But... What exactly is forestry mulching?

Forestry mulching uses one machine to clear small trees, brush, and invasive plants. It turns them into mulch as it goes, leaving the mulch on the ground.

Unlike traditional land clearing, which uses bulldozers to push trees into piles, crews to cut and stack brush, and trucks to haul it away, forestry mulching clears the land with one machine in a fraction of the time.

The Branch Manager team were absolutely awesome! We couldn't be happier with the forestry and land clearing work this team did for us. From start to finish, both Phil and Sam were professional, courteous, dependable, and extremely hardworking. They did everything they said they would do and truly went above and beyond our expectations. What really impressed us was their attention to detail. They didn't just complete the land clearing and call it done. They took the extra time to clean everything up beautifully, Sam even took the time to weedeat around our fence and picked up pieces of wood.

Excellent experience with Branch Manager and its owner Phil. They brought in a skid steer with a mulching head to clear lots of downed trees and heavy piles of debris from our property. The owner/operator was highly skilled & we are blown away by the transformation of our property. They went above and beyond, and our property has never looked better. HIGHLY RECOMMEND… outstanding work and worth every penny !!

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions Property Owners Ask Before Clearing Land

How much does land clearing / forestry mulching cost?

A: Land clearing and forestry mulching costs vary based on terrain, vegetation density, slope, access, and any obstacles like fencing, debris, or trash.

In general, pricing typically ranges from about $2,500–$3,500 per acre for most standard conditions. This includes labor and equipment, with final pricing confirmed after a site visit. In some cases, a mobilization fee may apply depending on the property’s location and accessibility.

How long will my project take to complete?

A: The timeline depends on the size of the area, how dense the vegetation is, and the terrain. Light brush on smaller areas can often be cleared in a single day, while thicker woods or uneven ground may take longer. For example, about 1 acre of moderately wooded land with small trees and brush typically takes around a full day to complete. Heavier, more densely wooded acreage may take longer.

We’ll assess your property and provide a clear time estimate before work begins.

Will your equipment damage my property?

A: Our forestry mulching equipment is designed to minimize ground disturbance while clearing your land. We use steel-tracked machines that distribute their weight evenly, reducing soil compaction and helping protect your lawn, driveway, and surrounding landscape. No land-clearing project is completely impact-free, especially in wet or steep conditions, but we carefully plan each job to minimize disturbance and leave your property in the best condition possible.

Our goal is to improve your land—not create more work for you.

What thickness of trees can you handle?

A: We can typically mulch trees and brush up to about 6-9 inches in diameter, depending on species and conditions. Forestry mulching is best suited for clearing understory, brush, and small to mid-sized trees rather than large timber. Please NOTE that we are not a tree removal service.

Will brush grow back?

A: Forestry mulching does not permanently prevent regrowth. In the first year, the mulch layer helps suppress weeds and slows new growth while it begins breaking down. Grasses and native plants often come back first.

Over time, especially without follow-up maintenance, brush and woody vegetation can gradually return depending on soil conditions, sunlight, and the surrounding seed bank.
