Land clearing in Waxahachie, Texas rides the front edge of DFW’s southern growth: blackland tracts going under contract, homesite acreage selling to families chasing the courthouse-square life, and all of it brush-covered first. Our machines clear it at metro pace with county manners, everything ground in place, no burning, and the heritage pecans protected.
Around Waxahachie, Midlothian, Red Oak, and Ennis we handle development tract clearing, homesite and acreage clearing, mesquite and blackland brush removal, creek bottom cleanup, pasture reclamation, and fence line work on the farm roads. 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 Waxahachie quotes done the same day, from an in-town lot to a corridor 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 blackland clearing and pile work, and the carousel below leads with our written up selective homesite clear at Cleburne, forty minutes west, shade trees kept and everything else gone in a day. That is the finish Ellis County homesites get.

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 heavy the growth is, what stays, and access. Commercial projects get a firm written scope, 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.

Waxahachie’s development rules inside the city limits mostly touch builders and commercial projects, and the surrounding Ellis County cities each run their own light versions. Residential and ag land outside city limits clears without permits, and floodplain rules apply along Waxahachie and Chambers 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 heavy growth and larger tracts. Most Waxahachie lots run a day. Send photos or a site plan and you will usually have a real number the same day.
Yes. Waxahachie anchors the south end of our DFW loop with Dallas, Fort Worth, and Cleburne, and the surrounding pages on this site, Midlothian, Red Oak, Ennis, are all covered from the same rotation.
Blackland brush: mesquite anchored into old field edges, hackberry and elm thickets in the draws, bois d’arc along the old fence lines, and creek bottoms grown solid along Waxahachie and Chambers creeks. Mulching grinds it all and leaves the pecans and oaks standing.
Constantly. Ellis County is one of the fastest growing counties in Texas as DFW pushes south down 35E and 287, and we clear subdivision tracts, pad sites, and utility corridors on builder timelines with commercial insurance in place.
With mulching, nothing needs to leave the site. Everything grinds into a mulch layer that controls erosion until dirt work or grass takes over. There is no burning, which matters this close to the metro, and haul off is generally not needed.
Yes. Blackland pasture responds fast, grind the mesquite and brush, protect the deep soil under the mulch, and the grass takes it back the next season. With Ellis County land values climbing, reclaimed acres pay for themselves.
Waxahachie sits on our regular DFW south rotation. 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 Waxahachie quotes done the same day. Flag the pecans and oaks you want to keep and we will price around them.
