Clearing, Mulching & Dirt Work in Eutaw
Eutaw was laid out in 1838, when Greene County moved its seat away from Erie, a river town on the Black Warrior troubled by flooding and yellow fever. It was first called Mesopotamia and was renamed for the Revolutionary War battle at Eutaw Springs. In the 1800s it was a cotton and shipping town and the legal center of the Black Belt. The Greene County Courthouse Square District and Kirkwood Mansion still show that past. Eutaw is outside our original counties, but it is inside our service area, and we take jobs here.
US-11 and US-43 run through the middle of town, and I-20/59 crosses the northwest corner at exit 40. The county raises beef cattle, catfish and timber today, and the land around Eutaw is pasture, pine and hardwood bottoms. The common jobs are fields that have grown up, fence rows lost in brush, and hunting land that needs lanes and plots. We do them with a Cat dozer, an excavator and tracked mulchers.
Pasture gone back to brush
Black Belt fields that sit idle fill in with sweetgum, cedar, blackberry and briars. Keep it mowed and it stays open. Leave it alone and it turns to thicket. A mulcher takes the woody growth down to ground level and leaves the topsoil where it is, so grass can come back. See pasture reclamation.
Two rivers and a swamp
Greene County lies between two rivers: the Tombigbee on its western border and the Black Warrior on its eastern one. The Sipsey River swamp runs along the north side. Bottom land holds water long after a rain, so work there waits on dry weather, tracks or no tracks. Clearing in or next to a wetland or stream is a question for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, so ask before the machines go in. Finches Ferry gives boat access to the Black Warrior near town.
Hunting land and burning
Much of the timber around Eutaw is hunted. A mulcher opens shooting lanes, trails and food plot clearings without pulling stumps, and the ground is ready to disk and plant. If brush is to be burned, the Alabama Forestry Commission requires a permit for more than a quarter acre or within 25 feet of woods or grass. Timing is covered in our guide on when to cut hunting lanes and food plots.

DetailsEverything else we do in Eutaw
Do you take land clearing jobs in Eutaw and Greene County, AL?
Yes. Eutaw and the country around it are inside our service area. We take land clearing, forestry mulching, pasture work, fence line clearing and hunting land jobs, using our own dozer, excavator and tracked mulchers. Tell us where the land is, how many acres and what is growing on it, and call or text (205) 535-6376 for a free estimate.
Can you clear an overgrown fence line on a cattle farm near Eutaw?
Yes. A mulcher cuts the row back to a clean strip wide enough for a fence crew and a tractor. Tell us if old wire or posts are buried in the growth, and show us where the line runs. If a survey is needed first, have the line marked before we start.
When is the ground dry enough to clear river bottom land near Eutaw?
It depends on the year, and on how long since the last wet spell. Bottoms along the Black Warrior and the Tombigbee stay soft, and even tracked machines rut ground that is soaked. We look at the ground before a date is set. Low, wet areas may also be wetlands, so check with the Corps of Engineers first.

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.
