What Customers Say About Working With Us

Rated 5 out of 5

We were extremely pleased with the results on the land clearing that was done to our property. I had called around to several other companies for bids and PLC was the most reasonable, responsive, and customer oriented.

Taylor was very professional from start to finish. Great to deal with and on time. Equipment was top notch. We had a few challenges to overcome and he tackled them head on instead of backing away. Only company I will call for future land clearing needs.

Taylor knows his business and was very respectful of our property. His 3 days of service advanced our land clearing plan beyond our expectation. We will have him back yearly to keep our brush management in check.

Permits in Richland

Rural Navarro County clearing on your own land needs no permit, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside Richland 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.

How Long Does It Take?

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.

Richland Land Clearing FAQs

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 Richland are one or two days.

Yes, but timing matters more than usual. We work it when it will carry a machine, which on this ground can mean waiting weeks rather than days after a wet spell. Clearing saturated bottomland tears ruts that channel water and make the next flood worse. If we need to wait we will tell you.

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.

Usually yes, within limits. Taking out the choked understory and the deadfall lets water move through instead of backing up behind it. What it will not do is change where the water goes. If the bottom holds because the ground is flat and the creek is full, clearing it will not fix that and we will say so rather than sell you the job.

On rural Navarro County land you own, generally no, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside the Richland 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.
