Amanda Elliott
Forestry Mulching
We hired Cut Brush for approximately three acres of forestry mulching and couldn't be happier. Communication was outstanding from the very beginning, the crew was professional and efficient, and we loved the regular updates and photos throughout the project. It's refreshing to work with a company that values communication and quality workmanship. Highly recommend!

Stan Creech
Land Clearing
Greg did a fantastic job with our land that was overgrown with vines, brush and trees. It took about 1 1/2 days of constant work with the machine to get this 0.6 acres under control. Greg was here at 8am sharp, just as promised. Very professional and reliable. 100% satisfied customer! I highly recommend Cut Brush for land clearing.
A straightforward process from the first conversation to land you can use.
Whether it is a pear-choked field near Middletown, a wooded lot in Glasgow or a hedgerow gone wild outside Kennett Square.
Offered across New Castle and Kent counties and the neighboring Chester County towns. Brush and young trees are ground into a chip mat where they stood, with nothing to burn or haul.
Overgrown woodlots and idle fields taken back to the line you choose, with the trees, brush and stumps ground to mulch flush with the ground.
Thorny Callery pear, multiflora rose and saplings cut out of old fields and from under the oaks and pines you keep, with the sprouts that follow planned for in the quote.
A house spot, drive and utility path opened in a wooded lot, with the plan review and any wet ground sorted out before the lines are drawn.
Watch our crew transform overgrown properties with professional forestry mulching equipment.
Cut Brush clears overgrown land for owners around Bear, from Glasgow, Newark and Pike Creek Valley down to Middletown, Townsend and Smyrna, and over the Pennsylvania line in Kennett Square, Oxford and the townships around them. The job might be an old field gone to Callery pear and multiflora rose, a wooded lot of oak, sweetgum and loblolly pine where a house will go, a wet back acre, or a fence line nobody has walked in years.
Most of it is forestry mulching. Our crew grinds brush and small trees into mulch where they grew, in one pass, so nothing is left to burn or haul. We also offer land clearing, Callery pear and understory clearing, and lot and homesite prep.
Ground here changes within a few miles. Much of southern New Castle County is flat Coastal Plain that holds water through winter, while Hockessin sits on rocky Piedmont hills.

Clearing around Bear is mostly reclaiming: fields that sat idle and filled with pear and rose, woodlot edges that crept over a lawn, lots bought years ago and never opened. The method has to deal with the debris on the spot and leave the trees worth keeping.
Wondering what one acre costs before you call? The Bear forestry mulching cost guide compares hourly and per-acre quotes, and the Delaware land clearing cost guide covers wet flats, burning rules and permits across the state.
The flats are wet until late spring. NRCS describes the Fallsington soils of the Coastal Plain flats and swales as poorly drained, with water 0 to 12 inches down from December to May. A tracked machine ruts that ground in March and crosses it easily in September, so a flexible start date saves money. North of Newark the ground turns to rocky schist hills instead.
Plans before 5,000 square feet. Clearing more than 5,000 square feet for building needs an approved sediment and stormwater plan, and 1 acre or more needs construction general permit coverage. In unincorporated Bear the New Castle County Department of Land Use reviews it; Newark, Middletown and Wilmington review their own, and the Kent Conservation District covers Smyrna and Clayton. In the Pennsylvania towns, start with the township. Requirements vary by parcel, scope and jurisdiction, and the governing authority makes the determination.
Callery pear is a listed plant. Delaware's invasive plant law names Callery pear and bars selling, transporting or propagating any viable part of it, seeds included, without state approval. University of Delaware Extension describes it filling roadsides and abandoned fields, and it sprouts back when cut, so plan more than one visit. Our Bradford pear removal guide sets out the plan.
