Land clearing in Cisco, Texas is ranch work at ranch scale. The Cross Timbers country along I-20 grows mesquite, cedar, and prickly pear faster than grazing land can afford, and clearing it takes machines that measure production in acres per day, not hours per tree. Our high horsepower dedicated mulchers do exactly that, and skid steer mulchers handle the close work around pens, tanks, and headquarters.
Around Cisco, Eastland, Ranger, and Rising Star we handle mesquite removal and pasture reclamation, cedar clearing in the draws, hunting lane and sendero cutting with food plot and blind pad prep, fence line and right of way corridors, and tank site work. The mulch stays down to protect the soil and slow regrowth, with no burn piles and no haul trucks.
Pricing is simple. Skid steer mulchers run $3,000 per day with transport included. High horsepower dedicated mulchers run $4,000 per day plus transport, and on open ranch country they are almost always the better value per acre. Photos or onX pins get most Eastland County quotes done the same day, whether your place is in Cisco, Eastland, Ranger, Carbon, Gorman, or Moran. Call 512-400-2693 and a project manager will answer, seven days a week.

A lot of land clearing companies rent whatever the equipment yard has that week. We own purpose-built forestry machines and match them to your terrain. Not sure which machine your property needs? Try our cost calculator for an instant answer.
Our high horsepower dedicated mulchers run 300+ HP and chew through heavy cedar and mesquite at a pace no skid steer can match. That is how big tracts get cleared in days instead of weeks. We bring these machines when your material runs bigger than 8 inches in diameter and the property has access for an 11 foot wide machine.
For material up to 8 inches in diameter, our skid steer mulchers fill the gap. Subdivision lots, tree preservation, tight fence lines, and finish work around structures, they get in where the big machines cannot. Low ground pressure protects your topsoil, and they clear selectively around the oaks you want to keep.
The photos on this page come from recent cedar and brush clearing on ranch ground in the Cross Timbers country north of Cisco, the same oak savannah, the same brush mix, and the same machines we bring down I-20. Whether it is a full pasture reclamation or hunting lanes ahead of season, this is what the finish looks like.

Send photos and property details for a fast quote, or meet us on-site and we will walk it with you. Either way you get a firm number, free.
Our crew and machines do the work, selectively and cleanly. The mulch stays right where it falls, protecting the soil and feeding the grass. No burn piles, and no haul off needed.
You get open ground, clean sightlines, and land you can actually use again. If your project calls for full site prep, we handle that too.
Every ranch is different, so price comes down to a few things: how many acres, how thick the mesquite and cedar are, what stays, and access. Transport to Eastland County is built into the quote up front, so the number you get is the number you pay.
Most companies make you chase a number. Here is ours. The machine we bring depends on the size of your material and the access on your property.
Plus transport to your site
Transport included
Day rates help you budget. When you send photos or have us walk the property, you get a firm total for the whole job, free either way. For a deeper breakdown, read our guide on what it costs to clear land in Texas.
Satisfied well beyond expectations! Taylor came in with a very competitive bid and prompt scheduling and was readily available for unforeseen last minute details. He also answered all phone calls and returned emails almost immediately.

Absolutely outstanding quality work by Pierce Land Clearing. Two days into the clearing the operator became ill and with no delays a new operator was dispatched to complete the job on schedule. Without a doubt, would use them again.

Absolutely the best service you could ask for. When Bobby said he would be at our property every day at 0700 and work from 0730 to 1530 he meant it. He was here every day 5 minutes early.

Out in Eastland County, clearing brush on your own ranch needs no permit, and agricultural land work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside Cisco city limits the usual considerations are floodplain near Sandy Creek and utility easements. We flag anything that needs attention when we quote the job.
Estimates usually happen within a few days of your call. Most residential jobs run one to three days on site, and larger acreage moves at several acres a day with the dedicated mulchers. One local quirk: the Blackland clay east of I-35 gets greasy after rain, so we watch the weather and schedule around it rather than tearing up your ground. You get a start window with your quote and a heads up before we roll in.
Skid steer mulchers run $3,000 per day with transport included, for material up to 8 inches in diameter. High horsepower dedicated mulchers run $4,000 per day plus transport, for heavy brush and big acreage. Eastland County work is ranch scale, where the big machines make the most sense per acre. Send photos and acreage for a real number, usually the same day.
We do. Our crews run the whole state from our Austin yard, and the ranch country along the I-20 corridor is a regular run. Transport is part of the quote up front, and because we quote from photos, you will have a number before we ever make the drive.
Mesquite is the Eastland County brush problem, and how we clear it matters because it resprouts from the root. Mulching is fast and economical and sets it back years. Grubbing the root crown slows regrowth much more. We will tell you straight which fits your ground and budget.
Yes. A lot of Cisco country earns its keep in deer leases and hunting land, and we cut lanes, clear shooting windows, open food plot ground, and prep blind and feeder pads laid out the way you want them.
With mulching, nothing needs to leave your property. Everything grinds into a mulch layer that protects the soil, holds moisture, and feeds the grass as it breaks down. There are no brush piles to burn and no haul off trucks to pay for, which is a big part of why mulching costs less than traditional clearing.
On open mesquite flats a dedicated mulcher covers 2 to 3 acres a day, sometimes more in light brush. Thick cedar in the breaks runs closer to 1.5 to 2.5. Skid steers average half to three quarters of an acre. Big Eastland County jobs almost always get the big machines.
That is usually the point. Mesquite and cedar steal water and ground from grass, and clearing them puts pasture back into production. The mulch layer feeds the soil as it breaks down instead of leaving bare dirt to bake.
Yes. Photos, an aerial screenshot, or onX pins with the areas marked will get most Eastland County quotes done without a windshield visit. Mark what goes and what stays and we will price it, and for bigger ranches we are glad to come walk the ground.
