What We Do

Land Clearing Services

We run one machine and do one thing well, clearing your land fast, clean, and ready for whatever you've got planned.

🌿

Forestry Mulching

One pass turns brush, trees, and undergrowth into ground cover — mulched right where they stood. Nothing to haul. Soil stays intact. Walk-ready when we leave.

🌲

Land Clearing

Trees, stumps, brush piles, overgrown fence lines — we clear it. Residential lots, rural acreage, small commercial sites. If it needs to go, we handle it.

🏗️

Site Preparation

Getting a lot ready for a build, a road, or a fence? We work with homeowners and contractors to get ground cleared and prepped on schedule.

🌾

Fence Line Clearing

Overgrown fence lines and property boundaries reclaimed. Great for farm owners and rural landowners needing access restored without tearing up the ground.

🛤️

ATV Trail Cutting

ATV trails, hunting access, walking paths. We cut clean lines through timber and brush across Central Ohio — Circleville, Madison County, and beyond.

📐

Lot Clearing

New build lots, overgrown vacant parcels, small commercial sites. We move fast, leave a clean site. Individual owners — not subdivision builder lots.

🪚

Tree Work

Single-tree removals, hazard trees near structures, and selective felling for rural landowners. We handle the cut, bucking, and cleanup — you decide what stays and what goes.

🦌

Food Plot Cutting

Clearing for food plots, shooting lanes, and hunting access. The mulch layer left behind is ideal for plot establishment. We cut to your layout in Pickaway and Madison County.

🌱

Invasive Growth Removal

Honeysuckle, multiflora rose, autumn olive, and other invasives taking over your property. We cut and grind it out — mulching them down before they reseed is the cleanest removal method available.

How It Works

What Is Forestry Mulching?

You won't believe how fast your land transforms. Brush, stumps, undergrowth, saplings, invasive growth, and trees up to 8-10 inches are mulched and processed on the spot, left behind as mulch and wood chips. Need that material hauled off instead? Just ask.

No burn piles. No haul-offs. No bare dirt left to erode. The mulch layer holds moisture, protects your soil, and breaks down naturally, faster and cleaner than traditional clearing for most residential and rural jobs.

vs. Traditional Clearing

Traditional clearing cuts trees and hauls the material off-site. That means multiple machines, multiple trips, and bare ground left behind. Mulching does it in one pass with one machine, usually faster and cheaper for residential-scale jobs.

Soil Health

The mulch layer breaks down into organic matter, feeds the soil, and holds it in place. No topsoil loss, no erosion risk. Better for food plots, pasture establishment, and anything growing after the clear.

When It's the Right Tool

Best for brush-heavy land, invasive growth (honeysuckle, multiflora rose, autumn olive), overgrown fence lines, ATV and hunting trails, food plots, pasture reclamation, building site prep, and acreage clean-up.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

What is forestry mulching? +

Forestry mulching uses a high-speed drum with carbide teeth to cut, chip, and spread trees, brush, and undergrowth in a single pass. Everything stays on-site as ground-covering mulch. No hauling, no burn piles, no bare soil. We run a skid-steer fitted with a forestry mulching head, built to handle brush and trees up to 6 to 8 inches in diameter.

How much does forestry mulching cost in Ohio? +

Most forestry mulching jobs in Central Ohio run $1,200 to $4,000 per acre. Light brush, flat land, easy access, and a rougher finish sits at the low end. Heavy brush or woods, slopes, tough access, and a finer finish sits at the high end, and parcels with old debris or years of neglect often run above that too. Ready to get a quote for your property? Tell us about your job here and we'll schedule your free on-site walkthrough, or call today at 614-935-2508.

How much does brush and invasive species removal cost? +

Clearing honeysuckle, autumn olive, multiflora rose, and other invasive brush typically runs $1,200 to $3,000 per acre. Lighter, more scattered growth comes in toward the low end, thick thickets or ground with old debris and neglect push it toward the top. Ready to get a quote for your property? Tell us about your job here and we'll schedule your free on-site walkthrough, or call today at 614-935-2508.

How much does pasture or acreage reclamation cost? +

Reclaiming pasture or a neglected field, larger acreage with a mix of brush, saplings, and invasive growth, typically runs $2,000 to $4,600 per acre. Density and how much debris is buried in the ground drive that number more than the acreage itself. Ready to get a quote for your property? Tell us about your job here and we'll schedule your free on-site walkthrough, or call today at 614-935-2508.

How much does it cost to clear an ATV trail or fence line? +

Trail and fence-line work is priced by the linear foot rather than the acre, since it's a narrow cut through varying ground instead of a whole parcel. Most jobs run $500 to $2,000 per 1,000 linear feet depending on density and terrain, with a half-day minimum on any trip out. Ready to get a quote? Tell us about your trail or fence line here and we'll schedule your free on-site walkthrough, or call today at 614-935-2508.

How long does it take to clear an acre? +

It depends on how dense the ground is. Light brush can run 3 to 5 hours per acre, heavier growth with more timber takes longer, sometimes a lot longer on thick wooded ground. Most residential and rural jobs in Madison, Pickaway, Fayette, and Franklin County still finish in a single day since most lots aren't solid heavy timber. We'll give you a realistic time estimate when we walk the property.

Do you need to be home during the job? +

Not after the initial walkthrough. We'll mark boundaries and discuss anything to avoid before we start — after that, most jobs run without you needing to be present. We check in when we're done and you can do a final walkthrough before we leave.

Can you clear for a food plot or hunting access? +

Yes — food plot cutting and hunting access are some of the most common requests we get in Pickaway and Madison County. The mulch layer left after clearing is great for food plot establishment, and we can cut trails, shooting lanes, and access roads to your exact layout.
