Services We Offer in Forest City

Forestry Mulching

Transform overgrown or wooded land into usable property. Our forestry mulching service grinds trees, brush, and vegetation into a natural mulch layer. No burn piles, no heavy equipment damage to your soil.

Subsoil Mulching

North Carolina’s first subsoil mulching service. We grind and bury vegetation and root systems below the surface, preventing regrowth while improving soil aeration and organic matter. One contractor, one visit, one clean result.

Brush Clearing

Reclaim overgrown fence lines, fields, and pastures. We remove dense brush quickly and cleanly, leaving your land ready for seeding, grazing, or development.

Land Clearing & Site Preparation

From residential home sites to commercial development pads, we deliver build-ready or seed-ready surfaces. Complete clearing, leveling, and recompaction in a single process.

The BillyGoat Subsoil Mulching Difference

Instead of hiring separate contractors for forestry mulching, stump removal, and grading — which can cost $8,800–$12,500+ — BillyGoat handles it all in one step. Our subsoil mulching process:

1. Grinds surface vegetation and trees (up to 6–8″ diameter)

2. Mulches and buries root systems up to 10″ deep

3. Levels and recompacts the surface — build-ready or seed-ready

Result: Better soil. No regrowth. One contractor. One check.
