Forestry mulching is commonly used in land management, typically for clearing dense vegetation, such as trees, shrubs, and brush. We utilize a CAT 265 skid steer with a drum mulching head, both of which are top of the line. Our machine uses a rotating drum equipped with heavy-duty carbide teeth. As the mulcher moves through vegetation, it grinds trees, branches, and other foliage into small chips or mulch. This process clears the land and creates a layer of natural mulch that helps with soil erosion control. Forestry mulching can also be used for creating fire breaks, maintaining trails, clearing fence lines or preparing land for construction or agricultural purposes.

One major advantage of mulching is it eliminates the need to haul away debris, thus saving you time and money! This service is priced by the hour and the cost varies according to terrain, density, and type of vegetation needing mulched.

Wildfire mitigation refers to the strategies and actions taken to reduce the risk and impact of wildfires, particularly in areas with dense undergrowth and large amounts of blowdown. The goal is to prevent fires from starting, slow their spread, and minimize damage to properties, natural resources, and communities.

Creating defensible space around homes and properties is one of the most effective ways to mitigate wildfire risks. This involves creating buffer zones where vegetation is managed and reduced to create a defensible area for firefighting efforts.

Wildfires rely on fuel—such as dry vegetation, trees, and other flammable materials—to spread. Fuel reduction focuses on removing or managing this vegetation to slow or stop the fire. We can do so by mulching or removing trees in overgrown areas to reduce density and create space between them to help prevent a wildfire from spreading quickly.

Our primary focus for land clearing is the process of preparing a plot of land for building by removing trees, shrubs, debris, and any other obstacles that may interfere with the construction. Whether you just need a plot of land bush hogged or large trees taken down and hauled off, we can help!

Grading with a skid steer involves using the machine's attachments to level, smooth, and shape the ground. A skid steer is versatile and compact, making it ideal for small to medium-sized grading tasks, especially in tight or confined spaces.
