How it works

From walk-through to open ground.

  1. [PROJECT PHOTO: flagged trees on a walk-through]
    01

    Walk and flag

    We walk the property with you and flag the trees and plants that stay. You get one price for the area.

  2. [PROJECT PHOTO: forestry mulcher working]
    02

    Mulch in place

    The mulcher grinds brush and small trees down to the ground and spreads the chips as it goes. [CONFIRM: machine and max tree size]

  3. Logs stacked beside a cleared area
    03

    Bigger trees and stumps

    Larger trees come down with the grapple saw. On building sites we pull or grind stumps and call PA 811 first. [CONFIRM]

  4. Graded ground ready for seed
    04

    Keep it clear

    Seed, grade or a follow-up visit so the brush does not take it back. [CONFIRM: follow-up offered]

Why mulching

Cleaner, faster, easier on the ground.

  • No burn piles, no hauling Everything is ground on site, so there are no piles to burn and no truckloads to haul away.
  • Soil stays put The mulch layer covers the ground and holds the soil, instead of the bare dirt left by bulldozing.
  • A plan for regrowth Honeysuckle, multiflora rose and tree-of-heaven resprout from the roots. Penn State Extension recommends follow-up treatment, and we tell you the plan.
  • PA 811 before we dig Mulching stays at the surface. If the job needs stumps pulled or grading, we place the One Call first. [CONFIRM]
  • Fully insured Certificate of insurance on request. [Insurance details]

Questions

Forestry mulching questions.

Something else? Call the shop at 717-743-5871.

What size trees can you mulch?

Brush, vines and small trees go through the mulcher. Bigger trees come down with the grapple saw first. [CONFIRM: max diameter]

What happens to the mulch?

It stays on the ground as a layer that holds the soil and breaks down over time.

Are stumps removed?

Mulching leaves stumps at or near ground level. If you are building, we pull or grind them and grade the site.

Will the brush grow back?

Invasive shrubs and tree-of-heaven will try. Mowing, seeding or a follow-up treatment keeps the ground open.

How is it priced?

By the area and how thick it is, the size of the trees and the slope. We walk it and give you one written price. Estimates are free.
