What we do
Overgrown lots
Get a wooded or grown-up lot back to usable ground for building, a yard or resale.
Fence lines & property lines
Clear a strip for a new fence or survey, or open up a line that has grown in.
Trails, lanes & hunting land
Shooting lanes, food plots, ATV trails and access roads.
Under-brushing
Clear the brush and vines under the trees and keep the trees you want.
Ditches & drainage
Open up grown-in ditches so water moves again.
Lot prep before a build
Mulch first, then we can grade, hydroseed, build the driveway and haul what's left.

Why it's worth doing right
Forestry mulching uses a skid steer with a mulching head that grinds brush and small trees into a layer of mulch as it goes. Compared with cutting, piling and burning or hauling:
- Faster and usually cheaper: one machine, one pass, no debris to deal with.
- Easier on the ground: the mulch layer holds the soil in place and helps stop erosion.
- Selective: we can work around the trees you want to keep.
- Ready to use: the ground is left walkable and mowable, ready for the next step.

Reviews
What customers say
“Brian had his work cut out for him with our yard! We had removed 30+ pine trees from around the house and Brian dug out the roots, smoothed it all out and added tons of top soil. Now we’re ready for grass, thanks to Southern Hauling and Clearing!”
“Ryan with Southern Hauling and Clearing helped with some grading work, brush cutting, and hauling off some odds and ends things from our farm. Very reasonably priced and did a great job. Good communication as well. Would recommend”
“Five stars for Ryan at Southern Hauling and Clearing! He cleaned out my garage and cleared out the side of my property in Bolivia, NC. Prompt, professional, and left everything spotless. Highly recommend!”
