Fecon Bull Hog forestry mulcher — the industry-leading U.S.-built mulching attachment. Land clearing, brush removal, and right-of-way maintenance in a single pass.
Forestry mulching is the fastest, cleanest way to clear land. Instead of cutting trees, hauling brush, and burning a pile, a mulcher grinds standing trees, brush, and undergrowth into mulch that stays on the ground as erosion control and organic matter. No burn pile. No hauling. No follow-up landscaping. One machine, one pass.
We run a Fecon Bull Hog — the attachment brand most professional land-clearing contractors specify by name. Fecon is an Ohio-based U.S. manufacturer, and the Bull Hog line is what the forestry mulching industry is built on.
What the Fecon Bull Hog does
The Bull Hog is a high-flow hydraulic drum mulcher mounted on a tracked carrier. It rolls up to standing vegetation — brush, saplings, small trees, invasive species — and grinds it into mulch chips in place. Trees larger than the mulcher’s capacity are cut down first with chainsaws or the crane, then the stump and any remaining brush get mulched in the same pass.
The tracked carrier’s ground pressure stays low, so the mulcher can work on sloped terrain, soft ground after rain, and inside mature stands without tearing up the surrounding landscape. When the job’s done, the ground is covered in a protective layer of mulch — no burn scar, no ruts, no bare soil.
Why forestry mulching beats conventional land clearing
- One machine, one pass. No separate cutting, hauling, chipping, and cleanup crews — the Bull Hog does all of it in place.
- No burn pile. No permit applications, no air-quality concerns, no fire risk during dry months, no hours spent waiting for a pile to finish burning.
- No hauling. The mulch stays on site as erosion control and organic matter. No dump fees. No truck traffic in and out.
- Lower total cost. Fewer crews, fewer trucks, fewer days on site.
- Erosion control built in. The mulch layer protects bare soil from washout on slopes and cleared lots.
- Environmentally cleaner. No smoke, no fuel for burning, no trucking emissions from haulage.
When we bring the Fecon
- Lot clearing for new-construction residential or commercial sites
- Utility and pipeline right-of-way maintenance
- Invasive species removal (multiflora rose, autumn olive, honeysuckle, buckthorn)
- Overgrown fence lines, property boundaries, and access roads
- Post-logging site reclamation and slash cleanup
- Meadow restoration and wildlife habitat management
- Firebreak maintenance around structures
Combined with crane and spider-lift work
For complete land clearing, we combine equipment. The 65-ton COPMA 650 or 90-foot wallboard crane removes the large trees. The CMC 92HD+ or TEUPEN LEO 23GT handles tight-access work. Then the Bull Hog mulches everything left behind — brush, saplings, stumps, slash — into a clean mulch layer. One phone call, one crew, one job.
