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!

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.

Land Clearing & Forestry Mulching Across Lincoln City and the Central Coast

Cut Brush clears overgrown land for owners around Lincoln City, from Neskowin and Pacific City in the north to Depoe Bay, Newport and Toledo in the south, and inland through Rose Lodge and Siletz to Grand Ronde, Willamina and Falls City. The job might be Scotch broom taking over the open part of a lot, blackberry burying a fence row, alder and brush closing in on a cabin, or a second-home lot 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, broom and blackberry clearing, and lot and homesite prep.

Mulching leaves a chip mat over the soil, which matters on wet coast ground: the roots stay in place and bare dirt is not left open to winter rain. If you are building, we clear to the ground so your builder can grade.

Sound Familiar?

  • Scotch broom over your head across the open part of the lot
  • Blackberry canes swallowing the fence, the shed and the path to the creek
  • A second home you visit twice a year, and the brush wins every time
  • A pile of cut brush you cannot burn this close to town without a DEQ permit

Cut Brush Delivers

  • Broom ground to chips in the dry season, before the pods ripen
  • Blackberry thickets mulched flat so the fence and the ground are back in view
  • One planned visit, with the scope and price on paper before work starts
  • Brush turned to mulch on site, so there is no pile and no burn permit

Why Lincoln City Property Owners Choose Cut Brush

Clearing on the central coast is mostly broom, blackberry and young trees on wet ground. The method has to answer the debris question, leave the soil covered and fit the dry part of the year.

  • No burn pile to plan around. Oregon's open burning rules bar burning land clearing debris within three miles of Lincoln City or Newport without a DEQ letter permit. Mulching leaves nothing to burn.
  • The trees you want stay. A mulching head works between trunks, so the trees you flag are left standing.
  • Per-acre bands in public. The Lincoln City pricing page lists the range for each kind of work.
  • Scope and price on paper. Our crew writes both out before work starts.
  • What the price includes. Forestry mulching grinds brush, small trees and stumps into mulch on site, with stumps flush with the ground and nothing hauled away. Full stump removal below grade and cut-and-haul for very large trees are discussed and priced in the quote. Grading and build pads are not part of our price.

What to Know Before Clearing Land Around Lincoln City

Broom reseeds the ground you clear. Lincoln County lists Scotch broom, French broom, gorse and blackberry among its noxious weeds, and the county's own crews work road rights of way, not private land. Oregon State University says one mature broom plant sets about 15,000 seeds a year and the seed stays alive in the soil ten years or more, so cutting before the pods ripen, and checking back for seedlings, is part of the plan. The Scotch broom removal guide sets out the order.

The wet season sets the calendar. At the Newport weather station, an average January day brings close to ten times the rain of an August day. Soaked ground slows a tracked machine and leaves ruts, so most clearing here is booked for summer and early fall. The Lincoln City forestry mulching cost guide explains how timing and cover show up in a quote.

Ask the city or the county first. Inside Lincoln City, tree removal is regulated by the city's municipal code and has its own permit application, so call the city before trees come down. Outside it, ask Lincoln County. Disturbing an acre or more of soil brings in Oregon DEQ's 1200-C construction stormwater permit. Requirements vary by parcel, scope and jurisdiction, and the governing authority makes the determination.

Lincoln City Land Clearing FAQ

Ask before booking. Inside the city, Lincoln City regulates tree removal and has its own tree removal permit application, so call the city before any trees come down. Outside the city, ask Lincoln County. If the job disturbs an acre or more of soil, Oregon DEQ's 1200-C construction stormwater permit applies. Requirements vary by parcel, scope and jurisdiction, and the governing authority makes the determination.
Most scopes land between $1,500 and $4,500 an acre. Broom and blackberry along a fence or field edge sit at the low end; dense alder and fir regrowth on a slope sits at the high end. All four bands are on the Lincoln City pricing guide, the Lincoln City forestry mulching cost guide explains what moves the mulching number, and our Oregon land clearing cost guide covers the rest of the state.
Plan on seedlings. Oregon State University Extension says broom stems can regrow after cutting and that new seedlings come up once a stand is disturbed, and the seed lasts ten years or more in the soil. Mulching before the pods ripen stops this year's seed; a check the next season or two catches the rest. Our Scotch broom removal guide sets out the full plan.
Summer and early fall, for most jobs. The coast's winters are wet, and a tracked machine on soaked ground does more damage and less work. July and August, the dry season, is also one of the two windows Oregon State University gives for cutting broom. If your land is wooded, ask the Oregon Department of Forestry about fire season limits on machine work before settling a date.
Four counties along the central coast and the Coast Range. Lincoln County, with Lincoln City, Neotsu, Rose Lodge, Lincoln Beach, Depoe Bay, Siletz, Newport and Toledo. Tillamook County, with Neskowin, Pacific City, Hebo and Pleasant Valley. Polk County, with Grand Ronde and Falls City, and Willamina in Yamhill County. If your land is nearby, ask even when your town is not named.
