Forestry Mulching in Chandler, TX

Forestry Mulching in Chandler

Forestry mulching is the right tool for most of East Texas, and it is the machine I run every day around Tyler. A tracked skid steer with a mulching head drives through standing brush, yaupon, briars, saplings and trees up to a moderate diameter and grinds them into chips on the spot. Nothing gets stacked, burned or hauled. The chips lie on the ground as a mulch layer that holds the sandy Smith County soil together, keeps the sun off the dirt so the yaupon is slower coming back, and lets you walk the property the same day. It is how I open up overgrown acreage in Lindale and Mineola, thin the understory on wooded homesites in Flint and Whitehouse, take pasture back from sweetgum around Canton and Athens, and clear trails and fence lines on timber tracts out toward Gilmer and Kilgore. Because there is no burn pile and no dump fee, it is almost always the cheapest way per acre to turn a thicket back into land you can use.

Land clearing in Chandler

Chandler sits on Hwy 31 west of Tyler in Henderson County, at the north end of Lake Palestine where the Neches River comes in. It is a lake town and a commuter town at the same time: close enough to Tyler to drive in every day, far enough out that you can still buy acreage, and ringed by water on the south side. The land around Chandler is where the deep East Texas pine starts to give way to post oak and open sandy ground, so a tract here might be pine timber with yaupon on one end and post oak and briars on the other. I clear lake lots along the north shore and down FM 315 so owners can see the water, open homesites and drives on acreage off Hwy 31 toward Brownsboro, mulch understory on recreational tracts people bought for weekends, and take out the water oaks and sweetgums that spring storms leave leaning. Lake property is tight work: property lines are close, the shoreline has rules, and the shade trees are the point. A mulcher handles that where a dozer cannot. Pricing is by the acre or the job and set after I walk the land with you.
