Our Story

Southern Illinois land clearing,
done right

Bushwhacker Land Management Inc has been working southern Illinois ground since 1994. We started with a simple idea: do the work right, show up when we say we will, and treat every property like it matters. That approach has carried us through decades of changes in this industry, and it still drives everything we do today.

The owner grew up doing this work. It wasn't a career pivot or a business plan on paper. It was a natural path built from years of hands-on experience with heavy equipment, land, and the kind of jobs most companies won't touch. That background shows up in how we approach every project, from a small lot clearing job to a full substation site development.
