CLEARING
Pierce Land Clearing works Walnut Springs and the Bosque County ranch country along the Nolan and Bosque rivers. Cedar has taken a lot of this ground, and most of what we do here is getting it back off the pasture and out from under the oaks without tearing up thin soil. Honest day rates and a real machine.

Land clearing in Walnut Springs, Texas is Bosque County ranch work on shallow ground. Cedar has taken pasture and crowded the oaks, and most places here need selective clearing rather than a clear cut.
Around Walnut Springs, Morgan, Meridian and Cranfills Gap we handle cedar removal and selective clearing, pasture reclamation, fence row clearing, homesite and barn pad prep, ranch road corridors, and grinding piles left waiting on a burn day. Priced by the machine day, transport shown on the quote.

Every place is different, so the number comes down to acreage, how thick the cedar, live oak and mesquite has gotten, what you want left standing, and how the machines get through your gates. Transport to Bosque 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.

We live on 12 acres off 1431. When we purchased our property we absolutely fell in love with the amazing views of the Hill Country but were strapped with inheriting tons of cedars, a few pitiful oaks, and lots of debris.

Rural Bosque County clearing on your own land needs no permit, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside Walnut Springs 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: rock, not mud, sets the pace here. Limestone sits close to grade, so we plan around what is under the topsoil more than around the forecast. 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 Walnut Springs are one or two days.
Yes, and around Walnut Springs that is most of the work. The mulching head goes tree by tree, so juniper comes out from under and around the live oaks and post oaks while the good trees stay standing. Mark what you want kept before we start and the operator works to it.
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 it is the most common job we run in Bosque County. Cedar takes grazing ground slowly and then all at once. The mulch layer left behind holds thin soil through a hard rain, which matters more on this ground than it does out on the deep dirt.
On rural Bosque County land you own, generally no, and agricultural work is exempt from most regulation in Texas. Inside the Walnut Springs 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 comes back is seedlings out of the seed bank and off neighbouring ground, which is a mowing and maintenance question, not a reclearing one. Keep after the small stuff and the job holds for years.
Less of a problem here than out on the blackland. The rocky ground around Walnut Springs drains fast and we can usually work it within a day or two of rain. Low ground and creek bottoms are the exception and we will say so when we walk it.
Yes, along with the rest of Bosque 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.
