Brush clearing & brush hogging in Waco
Overgrown acreage, pasture, fence lines and cedar knocked back with a shredder or skid steer. Walk your property again instead of guessing what's out there.
From "can't see the fence" to mowable
Central Texas grows back fast. Leave a pasture or a back lot alone for a couple of seasons and you've got waist-high weeds, mesquite sprouts, cedar coming in along the fence line and no way to see what's underneath. A lawn mower won't touch it. That's brush hogging work.
Open ground gets the shredder. The thick stuff gets the skid steer: cedar, mesquite, heavy brush, and areas where a tractor can't turn. Between the two, we can take a property from overgrown to walkable in a day or two, and either leave the chips as ground cover or rake and haul everything off.
Common jobs around McLennan County: getting a pasture back for cattle or hay, clearing a fence line so it can be repaired, opening up a homesite on raw acreage, knocking back a few acres before a sale, and keeping rights-of-way and drainage clear.

How brush clearing is priced
Three things set the number: how many acres, how thick it is, and what you want done with the cuttings. Nothing else.
Tall grass, weeds and light brush on ground a tractor can drive. The fastest, cheapest cut.
Cedar, mesquite, thick brush and small trees ground down in place. Slower, more machine.
Leave the mulch, rake into burn piles, or haul everything off. Priced as an add-on so you choose.
Brush hogging questions
What's the difference between brush hogging and mulching?
Brush hogging (shredding) is a heavy rotary cutter that knocks down tall grass, weeds and light brush and leaves it on the ground to break down. Skid steer clearing knocks down and grinds heavier brush and small trees in place. We'll recommend whichever fits your property and budget.
How big of brush can you cut?
The shredder handles grass, weeds, saplings and brush up to a couple of inches thick. The skid steer takes on heavier brush, cedar and small trees. Bigger trees get cut and hauled separately.
How is brush hogging priced?
By the acre for open pasture and lots, or by the job for fence lines and tight areas. Density matters: thick cedar costs more than tall grass. Send us the acreage and a couple of photos and you'll get a firm number.
Do you haul the brush off or leave it?
Your call. Shredded material can stay as ground cover, get raked into burn piles, or be hauled off entirely. Each option is priced separately so you only pay for what you want.
Can you get through a locked gate or rough ground?
Tell us about access in the quote form. We bring the equipment on a trailer and need a gate wide enough to get through. Wet ground can push the date back a few days.
Tell us the scope. We'll send a number.
The more you tell us, the tighter the price. Austin replies fast, usually the same day, by whichever way you pick below.
