Forestry Mulching
We grind brush and small trees into mulch where they stand. A skid steer with a forestry mulching head does the work, and the mulch stays on the ground.

Burleson grew about 19 percent from 2020 to 2025, and new homes keep going up in subdivisions on open ground. Much of the city sits on Crosstell soil, which NRCS says is mostly in wooded pasture and old idle fields. City code requires grass and weeds on yards and vacant lots to stay under 12 inches. A lot grown up in brush and saplings needs a mulcher before a mower can touch it.
Clear Choice serves Burleson as part of a service area centered on Hillsboro, about 40 miles south on I-35W. We do the work with a skid steer fitted with a forestry mulching head. Forestry mulching turns brush and small trees into mulch that stays on the ground. Call or text (817) 937-1506 and tell us what needs clearing.

Burleson sits where two soil regions meet. Crosstell is an East Cross Timbers soil, with a few inches of fine sandy loam over clay. Ponder clay loam and Sanger clay, both Grand Prairie soils, are the next most common in the city. On Crosstell, NRCS rates runoff high on flat ground and very high on slopes.
Each soil carries its own trees and brush. NRCS lists post oak with a few mesquite on Crosstell, and scattered mesquite on Ponder. Sanger has scattered mesquite, elm and hackberry in some areas. In the creek bottoms, Pursley soils carry trees that are mainly elm, pecan and hackberry.
Brush clearing mulches the saplings and thickets that grow up on this ground. The mulch stays on the ground as a cover over the soil.
Burleson's Code Compliance Division enforces the city's high grass and weeds rule. Its page says high grass and weeds pose a fire hazard and harbor rodents and snakes. Anyone can report a lot through BTX311, the city's service request system.
Lot clearing mulches the brush and small trees so the lot is open ground again. From there, the lot can be mowed and kept under the 12-inch line.
On a lot you plan to build on, the builder does the dirt work after we clear. Before anyone digs, Texas law says to call 811 at least two business days ahead. Lines that serve only your own property are yours to point out.
FEMA has studied flood zones along Village Creek, Shannon Creek, Quil Miller Creek and Willow Creek inside the city. The city's floodplain page says FEMA has sent preliminary new flood maps for review. If a creek crosses your land, check the map before any work near the bank. A city project engineer answers questions about those maps.
Brush and saplings grow up along fences, where a mower cannot reach. Fence line clearing mulches a strip along the fence so it can be repaired or replaced. Inside the city, new fences and fence repairs or replacements need a permit from Building Permits and Inspections. The fence itself is the fence builder's job, and we clear the line first.
