Richmond sits in the northeast corner of Macomb County on the St. Clair County line, fifty minutes from Royal Oak up Gratiot. The township around it is the least populated in the county: flat farm ground draining to the Clinton River on one side and the Belle River on the other, woodlots, hunting parcels, the end of the Macomb Orchard Trail, and new subdivisions going in on the edges of town.

Richmond is growing on farm ground, and that is where most of the work is: a split off a section that needs the house site and the drive cleared, a new subdivision backing onto a hedgerow, a woodlot that has to give back the acre it took from the field. The hunting parcels toward Casco and Columbus are the other half of the calendar, and the commercial ground on Gratiot fills the gaps.

Where we work in Richmond and Richmond Township: the City of Richmond, Richmond Township and the Gratiot (M-19), Division, 32 Mile, 33 Mile and Armada Ridge road corridors.

Questions We Hear in Richmond

Do you clear commercial lots in Richmond?

Yes. Vacant commercial ground along Gratiot and 32 Mile is cleared to a mulch layer that can be mowed, with no debris pile waiting for a hauler. See commercial land clearing.

When is the best time for field-edge work around Richmond?

A frozen week in January or the dry end of August, when the clay carries the machine without a mark. Building sites and commercial lots can be done in any season.
