hope he’s around for a long time. It helps that he can use Willie and Josh as role models. Looking forward to the next part.

[@Senegal01]

Up here in yankee country we plant Wisteria for their flowers, I had some at my old home and will have at new one in year or so. I put a 16 foot 4x4 in ground for them to grow up. My son in NC has it growing wild, beautiful plant but a pain in the butt. Also if I was near you I be metal detecting where that old house was!!!!!LOL

[@brucebenson9651]

One of your best videos. But that site was a mess. It's a shame people leave so much trash on their land. If I have an old tire I don't through it in the woods. I get the clearing of the old trees (ceptic lines, future dead fall on the house) but how amazing would the new property be with them and it would add value to the lot. I would build my lot around them. You guys are great and love your videos!

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Thanks for watching! We appreciate it!

[@daniele.woodhead1218]

That was an awesome text book take down on the old oak tree. I watch a lot of you tube videos from let'sdig18, Logger Wade, Dirt Perfect and cotontop3 , elite earthworks just to name a few so cool John 130 Deer is amazing ♥️💯5 ⭐'S

Hard work done👍🚜

[@coolmoodee]

Hi everybody ... this is John

[@forky-reviews-and-rants]

Another top job from you guys..Great video.Stay Safe

[@DanKoning777]

Not trying to be critical [easy to do while I sitting at a PC]. Just *doz that mess into a pile, and burn it down until only the metals, and concrete/bricks were left.* Too much fuel, time, and wear/tear on your equipment spent picking through twigs. jmo. *Always enjoy your videos; God Bless.*

[@emeyers5984]

Another great job! Man, that’s a teeth jarring ride. I would have a headache running that one. Props to you.

[@michaelkoop6731]

Great job lots of work. Keep up the good jobs.

[@Rickimusic]

By the sound of it, I would say no. Metal shims and even they wear down way too fast.

[@jplunkett3647]

Thank you in advance = nice to MIX it up for us KZbinrs viewing ( Smile ) with you in excavator performing Work activities ... while another Grinding ASV / Fecon .. then Ventrac

[@brockshields9336]

Good Grief, What A Mess ! ! ! All that trash metal tangled up in vines. A pain in the @$$ to separate. Looking pretty slicked off there at the end, though.

[@rawhideadventures9515]

Who watches KZbin videos on a holiday? UBC fans, that's who.

[@UpstateBrushControl]

UBC has the best fans!

[@cathiwim]

Wouldn’t miss it!

[@milleb17020]

Surprised you did not run into a lot more critters. It's amazing how just removing some Vines can make a property look better

[@troytippins3676]

Looks like you might have stumbled across an old still there. 😊

[@shaynelowther8893]

Please please dont get into burning it its much better you keep things as they are.It always looks great when you are done.

[@58unclesam]

It doesn’t look nice, it looks beautiful after you get finished!

[@kennethhume8628]

Another great video but that beeper unit on the excavator was a pain in the ass .

[@dirtroadsailing6418]

Wisteria is like Kudzu, once it takes hold you can't get rid of it.

[@jeffmayeux1692]

Hey Dirt Road Sailing. Over here in Louisiana we have lots of Wisteria. Looks like it is similar to kudzu in root structure. And it has a beautiful pod/flower. I have one that I trim as a decorative bush. But it spreads very fast in all directions. Gotta keep on top of it.

[@Rickimusic]

That looks like Chinese wisteria, not the American plants we have and keep under control.

[@58unclesam]

I don’t know about gold but I could have sworn a couple of minutes ago you picked up a human rib cage 😱

[@Nates707]

Any plans for a root rake attachment for that big excavator

[@panzercom2002]

Is there any way to purchase one of your company hats?

[@merrittanderson5429]

...even though John talks to himself a lot 😉

[@chevymudding01]

Heck yeah 👍🏻🇺🇲

[@nathanieldietrich140]

make a pizza oven out of that old chimney, or BBQ.

[@MichealAEdwards]

Yeah its a shame that its being pulled down

[@tripler3724]

How are the vines dealt with after you are finished? Seems like they are everywhere you look.

[@dennismahonchak3228]

Great video, sorry to see all the junk . Maybe the house burned and the pushed what was left off to the side years back. But if that was the case, why leave the chimney. Can't figure that out.

[@cathiwim]

Dennis Mahonchak didnt have excavators back then to knock it down. There are a lot of old standing chimneys and silos in East TN

[@MT-gv8ns]

Do you receive any feedback that mulching in place contributes to building topsoil faster? Soil retention?

[@billybobharrison8005]

John now that you have a new work man please don't let Josh feel like the second born LOL

[@Bass2010]

You found the old Homestead dump pile how know what you’ll find in there 👍👍👍👍

[@adventureshack]

on these old home places have you ever found grave markers?

[@PMac-jk7wu]

John why not get headset so you all can communicate while on the machines.

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

Doesn't everything grow back in a few months?

[@evergreenacres]

Everything but the kitchen sink. Never mind there’s the kitchen sink.

[@billthomas8635]

Hey John, Really enjoy your vids. I live in Georgia. Which is harder to clean up Wisteria or Kudzu?

[@brianreynolds842]

When you hit that scrap pile, how many times did you want to use "non-Sunday School" words? [What a mess!!!]

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Ha, none at all.

[@shanesnouffer1977]

Hey John I'm not being judgmental but I'm curious wouldn't it be easier to leave the small suckling and vines where the are originally and run the fecon over it where it is rather than spending the extra time and effort to grub it and place it somewhere else

[@kentuckycornbread8502]

Ah the new guy. Should have just took him there with a pole saw and said this is it. Then waited about 5 mins for willy and Josh to pull up with the other equipment 😂

[@UpstateBrushControl]

That would have been priceless! Next time.

[@MichealAEdwards]

I'm curious why you dont spray with weedkiller a few weeks before you clear the site, wouldnt that inhibit regrowth better than just mulching?

[@mikeeinsc]

How many times have you dug into a yellow jacket nest in the ground !!! Those things will make your good day go bad in a hurry !! :)

[@Khanabyss420]

You guys see that let’s take a looksies..... cuts to next clip .... what did you see!!!!

[@see207]

MAN YA;LL READY DO A GOOOOD JOB ,,,,BUTCH SPRINGHILL,,LA

[@MyTractorGuy]

I'm always afraid I'm going to find a body one day. We cleared an area for a billboard along the interstate one time and I just knew I was going to find something bad. 😳 So did all that trash haul off cost you extra you were not expecting?

[@kathibaird6529]

So are you allowed burn piles where your at, Burn the Bad Wisteria??

[@UpstateBrushControl]

It all depends on the area and location of the job.

[@tedwpx123]

Good video👍 Did those plastic shims hold up you put in your excavator?

[@stevepedrotti9848]

And your leaving all the biomass there for the microbs to feed on and build fertile top soil, i do this is well and get asked the same question, craziness scrapping up good top soil and paying to put into landfill, bad for the environment and your customer is left with shit subsoil, onsite shredding is definitely far superior for the clients asset keep up the good work, once people think about it its a no brainer

[@MammaA1978]

Wow all the vines, think you were in Africa.

[@stephenbutz2621]

If you chip up wisteria and leave it lay , will it regrow in a million new plants ??😂

[@beckylavine5486]

This is the first time I noticed how much you get shaken while working. Are your muscles sore at the end of the day?

[@BoDogg]

keep the DEF from freezing it is 70% water

[@kennethhume8628]

I moan about bindweed in my garden but it’s nothing compared to Wisteria . 🇬🇧

[@p.b.sHUNTING]

I don't get why you guys don't have a burn pile burning while on the jobs that would be convenient. Bigger bulky debris can burn instead of having to haul or spend time with the Fecon which wears the teeth out. I frequently work in areas of developments and they all have debris piles burning while in this phase. During final grading I could understand hauling off

[@cathiwim]

Victor King Jr not all localities would allow that.

[@p.b.sHUNTING]

@@cathiwim the local government doesn't determine that...the state forestry commission does. As long as its not in a zoned municipality as in "city boundaries".....a burn permit is all that is required. I live in SC (same state as this video) and a 1-800# is all that is required for brush cleanup....a forestry burn isnt much more involved and the permit can be done in less than an hour.

Such a shame to take out those huge oak trees.

[@cathiwim]

Kirk Wilson if not taken down those big oak trees(which are often hollow in the middle) can flatten an expensive house real quick in a bad storm!

[@wolfpacva]

@@cathiwim anything is possible but it is still a shame it might last another 100 yrs. I knew someone that just built a b rand new house and a tornado came thru and took it down the day they finished the house.
