Line Clearance Tree Trimmer prevailing wage, Holt County group, Missouri (2 counties)
DLS sets the same line clearance tree trimmer rates, row for row, in 2 counties: Holt and Shelby. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.
$26.79an hour, fringe benefits included · Outside - Groundman Tree Trimmer
One rate, fringe benefits included (DLS prints no split) · Building construction · Contracting minimum (*)
On Missouri public works in each of these 2 counties, a line clearance tree trimmer working as outside - groundman tree trimmer must be paid at least $26.79 an hour. DLS prints one rate with fringe benefits included, so there is no separate base wage.
Annual Wage Order 33 (final May 29, 2026), effective May 29, 2026. The rates attached to the call for bids "shall remain in effect for the duration of that particular contract" (RSMo 290.250). Checked against labor.mo.gov on October 25, 2026.
DLS lists 4 line clearance tree trimmer rates for each of these counties, from $26.79 to $26.79 an hour. See all of them.
- Sub-title of “Electrician (Outside Lineman)”; it shares that title's rate (RSMo 290.257.6).
One rate, fringe benefits included: $26.79
DLS publishes a single hourly figure that already includes fringe benefits. A contractor can pay it all as wages, or pay part as contributions to bona fide benefit plans for the worker, as long as the two add up to at least $26.79. DLS doesn't publish a base and fringe split, so this page doesn't invent one.
When does this rate change?
- The rates attached to the call for bids "shall remain in effect for the duration of that particular contract" (RSMo 290.250). Where a rate comes from a union agreement, DLS may issue replacement pages for its yearly raise.
- DLS files the initial Annual Wage Order by March 10; objections are due in 30 days and the final order by July 1 (RSMo 290.262). AWO 33 was filed March 10, 2026 and became final May 29, 2026.

Notes on this rate
DLS's notes, in DLS's words.
- * Public works contracting minimum wage: DLS received fewer than 1,000 reportable hours for this occupational title in this county, so the rate is 120% of the county's average hourly wage (MERIC data), not a survey average (RSMo 290.257.2, .4(2)).
More from DLS on this rate
- DLS's Annual Wage Order look-up
- The order lists journeyworker rates. Registered apprentices and entry-level workers get 50% of the journeyworker rate, no more than one per journeyworker (RSMo 290.235).
Are you being paid this rate?
Missouri's rate includes fringe benefits, so add your wage to what your employer pays into benefit plans for you and compare it with the rate. Contractors post the rates on site; the contractor forfeits $100 per worker per day of underpayment, and you can sue for double the difference (RSMo 290.250, 290.300). DLS Wage and Hour: 573-751-3403.
