Forestry Mulching & Land Clearing Services
Clear your property with a single machine. Our forestry mulcher grinds standing trees, brush, and stumps into nutrient-rich ground cover — no hauling, no burning, no mess. Serving Kirkland, Bellevue, Redmond, and the greater Eastside.
What is Forestry Mulching & Land Clearing?
Forestry mulching and land clearing is a single-machine operation that cuts, grinds, and clears trees, brush, stumps, and vegetation in one pass. Unlike traditional clearing methods that require bulldozers, chainsaws, hauling trucks, and burn piles, a forestry mulcher does it all. The mulched material stays on-site as a natural ground cover layer that prevents erosion, retains moisture, and enriches the soil.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does forestry mulching and land clearing cost?
Costs vary based on acreage, vegetation density, terrain, and accessibility. Most residential projects in the Kirkland, Bellevue, and Eastside area range from $1,500 to $5,000 per acre. We provide free on-site estimates with transparent pricing and no hidden fees.
How long does forestry mulching and land clearing take?
Most residential lots (1-3 acres) can be cleared in 1-2 days using our forestry mulching equipment. Larger or heavily wooded properties may take longer. We'll provide a detailed timeline estimate during your free on-site assessment.
What happens to the trees and debris after clearing?
With forestry mulching, all vegetation is ground into natural mulch right on-site. This mulch layer prevents erosion, retains moisture, and returns nutrients to the soil. There is no hauling, burning, or off-site disposal needed.
What size trees can the forestry mulcher handle?
Our forestry mulching equipment can handle trees up to 8-12 inches in diameter, along with brush, stumps, and dense undergrowth. Larger trees may need to be felled first before mulching the remaining stump and debris.
