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 post oak, cedar and mesquite has gotten, what you want left standing, and how the machines get through your gates. Transport to Wise 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.
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.

Pierce land was a pleasure to deal with and they do a great job. Don't make the mistake of hiring a skid steer to make a mess and then hiring the big boys (Pierce) to come clean it up. My place looks fantastic now!

These guys are as good as it gets. Professional, hard working, honest group. We ran into some issues that were completely out of anyone's control. Taylor promised to complete the job as soon as it is possible to do so in a safe manner. Looking forward to working with these guys again.

Rural Wise County clearing on your own land needs no permit, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside Runaway Bay 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: post oak sand works wet a good deal better than clay does, so we lose fewer days to rain here than crews do east of the Trinity. 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 Runaway Bay are one or two days.
Yes. One day is the minimum on every machine and most lots here finish inside it. If a neighbour or two wants the same work, mention it, because moving between adjacent lots costs almost nothing next to a second mobilisation.
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.
Yes, and we will hold the line rather than guess. Have your corners marked or flagged before we arrive. Material is mulched where it falls so nothing ends up next door, and the operator cleans the edges before he loads out.
On rural Wise County land you own, generally no, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside the Runaway Bay city limit, clearing tied to a build goes through normal permitting. Check before you clear inside the limit.
Cut cedar does not resprout from the stump the way mesquite does, so mulching it is a real fix rather than a delay. What returns is seedlings out of the seed bank and off neighbouring ground, which is a mowing question rather than a reclearing one. Keep after the small stuff and the job holds for years.
Less of a problem here than out on the blackland. Sandy ground around Runaway Bay drains fast and we can usually work within a day or two of rain. Creek bottoms and low ground are the exception and we will say so when we walk it.
Yes, along with the rest of Wise 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.
