Land clearing in Tabor City usually starts with a field that got away from you. Tabor City sits in Columbus County farm country, and this ground comes back fast. Two seasons off the mower, and briars and sweetgum saplings own the whole field. We run a Bobcat T300 with a forestry mulcher head. Tabor City is about 18 miles from our base in Longs, just over the state line. Your tract might be off US 701 or down NC 904 toward Fair Bluff. The work is the same either way. We grind the growth into mulch where it stands. No burn piles, and nothing to haul off. Call (843) 385-1090 for a free estimate.
Out here the problem is usually old farm ground. Fields sit unplanted for years, and fence lines thicken into a solid hedge. Pasture reclamation puts a grown-up field back to grass, so you can graze it or cut hay again. Bush hogging holds it there once the heavy growth is down. Fence line clearing opens the wire back up so you can see your posts. On a hunting tract, the mulcher cuts shooting lanes and opens a path back to a stand. Forestry mulching is how all of it gets done. The head chews the growth into chips that settle into the dirt.

Tabor City grew up on tobacco, and the first warehouse in town went up in 1909. Tobacco carried this area for most of the last century. Plenty of that ground is not in a row crop today. Left alone for a few years, an old field fills in with young pine and vines. Land clearing on ground like that is mostly a mulching job, because the trunks are still small.
The T300 rides on tracks, so it spreads its weight instead of digging in. That matters on Columbus County fields after a wet week in the spring. The growth comes down in place, and what is left behind is a flat layer of mulch. You keep your topsoil, and rain soaks in instead of running off. When we pull off, you can see the lay of the ground and the old field edges.
Fence lines go first on a place that sits idle for a season or two. Wire disappears into a hedge of briars and vines, and posts rot where you cannot see them. Fence line clearing mulches a clean strip down both sides of the wire, so the line is visible again. You get room to run a mower or a truck down the row. Cattle stay put when you can actually check the fence.
Sweet potatoes still matter here, and the North Carolina Yam Festival started in Tabor City in 1946. Ground that grew a crop can come back into use once the brush is off. Pasture reclamation usually takes two passes, and the first one takes down saplings and briars. Bush hogging keeps the regrowth low after that, while grass fills back in. An idle field will not make hay in one season, so get it started early.
