Clearing, Mulching & Dirt Work in Carrollton
A face in a courthouse window is what most people know about Carrollton. The Pickens County Courthouse, built in 1877 after two earlier ones burned, has a windowpane said to hold a face etched by lightning, and the town holds a Face in the Window Fest each fall. Carrollton is the county seat, and it is reached by State Highways 17 and 86, not by US-82, which passes to the north through Reform and Gordo.
Carrollton is a small town, about two square miles, with farm and timber land starting at the edge. It is inside our service area. We take land clearing, forestry mulching, demolition and dirt work jobs here with our own machines: a Cat dozer, tracked mulchers and an excavator. If you have land near the county seat that has grown up, or an old building that needs to come down, tell us about it. Estimates are free. Call or text (205) 535-6376.
Old buildings on old land
Carrollton was incorporated in 1831, so some of the home places around it are very old, and barns and sheds outlive their use. We take down barns, sheds and outbuildings, haul the debris to a permitted site, pull the slab and footings, and grade the ground. See barn and outbuilding demolition. For a house, read whether you need a demolition permit in Alabama and ask town hall before work starts.
Lines, records and rights of way
Carrollton is where the county's business gets done, and a lot of that business is land: sales, estates, boundaries. When a surveyor needs to run a line through thick woods, or a boundary has to be opened before a sale, we cut it straight and wide enough to work in, on the line we are shown. That is right-of-way and survey line clearing. Utilities and builders use the same service for access lanes.
Pine uplands and creek bottoms
Pickens County lies in the East Gulf Coastal Plain, with pine and oak on the uplands and lower ground along the streams that run to the Tombigbee. Carrollton is at about 250 feet. Upland brush is straightforward mulching. Bottom ground needs dry weather and a tracked machine. Highway 86 leads east to Gordo and Highway 17 south to Aliceville, and we take jobs along both. More is on our Pickens County land clearing page.

DetailsEverything else we do in Carrollton
Can you tear down an old barn or shed near Carrollton, AL?
Yes. Barns, sheds, carports and other outbuildings are work we take on. The structure comes down, the debris is loaded and hauled to a permitted site, any slab or footings are broken out, and the footprint is filled and graded. If brush has grown up around it, we clear that on the same trip. Call or text (205) 535-6376 and tell us what is standing.
Will you clear a survey line or property line on land in Pickens County near Carrollton?
Yes. We mulch lines straight and wide enough for a surveyor, a fence crew or a truck to work in. We clear to the line you or your surveyor show us, so have the corners found or flagged first. Tell us the length of the run, what it crosses, and whether old wire is in it, and we can give you a good idea of the job.
What size trees can a forestry mulcher handle on Carrollton timber land?
Our mulchers take brush, briars, privet, kudzu, saplings and standing hardwood up to roughly six to eight inches on the stump. Pine and sweetgum of that size grind quickly. Bigger trees take a dozer and an excavator, and that becomes a clearing job with stumps pulled and debris burned or hauled. Many tracts need some of each, and we lay out both parts in the estimate.

How a Job Runs
Tell Us What You Have
Call, text or send the form. County, rough acreage, what is growing on it and how a truck and trailer gets in.
We Look at the Ground
Close by, we come and look. Farther off, we can go over it with you on satellite first, then see it on the ground before the work starts.
A Number to Plan Around
Estimates are free and priced off the property. Small jobs carry a minimum, and you hear the figure before you commit.
The Machines Go to Work
We settle what comes out and what stays. Mark the trees you want kept, or walk it with us and point them out.
Finished, Not Just Knocked Down
Holes filled, ground pulled back to grade, and the fall set so water leaves the site instead of standing on it.
