Land clearing in Jonesboro, Texas is ranch work in the most literal sense: cedar off the ridges, brush off the fence lines, storm damage off the pastures, and the ground handed back to grass and cattle. Our high horsepower dedicated mulchers handle the old breaks, the skid steer mulchers handle the tight work, and everything grinds in place into a mulch layer that holds the Cut Plain soil.
Around Jonesboro and the Coryell-Hamilton line we handle cedar removal and pasture reclamation, storm damage cleanup, fence line and right of way clearing, hunting lane cutting, and brush work around tanks and pens. There are no burn piles waiting on a burn ban, and haul off is generally not needed with mulching.
Pricing is straightforward. Skid steer mulchers run $3,000 per day with transport included. High horsepower dedicated mulchers run $4,000 per day plus transport. Photos or onX pins get most Jonesboro quotes done the same day. 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 our storm damage and tree mulching work on ranch ground in this same stretch of Central Texas, and the project carousel below leads with our written up 6 acre forestry mulching job in Morgan, plus the 15 acre Hico cedar clear one county west. This country is the middle of our service map, not the edge of it.

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 price comes down to a few things: acreage, how old the cedar is, what stays, and access. We quote the whole job 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.
We cannot say enough good about the incredible service we received. We have 30 acres we are preparing for our future home that has never been lived on or maintained. Bobby listened to our vision.

Cleared lots of cedars for trails for us on our 14 acres. Cannot wait to have them come back with the machine for rock pulverizing on the rock trails.

I would highly recommend Pierce Land Clearing. I mentioned to Bobby, our operator, that he was an artist. He took an overgrown piece of land and turned it into a beautiful landscape. He saw my vision and made it happen.

Jonesboro is unincorporated ranch country, and there is no permit office between you and clearing your own cedar. The considerations that come up are floodplain along the Leon head draws and county road rules about mud and gravel. 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 old cedar and bigger ranch acreage. Send photos or onX pins and you will usually have a number the same day.
That is the daily work in this corner of Coryell County. The high horsepower mulchers grind old cedar where it stands, ridges and draws included, and the ground goes back to grass under the mulch instead of baking bare. Our documented 15 acre cedar clear in Hico is one county over, linked below.
Yes, and the photos on this page show exactly that: lightning struck and downed trees ground where they lay on ranch ground in this same country. One machine, one pass, and the mess becomes a mulch layer instead of a season of chainsaw weekends.
Yes. Mature cedar drinks year round and intercepts rain before it reaches the soil. Clear a draw and the seeps come back, the tank holds longer, and the grass takes the ridge again. On the Cut Plain it is the highest return work a place can buy.
With mulching, nothing needs to leave your property. Everything grinds into a mulch layer that protects the soil and feeds the grass as it breaks down. There are no brush piles waiting on a burn ban, and haul off is generally not needed.
Constantly. Cedar and brush ground off both sides of the wire, hunting lanes and senderos cut through the breaks, and clean corridors that double as firebreaks in dry years.
Jonesboro sits between Gatesville and Hamilton on country we cross every week. Most jobs get on the calendar within a couple of weeks.
Yes. Photos, an aerial screenshot, or onX pins with the areas marked will get most Jonesboro quotes done the same day. Mention gates and crossings and we will plan the machines accordingly.
