About Hartz Land Solutions in Wilsonville, AL

Family-Owned Excavation Company Built on 20 Years of Equipment Experience

Hartz Land Solutions is a licensed land and excavation company serving Wilsonville and surrounding areas, founded by Joe Hartz after two decades operating heavy equipment and performing dirt work across Alabama. Joe runs both this excavation business and an established collision repair shop, and he's brought his son Landon into the operation to build something lasting—a family company where equipment skill and commercial-grade work define every project.


You'll work directly with Joe and Landon on every job. Joe's 20 years of hands-on equipment operation means he knows how dirt moves, how drainage patterns develop, and what it takes to prep a site correctly the first time. Landon brings modern energy and operational efficiency to the field. Together, they handle the type of work that requires precision equipment control and experienced judgment—not just moving dirt, but shaping land for long-term stability and function.


We specialize in start-to-finish site preparation and dirt moving: land clearing, excavation, grading, drainage systems, erosion control, and full-scale equipment operation. Our focus is commercial work, larger residential projects, and month-long jobs that demand both technical skill and project consistency. We're not positioned as the lowest-cost option for every small job—we're built for bigger scope work where equipment expertise and licensed operations matter.

Commercial-Grade Equipment Operation for Larger Scope Projects

Joe started Hartz Land Solutions after spending 20 years operating heavy equipment and performing dirt work for others. He understood what separated adequate excavation from precision site work—equipment control, drainage planning, and the ability to read land conditions as they develop. Starting this company meant bringing that expertise under one roof, where every operator knows the equipment and every project gets the attention it requires.



Running both an excavation company and a collision repair shop has taught Joe how to manage operations, maintain equipment to commercial standards, and build systems that support quality work. Bringing Landon into the business adds a second generation committed to the same standards—family ownership that plans for growth, not quick turnover.


We focus on projects that require sustained attention: multi-week site prep jobs, commercial land clearing, excavation work where drainage and grading tolerances matter, and erosion control installations that protect long-term investment. Our equipment fleet and operational experience support the type of work where mistakes are expensive and precision saves time and cost down the line.

Licensed Operations and Decades of Hands-On Dirt Work Experience

When you hire Hartz Land Solutions, you're working with a father-and-son team that operates every piece of equipment personally. Joe's two decades in the field mean he's seen how soil behaves in different conditions, how water moves across graded surfaces, and what it takes to deliver a site ready for the next phase. Landon's involvement ensures projects stay on schedule and communication stays consistent. You won't navigate multiple subcontractors or wonder who's actually running the machine—you'll work directly with the people who own and operate this business.
