Land clearing in Manor, Texas moves at the speed of the east metro. Tracts go under contract, dirt crews get scheduled, and the clearing has to land on time, ground clean, no burning, and no debris convoy through the new neighborhoods. That is the work our machines are built for, and the Tesla corridor photo on this page is the proof it is our home ground.
Around Manor, Elgin, Del Valle, and the 130 corridor we handle development tract clearing, pad and laydown yard clearing, homesite and small acreage clearing, brush pile grinding, fence line work, and mesquite removal on the blackland. Everything grinds in place into mulch, 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, an aerial, or a site plan gets most Manor quotes done the same day, from a backyard lot to a full tract. 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 clearing work in the east Travis County corridor, including the Tesla factory ground, and the project carousel below leads with our written up 127 acre LCRA clear at Elgin, fifteen minutes up 290. Between Del Valle, Elgin, and Manor, this corridor holds more of our documented work than any other.

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 property is different, so price comes down to a few things: acreage, how solid the growth is, what stays, and access. Manor is a short run for us, 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.
They came out when they said they would and worked long days getting about 10 acres of mesquite cleared. It looks amazing now. Dillon is a hard worker and was able to advise on and execute a great strategy for attacking the project. I am very happy with the results.

Jonathon came out and did a great job. Had 8 to 10 large piles of brush that he was able to mulch in a couple of hours. He walked the property with me so I could point out more areas I wanted cleaned up.

Manor’s development rules inside the city limits mostly touch builders and commercial projects, and heritage tree protections follow the Austin metro pattern for larger hardwoods on development sites. Residential and ag land outside the city limits clears without permits. Floodplain rules apply along Wilbarger and Gilleland creeks. We flag exactly what applies when we quote your project.
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.
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 solid growth and bigger tracts. Most Manor lots run a day of skid steer work. Send photos or a site plan and you will usually have a real number the same day.
Yes, and the hero photo on this page is from exactly that ground. The factory pulled the whole east metro toward Manor and Del Valle, and we clear the tracts, laydown yards, and homesites that came with it, with commercial insurance in place and schedules kept.
That is the east Travis County job right now. Blackland tracts that grew mesquite and brush for fifty years are going under contract every month, and we clear them fence line to fence line ahead of the dirt work, grinding everything in place with no burning inside the metro.
With mulching, nothing needs to leave the site. Everything grinds into a mulch layer that controls erosion and keeps dust down until construction starts. Existing piles grind where they sit, like the ones photographed on this page, and haul off is generally not needed.
East of Austin the blackland runs to mesquite, hackberry, and brush thickets wherever the plow stopped, with cedar elm and oaks worth keeping scattered through it. Mulching takes the trash growth and leaves the keepers standing.
All the time. Manor’s new neighborhoods back up to county road acreage, and one to five acre homesites clear in a day. Transport is included in the skid steer day rate, so small jobs stay affordable.
Manor is fifteen minutes from our east metro routes through Del Valle and Elgin. Most jobs get on the calendar within a couple of weeks, and commercial timelines get scheduled to the day.
Yes. Photos, an aerial screenshot, or a site plan will get most Manor quotes done the same day. For tracts, mark the boundaries on the aerial and we will price against it.
