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 cedar-choked pasture out past Sturgis, a wooded lot near West Point or a fence line gone to vine.
Offered across Oktibbeha County and the counties around it. Brush, vine and young trees are ground into a chip mat where they stand, so there is no pile to burn or truck away.
Wooded acreage and grown-over parcels cleared to a finish written into the quote. Stump removal and grading are left to your dirt or excavation contractor.
Eastern redcedar thickets and brush on old fields and pasture ground, cut back to open grass while the oaks and other trees you flag stay standing.
A house spot, drive and utility path opened on a wooded lot, with the city or county permit questions answered before the machine arrives.
Watch our crew transform overgrown properties with professional forestry mulching equipment.
Cut Brush clears overgrown land for owners around Starkville, from Sturgis and Maben to West Point, Columbus, Macon and Louisville. The job might be a homesite cut out of a wooded lot, an old field that cedars have started to fill, a fence line lost under vine, or hunting land you want to walk without fighting through brush.
Most of it is forestry mulching. Brush and small trees are ground into mulch where they grew, in one pass, so nothing is left to burn or haul. We also offer land clearing, redcedar and prairie pasture clearing, and lot and homesite prep.
We serve Oktibbeha County and the neighboring parts of Clay, Lowndes, Webster, Noxubee and Winston counties. Parts of the county sit on heavy prairie clay that drains very slowly, and open fields and pastures on that kind of ground fill with eastern redcedar once nobody mows or burns them. This area is served from outside rather than from a yard in Oktibbeha County, so photos, a parcel map and a clear goal set the scope before anyone travels, and nearby jobs can share the trip. Two things we do not do: haul debris away, or storm cleanup.
Clay that drains very slowly is hard on tracked machines. The method has to leave the ground covered and the debris question answered.
For the statewide picture, read the Mississippi land clearing cost guide. Larger tracts and multi-day jobs suit a trip from outside the area best, though a single lot is still worth asking about.
City and county are different offices. Inside Starkville, the unified development code requires a land disturbance permit from the city Building Department for clearing done as a step toward construction. The fee is $50 for residential development, and no clearing or grubbing starts until the city has inspected the erosion controls. Logging, timber harvesting and agricultural activity are exempt. Outside the city limits, Oktibbeha County publishes its own site development permit application, and we could not confirm from its page what triggers it, so the courthouse answers that one. Requirements vary by parcel, scope and jurisdiction, and the governing authority makes the determination. The Starkville and Oktibbeha County permit guide covers both.
One acre brings the state in. The state environmental agency requires construction stormwater coverage once disturbance reaches one acre, and the city's own application asks whether the area is over an acre. Mulching leaves roots in place and a chip layer on top, which suits that kind of plan better than scraping to bare dirt does.
Prairie ground grows cedar. The US Forest Service describes the Black Belt or Blackland Prairie as a mosaic of grassland, oak woodland and redcedar thickets, and says the cedar zones may mark invasion where fire has been kept out. The Oktibbeha soil series, first described in this county in 1907, is clay with very slow permeability. The tree itself does not sprout back after cutting. The redcedar clearing guide explains what that means for the job.
