Most of our Palmer work is on small ranches and new-build acreage. Whether it is a homesite, a hunting tract or pasture you want back, the approach is the same: grind what is standing, leave what you want, and put a mulch layer down instead of bare dirt.
Around Palmer most of what we take out is mesquite, cedar and honey locust. Mesquite and cedar come back from the root, so expect a follow-up pass on the heaviest ground inside two to three years.
On black clay we watch the weather closely. Mulching on saturated prairie soil tears up ground, so wet-season work gets scheduled around it.
Thick brush and small trees ground down in place. Sight lines back, walkable ground back, no debris pile left behind.
Pad, driveway and septic area cleared for a build while the trees worth keeping stay standing.
A clean lane down the fence row across Ellis County so you can see your wire and keep brush off it.
Take grazing and hay ground back from the brush line that has been creeping in a few feet a year.
Lease roads, ranch trails and walking paths cut wide enough for a truck and trailer to use.
Shooting lanes, browse at deer height and sunlight to the ground for food plots on Ellis County tracts.

Density drives cost more than acreage does. We look at stem size, how thick the understory is, slope, and how a trailer gets in. Then you get a firm number.
The mulching head grinds standing brush and small trees where they stand. No burn piles, no dump trailers, no gate ruts from hauling debris out.
You look it over while the machine is still on site. If a spot needs another pass, we make it then and there.

Yes. Palmer is about 38 miles from our base in Richland, and Ellis County is inside our regular service range. On smaller jobs we try to pair nearby properties in the same week so the trailer trip is not carried by one customer.
That is the normal request and the machine handles it well. The operator picks what stays as he works, so you keep your shade and your mature timber and lose the scrub.
No. Everything gets ground into a mulch layer that stays on the ground. That means no burn ban delays and no dump fees on your bill.
