Bobcat grading North Palm Beach owners can book: lot pads, drainage falls and driveway bases shaped by a Bobcat T740 with a 60" grapple and an operator, $1,385/day. Call (561) 779-3213 and the free estimate counts the days your ground needs.
North Palm Beach is a built-out village on a narrow strip between the Intracoastal Waterway and U.S. Highway 1, and most grading calls here are small, exact jobs on finished lots: a pad that has to sit level after a teardown, a yard that holds water against a slab, a driveway base that has settled. The Bobcat T740 is compact enough to work inside a village lot, and its 60" grapple cuts, carries and spreads the material in the same pass.
The price starts from one number: $1,385 per day with an operator. How many days depends on how far off the ground is, whether fill has to come in or be moved on the lot, and how tight the access is. That is worked out on the lot at the free estimate, not from a table. If you are still deciding between clearing and grading, our land clearing Palm Beach County page sorts the jobs.
The Village. North Palm Beach is an incorporated village with its own Community Development Department at Village Hall, 501 U.S. Highway 1. Grading that changes how water leaves a lot, or that sits near a seawall, swale or easement, is a question for the Village before the machine arrives. We confirm the right desk for your parcel before booking rather than guessing.
Drainage. Lot drainage in the village is public infrastructure as well as private yard. Water cannot be pushed onto a neighbor, and works that touch a canal or a water body can bring in the South Florida Water Management District. A grade that looks fine on a dry day has to still work in August.
The community. Many North Palm Beach addresses sit inside deed-restricted communities such as Lost Tree Village and Old Port Cove, and associations commonly run their own architectural review before a visible change to a lot. That is a separate step from the Village.
A small grading call, such as a yard regrade, a driveway-base touch-up or a drainage fall, is often a one-day booking, so the figure is the day rate: $1,385 with an operator for the T740 and grapple. A full building pad or a combined clear-and-grade runs more days at the same daily rate. Estimates are free. Our cost guide explains what moves a bigger job.

Our Bobcat T740 with a 60-inch grapple is $1,385 per day with an operator. A small yard regrade or driveway-base job is often one day; a building pad runs more days at the same rate. The free estimate counts the days for your lot.
It depends on the work. Grading that changes drainage, or that sits near a seawall, swale or easement, is a question for the Village of North Palm Beach Community Development Department at Village Hall, 501 U.S. Highway 1. We confirm the right desk for your parcel before booking.
Lot drainage is checked by the Village, and works that touch a canal or water body can involve the South Florida Water Management District. Water cannot be pushed onto a neighbor, so we plan the fall before the machine moves any dirt.
Often, yes. Many North Palm Beach addresses sit inside deed-restricted communities, and an association commonly runs its own architectural review for a visible change to a lot. That is separate from the Village.
Clearing removes what is growing on a lot; grading shapes the ground underneath it. A bare yard that still puddles is a grading job.
