Forestry Mulching And Land Clearing in Cincinnati, OH
Home county. Steep hills, thick honeysuckle, short drive.
We're based in North Bend at the west end of Hamilton County, so Cincinnati jobs are close to home.
Forestry mulching in Cincinnati starts in our own backyard. North Bend sits where US-50 runs along the Ohio, just upriver from where the Great Miami comes in, and Cincinnati is our middle starting point. Most of Hamilton County is a short drive, so small jobs make sense here. We'll even do a half day, as long as we can line up two in a day.
The west side is where we see the most work: steep, wooded hillsides and ravines around Cleves, Miami Township, Green Township and Harrison, where Amur honeysuckle has filled every gap under the trees.
Hillsides and ravines on the west side
Cincinnati is hill country. West-side lots often drop off into a ravine nobody has touched in decades, and that ground fills in with honeysuckle, briars and dead ash until you can't see the creek or walk to the back of your own property.
We cut that understory down with the mulcher and leave the bigger trees standing, so you get an open woods floor instead of a wall of brush. Our brush mulching page shows what that looks like.
We'll even do a half a day. As long as I can schedule two in a day, we'll do a half a day.

Real acreage out toward Harrison and Colerain
Out by Harrison, where I-74 comes in from the Indiana line, and up through Colerain Township, where the wooded hills slope down to the Great Miami, Hamilton County still has real acreage. Old fields have gone to autumn olive, horse lots have lost their edges, and back acres haven't been walked in years.
That's where residential land clearing and brush clearing for trails and fence lines earn their keep.
Water coming off the hill
Steep yards send water downhill fast, and the heavy clay here doesn't soak much of it up. When a clearing job opens a slope and there's a soggy spot at the bottom, we can cut a swale or lay a drain line while the mini excavator is on site. See our yard drainage and French drain installation work.

Questions from Cincinnati
Do you clear land in Cleves and Miami Township?
Those are our nearest neighbors. Cleves and Miami Township sit right next to North Bend, with the Great Miami bottoms on one side and the wooded ridges out toward Shawnee Lookout on the other. Plenty of properties there have back acres that have gone to brush.
Do you work on the east side, like Anderson Township?
Yes. It's a longer drive from North Bend than the west side, but it's still Hamilton County. The wooded slopes above the Little Miami and the Ohio get the same honeysuckle problem, and we handle it the same way.
Can you clear honeysuckle under the trees without hurting them?
Yes. The mulcher takes out the shrub layer and small saplings and works around the trees you want to keep. Honeysuckle resprouts from its roots, so expect some regrowth and plan on spot treatment or a follow-up pass.
Will a machine tear up my hillside yard?
A compact track loader spreads its weight on rubber tracks, so it's easier on the ground than wheels. We stay off slopes too steep to work safely and say so at the estimate. The mulch left behind helps hold the soil while new growth comes in.
Do you take small jobs in Cincinnati?
Yes. Because we're close, a half-day job on a west-side lot is easy to schedule next to another one. Every job is priced by the job, so you know the number before we start.
How far north and across the river do you go?
Up the Great Miami to Hamilton, OH and beyond, and across the Ohio into Northern Kentucky, which is our top priority. Southeast Indiana, around Lawrenceburg and Aurora, is right next door too.
