Forestry mulching, land clearing and site work across Central Florida. We run our own machines, publish our rates, and quote most jobs from photos the same day.
Nine services across residential lots, acreage, homesite prep and small commercial site work. Every one quoted against the same published rates.
Grinds standing trees up to 8 inches across, plus everything under them, and leaves a clean mulch layer. Nothing hauled, nothing burned.
Full removal down to bare soil for building, compaction and site development.
New shell, base and millings driveways, plus restoration of washed-out or rutted driveways that already exist.
Compacted, shaped pads for homes, barns, garages and sheds, cut to the elevation you need.
Rough and finish grading to move water away from structures and level ground for what comes next.
Trenching, digging and dirt work on residential lots, with the mini excavator where the loader can’t reach.
Retaining walls that hold grade, square up a yard and stop erosion. Get the use of your whole yard back.
Overgrown lots and fence lines knocked back so the property is walkable and maintainable again.
Clearing, grading, drainage and access handled as one job so the lot is ready to build on.
We walk your property with you whenever we can, and there are no surprises when the invoice lands.
Text or email a few shots with rough acreage. Corners, the thickest part, and where we get in. That’s enough for a number.
Whenever we can, Dewey walks the property with you. Photos miss things, and plenty of folks aren’t sure yet what they want. Talking it out on the ground sorts both.
Usually one to three weeks out. Most residential jobs run one to three days start to finish.
We don’t leave until you’ve seen it and you’re happy with it. The price doesn’t move from what we quoted.
The question we get more than any other, and picking wrong costs real money. Here’s the honest breakdown.
Most outfits in this market won’t publish a number. Here are ours. Density drives the price far more than acreage does.
| How thick is it? | Mulching / acre | Clearing / acre |
|---|---|---|
Light Palmetto and scattered saplings under 4" DBH | $1,200–2,500 | $1,500–3,000 |
Moderate Mixed brush and pine, 4–6" DBH | $2,500–3,500 | $3,000–6,000 |
Heavy Dense oak hammock, 6–8" DBH | $3,500–4,500 | $6,000–10,000 |
National cost sites quote $1,000–$2,500 a day for a skid steer mulcher. Real Florida operators start around $3,000 with transport.
The gap is real. Trip distance, palmetto root mass and soft ground all cost more here than a national average assumes.
If a quote you’ve been given looks far cheaper than this page, ask what’s excluded.
Every machine on this list is ours. No rental markup on your invoice, no waiting on availability, and no subcontractor pulling up in a truck you’ve never seen.
Five counties inside a sixty-mile radius of Titusville. Each town has its own page with local ground conditions and what the work costs there.

Mulching runs one machine that grinds everything where it stands and leaves the chips down as ground cover. Nothing gets hauled, nothing gets burned, and the root mass stays put. Land clearing pulls the roots out and leaves bare soil plus debris to deal with. Simple version: mulch if you want the land usable and maintained, clear and grub if you’re putting a foundation on it.
Light brush and palmetto runs $1,200 to $2,500 an acre mulched. Moderate mixed growth is $2,500 to $3,500. Heavy oak hammock with trunks up to 8 inches runs $3,500 to $4,500. Full clearing down to bare soil is roughly double. Density matters far more than total acreage. Ten acres of palmetto is a quicker job than two acres of hammock.
No, and anyone who tells you it’ll is setting you up for a second invoice. Saw palmetto regrows from the root mass and mulching leaves that intact. For most properties that’s fine. You’ll want a maintenance pass every two to four years. If you need them gone permanently, that’s a grubbing job and we’ll quote it as one.
Not to give you a number. Photos of the corners, the thickest part and your access point, plus rough acreage, are enough for a firm range the same day. But Dewey walks the property with you whenever he can, and he’d rather. Two reasons. Photos don’t show everything, and a hidden waterway or a soft corner changes the job. And plenty of people aren’t certain yet what they actually want done. Standing on the ground talking it through, he can see what you’re picturing and tell you what it takes to get there.
Yes. A lot of our work is exactly that. New shell driveways, restoring driveways that have washed out or rutted, compacted pads for homes, barns and sheds, grading to move water away from a structure, and timber retaining walls where a yard needs a grade change held. Most of it gets quoted the same way clearing does.
Scheduling generally runs one to three weeks depending on season, and most residential jobs take one to three days once we’re on site. Storm cleanup jumps the line.
Most quotes come back the same day. No deposit on mulching or site work, and the price we agree on is the price you pay.
