Cedar-choked acreage and old strip-mine ground around Randolph County, opened back up without burning or hauling.

Forestry mulching around Moberly, Missouri clears the cedar, brush and volunteer timber that take over acreage in Randolph County, including the reclaimed mine ground west and south of town where brush grows thick on old spoil. Everything is ground where it stands and left as mulch, with no burn pile and nothing hauled off.
Moberly: Cedar on Every Piece of Ground Nobody Mows
Moberly is the biggest town between Columbia and Kirksville, and the acreage around it has the same problem as the rest of north-central Missouri: eastern red cedar takes anything that is not mowed, grazed or planted. The difference in Randolph County is history. This was coal country, and a lot of the ground west and south of town was strip-mined and reclaimed decades ago. That reclaimed ground grows brush like nothing else.
Old mine ground is its own kind of clearing job. The soil is rough, the grade rolls in ridges and pits, and cedar, locust and sumac come in thick because nothing has been farmed there since it was reclaimed. It is also some of the best hunting ground in the county for exactly that reason. Mulching suits it: a tracked machine handles the rough grade, and grinding in place avoids pushing piles around on ground that is already uneven.
Closer to town, along Highway 63 and out Route M and Route DD, the jobs are the ones every growing town produces: acreage lots that were pasture ten years ago and are timber edge now, fence lines gone to cedar and hedge, and building sites that need a house pad and a lane opened up without a burn pile in the front yard.
East of Moberly toward Cairo and Clark the ground flattens into farm country, and there it is field edges and fence rows. West toward Thomas Hill Reservoir the cover thickens again, and much of it is managed for deer and turkey. Shooting lanes, trails to stands and thinning around food plots are regular work out that way.

Moberly FAQ
Common questions from property owners in Moberly, Missouri.
Yes, and it is well suited to a tracked mulcher. The rough grade and the mix of cedar, locust and sumac that comes up on reclaimed spoil are exactly what the machine is built for, and grinding in place avoids pushing piles on ground that is already uneven.
The shop is in Salisbury, about half an hour west on Highway 24, so Moberly is a short haul and travel is a small part of the quote.
Yes. House pads, shop sites and driveway lanes on acreage lots are common around Moberly, and because the material is ground rather than piled there is nothing to burn next to the new house.
