How It Works

Our 6-Step Clearing Process

From first call to final walkthrough, we handle every detail so you don’t have to.

01
Site Assessment

We evaluate tree size, density, terrain slope, and ground conditions.

Machine Selection

We select the appropriate mulcher size and carrier (tracked machine) for your terrain.

03
Systematic Mulching

The mulcher processes trees and brush in methodical passes, top-to-bottom.

Mulch Management

Resulting mulch is spread evenly at 2–4 inch depth, or raked into windrows if desired.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How large of trees can forestry mulching handle?

We mulch trees up to 18” diameter. Bigger trees are cut first, then stumps and debris are fully mulched.

No, mulch is safe organic material. It breaks down in 12–24 months, improving soil and controlling erosion.

Yes, tracked mulchers handle slopes up to 35°, ideal for steep Portland terrain, safe and efficient.

Forestry mulching is a method of land clearing — it uses a single machine to cut, grind, and spread vegetation in one pass. Traditional land clearing involves separate felling, piling, burning or hauling steps. Mulching is faster and cheaper for most applications.
