We do land clearing in Leland, North Carolina, on lots that grew over while the town built up around them. Leland sits in Brunswick County, west of the Brunswick River and about five miles from Wilmington. The town held about 13,500 people in 2010 and about 22,900 by 2020, and it kept climbing. New homes fill Brunswick Forest and Mallory Creek Plantation while older parcels around Leland sit under heavy brush. Our machine is a Bobcat T300 compact track loader with a forestry mulcher head. It grinds brush, vines, saplings, and small trees into mulch that stays on the ground. Nothing burns in a pile, and nothing leaves your property on a trailer.
Two jobs cover most of what Leland property owners ask about. Lot clearing opens up a building site on a parcel that has sat idle. Brush clearing takes down the thick growth on ground that got away from you. Forestry mulching is how both get done, since the head cuts and grinds in one pass. The mulch lands in a layer that helps hold loose soil in place. You can clear a lot down to open ground, or thin it and keep the bigger pines. We work out of Longs, South Carolina, and Leland sits at the north edge of our area. Call (843) 385-1090 for a free estimate on your property.

Leland grew fast, and the map filled in unevenly. A new street goes in off US 17, and the parcel behind it stays in brush. Years of that leave a lot full of vines, briars, scrub pine, and hardwood saplings. Lot clearing is the fix when you plan to build or sell. The mulcher takes it down to a flat, mulched surface you can cross on foot. You can finally see the property corners and how the ground drains.
Access matters more here than raw acreage. The T300 is a compact track loader, so it fits through a gate and between houses. It spreads its weight on tracks instead of digging ruts with tires. That helps on the low, damp spots common near Sturgeon Creek and the Brunswick River. We stay off saturated ground and standing water, because a mulcher belongs on ground that holds. Wetter parcels often clear better in a dry stretch.
Burning is a problem on a small lot with houses on both sides. Hauling is slow, and every load means another trailer trip off your property. Brush clearing with a mulcher skips both. The growth goes through the head and lands on the ground as chips. The chips settle into a layer that breaks down over the seasons. Nothing sits in a pile waiting on a burn day or a dump run.
Growth here comes back fast in a warm, wet coastal climate. Ground you clear in spring will show new green by late summer. Mulching leaves the surface flat, which makes the next pass easier. Once a lot is open, keeping it open takes far less machine time. If you want the bigger pines left standing, say so before we start. We can thin the understory and leave the canopy trees in place.
