CLEAR WITH A PURPOSE

Turn Dense Growth Into Usable Ground

Forestry mulching processes unwanted vegetation on site and gives landowners a selective way to reclaim access, visibility, and usable acreage.

Selective clearing

Identify the oaks, buffers, and property features to preserve before work begins.

On-site processing

Trees and brush are mulched on the property instead of becoming a separate burn pile.

Year-round planning

Mulching is not dependent on a burn plan, though scheduling still depends on ground conditions.

Land with a next use

Prepare areas for a homesite, pasture, trails, fence access, hunting visibility, or future improvements.

WHAT THE WORK CAN INCLUDE

Forestry Mulching for Brush, Cedar, and Understory

The final approach depends on density, terrain, access, and what you want the property to become.

  • Cedar and dense brush reduction
  • Understory clearing around trees selected to remain
  • Selective clearing for homesites, trails, fence lines, and access routes
  • Mulching on ranch, recreational, and residential acreage
  • Detail work in areas that require smaller equipment or hand clearing

I don’t write reviews often, but Crosscut absolutely earned this one. They completed both mulching and hand-clearing work on my 7-acre property in Blanco, and the transformation is incredible. From our first conversation, it was obvious they knew what they were doing. They took the time to understand my goals, communicated throughout the project, and treated my property with care and respect. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and work ethic were outstanding. The end result exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier. If you’re looking for a company that does quality work, shows up, and truly takes pride in what they do, I highly recommend Crosscut. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

We had Julio clean up a new fence line, 1/2 mile long, and clear an area about 2 acres where our house is to be build. He also did a partial clearing on a couple of acres behind the house, just took out the low brush and left the larger trees. He did an excellent job. The property looks totally different cleaned up.

Julio and his team were very efficient and did an excellent job of making the property look beautiful. We had limbs all over the place from trees that had falling down. The crew was very professional and took care of everything we had requested in a timely manner. They kept us informed of their progress and how much time was left. We will definitely recommend your company and the crew to everyone we meet. Please let your crew know how much we appreciate their hard work and for beautifying our country home.

At this point I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve utilized the expertise of Jordan, Christian and Blakely to assist with land management at my ranch. From numerous phases of selective vegetation clearing to strategic trenching for oak wilt magement and most recently some meticulously selective clearing to enhance the view from our living area window. This time I must brag specifically about Julio who has been hands on from our very first project..he took the time to come in and look out the window with me multiple times to determine exactly which sections of vegetation to remove and which to keep, offering valuable insight and remembering exactly what we spoke about while personally running the machinery throughout the day. The result was phenomenal, per usual. The real distinction with everyone I’ve come in contact with from Crosscut is the apparent passion for their craft and for the habitats they enrich. Every move they make is done so with purpose and precision. If you’re in need of any land management assistance you literally won’t find a better group of guys to work with.

This is my first time hiring someone for land clearing. I searched high and low and got multiple offers. Crosscut had competitive prices and offered a beast of a machine. Julio is a master operator. He paid special attention to my wants and needs and followed all of my instructions to the T. I’m very satisfied and even referred them to one of my neighbors that stopped by for a bit to see some of the land clearing.

We coordinated with Christian and his team to purchase some Western Red Cedar logs for our porch and balcony posts on our new home. The team at Crosscut was very accommodating and their pricing was very reasonable. When I picked the beams up, Christian and Jordan helped load them and gave us a great recommendation for a local place to eat lunch on our way out. They're a great team that I recommend without reservation.

I am very glad I signed up with Cross Cut. I saw their advertisement on Highway 71, and saw how clean their work is. The operator for the equipment on my site named Julio is very experienced with over 25 years in the field clearing even the most complex forestry jobs. He was extremely careful around my mature pine trees while making roads through the forest, clearing brush, cleaning out hunting sites for visibility and even a beautiful circular home plot site. I would highly recommend Cross Cut over other clearing options in Central Texas because of their attention to detail and eye for aesthetics when land shaping while clearing and mulching. I am a very particular person, but Julio was truly able to make my dream become a reality I belive because he was a great listener to my overall plan. I was also very impressed with the chainsaw work of ground crew, the trees I wanted shaped look amazing.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS

Frequently Asked Questions

Project details vary by property. These answers explain what to expect before the owner-led site visit.

How is forestry mulching priced?

Pricing depends on acreage, vegetation density, terrain, access, and the intended finish. An owner walks the property before the free estimate is prepared.

Can you leave selected trees?

Yes. During the walkthrough, identify the trees, buffers, and site features that should remain so the clearing plan reflects those priorities.

Is material hauled away?

Forestry mulching processes targeted trees and brush into mulch on site. If your project needs a different cleanup approach, discuss that during the property walk.

When can work be scheduled?

Scheduling depends on current availability, property access, and ground conditions. Share your preferred timeline in the estimate request.

Can you evaluate a larger acreage project?

Yes. Include the total acreage, the portion needing work, vegetation density, intended use, and access constraints so the team can evaluate fit.
