The project

The Job

A landowner in Melissa called about acreage that had grown up with tall grass, weeds and light brush, past the point a lawn mower could handle and heading toward a clearing job if it was left another season.

The work

What We Did

We brought the tractor and rotary cutter out on the trailer and mowed the property down evenly in a single visit, knocking the grass, weeds and light brush back to a height the land could be walked and used at.

The lot was left clean, with the growth cut and nothing piled or left behind.

The Result

Open, evenly mowed acreage that looks like a lot again. A rotary cutter takes down saplings up to an inch or two in diameter; anything larger is a clearing job, and this property was caught before it got there.

Questions

Questions about this project

What's the difference between brush hog mowing and land clearing?

Brush hog mowing cuts grass, weeds, and light brush. Land clearing removes trees, stumps, and heavy brush with a dozer or excavator.

How overgrown can a lot be before it needs more than mowing?

A rotary cutter handles tall grass and small saplings. Established trees and thick woody brush require clearing equipment.

Why should vacant land be mowed regularly?

Many cities require it by ordinance. Regular mowing also keeps the property manageable and ready to build or sell.

Does brush hog mowing kill weeds?

No. It cuts them down and keeps them from seeding, but it doesn't kill the roots.

Can a brush hog cut small trees?

Most rotary cutters can take down saplings up to an inch or two in diameter. Anything larger is a clearing job.
