What Is Forestry Mulching?

Forestry mulching is a single-step method for removing unwanted vegetation without hauling, burning, or disturbing topsoil. Using a high-powered rotary mulcher attached to our skid steer, we shred underbrush, saplings, and trees up to 8 inches thick—turning them into a protective layer of mulch that decomposes naturally.

Our Forestry Mulching Process

  • Site Assessment & Planning – We inspect your property, identify obstacles, and design an efficient clearing strategy that fits your goals—whether it’s creating trails, prepping for construction, or reclaiming overgrown land.

  • Marking Boundaries & Safety Zones – Before machines start, we flag property lines, utilities, and protected trees to ensure accuracy and safety.

  • Mulching & Grinding – Using state-of-the-art mulching heads, we grind vegetation flush with the ground, leaving behind a layer of shredded material that prevents regrowth and nourishes the soil.

  • Final Cleanup & Inspection – We make a final pass to level mulch and confirm that your land is clean, accessible, and ready for its next phase.

Benefits of Forestry Mulching
