Brush mulching in Hinesville, GA

Brush mulching is forestry mulching for lighter growth: briars, palmetto, wax myrtle and saplings on lots, fence lines and field edges. Same machine, faster pace, same clean result.

01Forestry Mulching

Where brush mulching makes sense

Fence lines that have grown shut, the edges of a pasture, a homesite that has gone a few seasons without attention, and the strip along a driveway or ditch. Brush mulching takes it back to ground cover without tearing up the soil the way a bucket or a blade would.

If the growth has gotten into small trees, the job becomes forestry mulching. Derrick will tell you which it is after the walk-through, and the price reflects the work, not the label.

Questions about brush mulching

How is brush mulching different from bush hogging?

Bush hogging mows grass and light brush with a rotary cutter. Brush mulching grinds woody growth, briars and saplings that a brush hog would bounce off. If it has stems thicker than your thumb, it is a mulching job.

Will the brush grow back?

Some regrowth is normal, but the mulch layer slows it down a lot. A yearly bush hogging pass keeps a mulched area open.
