Fence Line & Trail Clearing in East Texas

Fence rows grow up fast

On East Texas ranch and acreage, fence lines are the first place brush takes hold. Birds drop seeds along the wire, and within a few years yaupon, privet, trumpet vine and saplings are pushing posts over and making repairs nearly impossible. Clearing a 10 to 20 foot strip along the fence makes it easy to inspect, repair or replace.

Other linear clearing jobs

• New fence routes before a fencing crew comes in
• ATV, hunting and walking trails
• Firebreaks around homes, barns and timber
• Access paths to ponds, deer stands or back pastures

Most of this work is done with a forestry mulcher, which leaves a smooth, drivable path. Pricing is often by the linear foot or by the hour rather than by the acre.
