Your Local Tree Service and Land Management Company in Hollywood
Salvation Land Management provides tree service and land management to homeowners, farmers, and landowners throughout the Town of Hollywood — including tree removal, tree trimming and pruning, stump grinding, land clearing, and forestry mulching. Hollywood is an incorporated town, but an unusual one: its limits stretch roughly 16 miles along Highway 162 rather than forming a compact town center, which means a Hollywood address can mean anything from an old farmstead to a newer subdivision lot, and doesn’t by itself tell you whether a property is inside Town limits or still in unincorporated county land.
That history matters for how we approach a property. Hollywood grew from a truck-farming community into a mostly residential town through decades of annexation strung out along the highway corridor, so the town today is a real mix — working land farmed for generations, older homesteads with mature tree cover, and newer residential growth filling in between. We confirm jurisdiction before quoting anything permit-sensitive, rather than assuming a Hollywood address settles the question.
We also work the Rantowles and Stono River area on Hollywood’s eastern edge, where low-lying, marsh-adjacent land brings its own access and drainage considerations that don’t show up on the higher ground closer to Ravenel.
We regularly work with:
- Homeowners on established residential lots throughout Hollywood
- Farmers and rural landowners with working agricultural acreage
- Owners of older homesteads with mature live oaks and pines
- Builders and homeowners developing newer residential lots along the Highway 162 corridor
Services
An oak that’s been shading an old Hollywood farmhouse for sixty years gets handled differently than a storm-damaged pine on a five-year-old subdivision lot, even though both fall under “tree removal” — the age and structure of the tree changes the rigging approach more than the address does.
Emergency removal after a storm covers both ends of that spectrum, including the low-lying stretches near Rantowles where a downed tree can mean blocked drainage too.
Land Clearing in Hollywood, SC
From clearing a residential lot to reclaiming farmland that’s grown over, we clear land across Hollywood’s mix of rural and developing areas. We work around any wetland buffers near the Rantowles and Stono River area, and coordinate with builders on newer lots along the Highway 162 corridor.
We offer full clearing, selective clearing, and debris haul-away, scoped to what the property actually needs rather than a one-size approach for the whole town.
Farmland that’s sat out of active use for a season or two tends to come back in scrub and small trees rather than anything requiring full clearing, and that’s the situation mulching handles most efficiently around Hollywood — one pass, no hauling, no burning.
It’s equally useful for pre-development clearing on newer residential lots along Highway 162, where a lighter touch than full clearing is often all that’s needed.
A canopy tree that’s shaded a Hollywood farmhouse for generations needs a different pruning approach than a five-year-old tree on a new subdivision lot, and we adjust for that rather than pruning every tree the same way. Health, structure, and clearance from rooflines and driveways all factor in.
We also handle storm-prep pruning ahead of hurricane season, which matters most on the older, taller trees that have the most weight to lose control of in high wind.
Stump Grinding in Hollywood, SC
Whether it’s a farm field or a residential yard, a stump left behind gets in the way of whatever comes next — mowing, replanting, or building. We grind below grade so the ground can go straight back into use.
Grinding pairs easily with a removal or can be booked on its own for stumps that have been sitting around a Hollywood property for years, farmland and residential lots alike.
Site Prep & Road Solutions in Hollywood, SC
New residential construction along the Highway 162 corridor and agricultural building sites both need grading and access road work done right. We handle site prep for both, coordinating with builders where relevant.
We also account for drainage patterns near the Rantowles and Stono River area, where site work needs a bit more planning than higher ground closer to town center.
Bush Hogging in Hollywood, SC
A Hollywood field sitting out a season doesn’t need full clearing, just enough mowing to keep scrub and small growth from taking over before the land goes back into use. Bush hogging handles that at a fraction of the cost.
It also keeps fence lines and access paths open on larger rural properties between bigger projects.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Service in Hollywood, SC
How much does tree removal cost in Hollywood?
The bigger cost factor here is usually which kind of property it is — an old farmhouse lot with decades-old oaks prices differently than a tree on a newer subdivision lot with easy truck access. Small trees generally run $300–$800, mid-size $800–$1,500, and large old-growth trees $1,500–$4,000 or more. We confirm the number after seeing the tree.
What does land clearing cost per acre in Hollywood?
Farmland reclamation and residential lot clearing tend to price differently, since the vegetation and terrain aren’t the same. Expect $1,500–$5,000 an acre for full clearing, or $500–$2,000 an acre if forestry mulching handles it instead. We scope the specific property before quoting rather than using a flat town-wide rate.
My address says Hollywood — how do I know if I'm actually inside town limits?
It isn’t always obvious. Because the Town’s boundary runs roughly 16 miles along Highway 162 rather than sitting in a compact area, properties with a Hollywood mailing address can still fall in unincorporated Charleston County. We check the actual jurisdiction before quoting anything that requires a permit.
Do I need a permit for tree removal or land clearing in Hollywood?
It depends on whether your property is inside Town limits or the surrounding unincorporated county, which — as above — isn’t always clear from the address alone. We confirm which jurisdiction applies and what it requires as part of your estimate.
What's the difference between land clearing and forestry mulching?
On Hollywood’s working farmland, mulching is usually the more practical choice — it clears brush and overgrowth without pulling the property out of agricultural use. On newer residential lots headed for construction, full clearing with debris hauled off-site is typically what’s actually needed. We’ll recommend whichever matches what you’re doing with the land.
Do you work on both farmland and residential lots?
Yes. Hollywood’s mix of working agricultural land and residential growth along Highway 162 is exactly the kind of variety we handle regularly — the approach changes by property, the crew and equipment don’t.
Does the Rantowles and Stono River area need a different approach for storm response?
Somewhat. Low-lying, marsh-adjacent land near Rantowles floods and drains differently than higher ground elsewhere in Hollywood, which can affect both access after a storm and root stability beforehand. We factor that in when responding to emergency calls in that part of town.
Are you licensed and insured for tree service work in SC?
Yes. We carry general liability and workers’ compensation coverage, hold SC contractor licenses and OSHA safety certifications, and have ISA certified arborists on staff.
