CLEARING
Pierce Land Clearing works Corsicana and Navarro County, where the blackland prairie runs out into the post oak country heading east. That transition is the whole story here: two kinds of ground on the same place, often on the same tract, and they do not clear the same way.

Navarro County sits where the Blackland Prairie starts breaking up into the post oak country to the east, and Corsicana is close enough to the seam that we see both kinds of ground in the same week. West and north of town, toward Blooming Grove and Frost, it is open blackland: mesquite and elm in the fence rows, huisache in the low spots, and pasture that has been quietly shrinking since the last owner stopped bush hogging. East toward Kerens and the Richland Chambers side, the soil turns sandier and the cover goes to post oak, yaupon and greenbriar, which is thicker to get through and slower per acre.
Most of what we do here is pasture reclamation, taking grazing ground back from brush that got a ten year head start, and fence line clearing so a new wire can run straight. Oil field and lease road work runs alongside it.

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.

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 place is different, so the number comes down to acreage, how thick the mesquite, elm and yaupon has gotten, what you want left standing, and how the machines get through your gates. Transport to Navarro County is built into the quote up front, so the number you are given 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.

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.

On rural Navarro County land you own, clearing generally needs no permit and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside Corsicana city limits, clearing tied to a build runs through normal permitting.
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 here gets greasy after rain, so we watch the forecast 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.
Priced by the machine day. A high horsepower mulcher is $4,000 per day plus transport, a skid steer mulcher is $3,000 per day with transport included, and dozer or excavator work is $3,000 per day plus transport. One day minimum on every machine. Most fence row and field edge work around Corsicana is one or two days.
Yes, and on Navarro County farm ground it is most of what we do. mesquite, elm and yaupon grown through the wire, taken back to a clean line you can build on and see along. Clear before you fence rather than after; a line cut through standing brush costs more and comes out crooked.
Blackland clay is the reason we ask. Working saturated ground tears ruts that outlast the job and does not clear any faster. If your place is soaked we will tell you to wait rather than take a deposit and make a mess of it.
From the crown, yes, if it is only mulched. Mesquite resprouts from below the soil line, so on ground you want back in production the crown has to come out, which is dozer or excavator work rather than a mulching head. We will tell you which your ground needs.
Yes. Old push piles grind faster than standing timber because the material is already down, and it saves you a burn permit and a weather window. Nothing gets hauled off.
On rural Navarro County land you own, generally no, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside the city limit, clearing tied to a build goes through normal permitting. Check before you clear inside a limit.
It is mulched in place and left as a layer on the soil, which holds ground through a hard rain and slows what tries to come back. No hauling, no burning, no disposal fees.
It can, depending on what you change the ground to. Clearing brush back to grazeable pasture usually supports the exemption rather than threatening it, but a call to the Navarro County appraisal district before you change land use is worth the ten minutes.
