Westmoreland County is rolling hill country east of Pittsburgh — farms, horse properties, and large rural acreage from Murrysville and Export in the west to Latrobe and the Laurel Highlands foothills in the east.
Westmoreland County stretches east of Pittsburgh from the suburban communities near Murrysville and Export to the foothills of the Laurel Highlands near Ligonier and Latrobe. It's a county of rolling hills and valleys — some of the most scenic terrain in Western PA — with a mix of suburban development in the western townships and genuinely rural farmland and forest in the eastern and southern parts of the county. The land clearing work in Westmoreland County reflects that geography. In the western townships near Murrysville, Penn Township, and Plum Borough, we do a lot of residential lot clearing and brush removal on larger suburban properties. Moving east toward Greensburg, Jeannette, and Latrobe, the work shifts toward agricultural: farm fence line clearing, pasture reclamation, and rural property cleanup. The eastern townships near the Laurel Highlands have significant wooded acreage — hunting properties, timber land, and rural parcels where trail clearing and wooded area cleanouts are common. Westmoreland County also has significant invasive species pressure. Multiflora rose is pervasive throughout the county. Autumn olive is common on field edges and disturbed areas. Japanese knotweed is a problem along the Youghiogheny River and its tributaries in the southern part of the county.

"Had a large wooded section of our Murrysville lot cleared for a new garage. SHS did a great job at a fair price. They coordinated with our contractor and had the area ready on schedule."
