forestry mulching

Do you have a site or plot of land that needs clearing? CMS Tree Services are tree contractors that have forestry mulching equipment that can clear land quickly and effectively.

A forestry mulcher uses a rotary drum equipped with steel hammers to shred vegetation. CMS’s machine is powered by the pto (power take off) on the back of their tractor.

This heavy duty equipment can clear several acres of vegetation in a day, making it ideal for land clearing, footpath clearance, scrubland and paddock clearance and vegetation management.

Vegetation clearance, including saplings and brambles

By processing trees and other vegetation where they stand, mulching machines eliminate many of the steps involved in land clearing such as site prep, cutting/felling/hauling and site cleanup. This also eliminates the need for multiple machines such as excavators, tree shears, wood chippers or grinders and hauling equipment. Only one mulching machine is required, reducing time, cost, fuel requirements and emissions.

Mulching machines are capable of clearing land of unwanted trees and brash / vegetation with limited disturbance to soils. Traditional land clearing methods often present an increased risk of erosion by pushing over trees, uprooting the stump and roots, and substantially disturbing soils. In contrast, mulching the vegetation leaves the soil structure intact.

The mulched material can be left on the ground and will act as an erosion barrier while returning nutrients back into the soil through decomposition.
