Forestry mulching is an advanced land clearing method where a machine grinds vegetation, trees, and brush into mulch on-site—eliminating the need for burning or hauling debris. This technique is perfect for Maple Ridge properties because it preserves topsoil, prevents erosion, and leaves your land immediately ready for construction or landscaping. The Goat Land Clearing And Excavations uses the powerful GEHL RT 250 forestry mulcher, the most capable machine in the industry for Maple Ridge and surrounding areas.

Unlike traditional clearing methods that take weeks, The Goat Land Clearing And Excavations completes most residential projects in 1-3 days using advanced forestry mulching technology. Smaller lots can often be finished in a single day. Larger commercial projects or properties with challenging terrain may take longer, but our equipment's power and efficiency still means we finish significantly faster than competitors using older methods.
