Mat Services & Products

Northern Clearing has an impressive portfolio of diverse projects, many involving challenging topography. We have transported, installed, forwarded and removed millions of mats throughout our 56 year history, ensuring you that we are the most qualified people for the job. Timber mats have a dual purpose: they protect equipment while also reducing landscape destruction during pipeline and other construction projects. Northern Clearing provides a complete range of mat services, including unique and versatile composite mats in addition to standard timber matting. 

LOGISTICS

We transport all of our mats with a fleet of log trucks utilizing Zonar (GPS) and Fleetio, in addition to the use of dedicated off-road equipment. This enables us to move mats over the road or on the right-of-way safely and efficiently.

PLACING

Need to build a road through a swamp, and get it done right the first time? We’ve got years of experience with air bridges, crossovers, road building and so on.

REMOVAL

Once the mats are no longer needed, our fleet of forwarders and self-loader log trucks will get those mats off the right-of-way and on to your destination of choice.

DISPOSAL

Northern Clearing can easily remove damaged mats.
