Aggregate Land Solutions

Turn Your Idle Land Assets into a Recurring Revenue Stream

We partner with aggregate leaders to monetize non-mining acreage through professionally managed, fully insured professional hunting leases.

Let’s fix that.

Industry standards suggest that up to 40% of aggregate land holdings are reclamation sites, future reserves or buffer zones. Right now, that land is likely costing you money. Base Camp Leasing transforms those dormant acres into a hands-off profit center without interfering with your daily operations.

A powerful advantage

Why let your buffer zones sit idle when they could be working for you? Our approach solves the three biggest challenges of land ownership simultaneously. We replace tax burdens with profit, eliminate the headache of management, and mitigate your legal risks—giving you a smarter, more profitable way to hold land.

Mitigate risk & liability

Every lease is backed by our $5 Million General Liability Policy. Plus, a consistent, vetted presence on the property deters illegal dumping and trespassing.

Generate ancillary revenue

Create a predictable annual income stream that offsets property taxes on your reserve land.

Eliminate administrative burden

We handle 100% of the agreements, payments, and renewals. Your team does nothing but cash the check.

Customized for the aggregate industry

We understand that extraction is your priority. Our program is built to respect your operations.

No-Go zones

You define the “No-Go Zones” around active pits, crushers, and haul roads to ensure the proper safety. We understand your obligations to meet MSHA requirements.

Hunting rights licenses

Our license agreements are for only the hunting right, ensuring you retain full control of the property at all times.

Qualified members

We don’t open your gates to the public. You get premium members who will treat the land with respect.

Frequently asked questions

Will this interfere with our MSHA compliance?

No. We map clear boundaries that are approved by as No-Go zones. Hunters are restricted strictly to the buffer/reserve parcels that are approved.

What is the administrative burden on our team?

Virtually zero. Base Camp Leasing handles 100% of the member recruitment, licensing agreements, and payment collection and distribution to your account.

Can we terminate a licensing agreement if we need to expand?

Yes. Our licensing agreements are structured for terminations with proper notice to mitigate reimbursements to licensees/members. Base Camp Leasing respects that extraction is your priority and anticipates there will be operational expansion.

How much revenue can our buffer zones generate?

While regional rates vary, our leadership team can provide an accurate estimate that will account for all property attributes, ensuring maximum return. Many clients see a transition from tax-heavy reserve land into a consistent, hands-off annual revenue stream.

Is there any cost to our company to start this?

None. There are no startup fees, marketing costs, or insurance premiums for you to pay. Base Camp Leasing generates revenue by collecting a small commission from the lease hunters, meaning you only see a new, net-positive revenue stream.

How does this support our long-term reclamation or conservation goals?

Managing buffer zones through Base Camp Leasing can directly support your Wildlife Habitat Council (WHC) certification by providing the wildlife population data and land monitoring required for compliance. It turns your reclamation sites into self-funding conservation assets that satisfy community engagement criteria without requiring extra staff time or resources.
