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.

Rural Navarro County clearing on your own land needs no permit, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside Cross Timber city limits, clearing tied to a build runs through the normal permitting process. If your place carries an agricultural exemption, keeping it is worth a call to the county appraisal district before you change how the ground is used.
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 jobs around Cross Timber are one or two days.
Yes, and on the sandy ground here that is the job worth doing. The mulching head works tree by tree so the understory, briar and volunteer growth come out while the post oaks and blackjacks stay. Mark what you want kept before we start.
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.
It changes the plan more than the rate. Sandy ground drains and works in most weather. The clay carries a machine when dry and not at all when wet. We walk it, tell you which parts are which, and schedule the clay side around the weather instead of tearing it up.
On rural Navarro County land you own, generally no, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside the Cross Timber city limit, clearing tied to a build goes through normal permitting. Check before you clear inside the limit.
From the crown, yes, if it is only mulched. Mesquite resprouts from below the soil line, so on ground you want back in production properly 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.
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 the deposit and make a mess.
Yes, along with the rest of Navarro County. Transport is a written line on the quote reflecting the distance.
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.
Every job we publish carries the acreage, the machines, the days on site and what it actually cost. 45 projects documented across Texas so far.
