Brush clearing and bush hogging keep a property from turning into a thicket. Three Crosses Land Services cuts overgrown fields, pastures and lots around Chattanooga, TN. Our rotary brush cutter runs on a mini skid steer and knocks down tall grass, briars and light brush. Estimates are free, so call or text (423) 260-5675.
Ground grows fast in the Tennessee Valley. Warm weather runs from March into November, and summer rain pushes brush hard. A field skipped for a season comes back waist high in weeds and briars. Privet and blackberry move in behind them, and saplings follow.
That kind of growth is too heavy for a lawn mower and too light for a full clearing job. A rotary cutter is the right tool for it. We cut fields, pastures, vacant lots, trails and the ground around barns. The mini skid steer fits through a standard fence gate, so back lots and fenced pastures stay reachable.

Most of this work is ground that got ahead of the owner. That means pasture nobody has grazed lately, hay fields with saplings coming up, and lots sitting empty between owners. We also cut trails, food plots, ditch banks and the ground around barns. Tall grass, weeds, briars, blackberry, privet and honeysuckle all come down the same way.
The cutter handles brush and saplings up to about three inches thick. Bigger trees and heavy woody growth call for land clearing instead. Old wire, tires and dumped trash hide in tall grass, so point those out before we start. Getting that material off the property is junk and debris hauling.
Access decides a lot on this work. The mini skid steer fits through a standard gate, so fenced pastures and backyards stay open to us. Property lines grown thick with privet fall under fence line clearing, and we can price that with the same estimate.
Some people call it brush hogging, and it means the same work. Every job starts with a look at the ground, so we see what is growing and what stays. Well heads, septic lids, survey stakes and young trees get marked before the cutter turns.
The machine works the edges first, then runs back and forth across the open ground. Heavy growth takes two passes, one high to knock it down and one low to finish. The cut material drops in place and scatters, then breaks down over the next few weeks.
What you get back is short stubble and ground you can see again. Most fields end up a few inches tall, close to a rough mow. A small lot can take a few hours, while several acres runs a day or more. A second cut in late summer keeps a field easy to manage.
Price follows the ground. How much area, how tall the growth is and how woody it has gotten all move it. A field of grass cuts faster than a lot full of saplings and briars. Slope, soft spots and rocks hiding in the grass slow the machine down as well.
Access counts too. A gate we can drive through and a short pull from the trailer keep the hours down. A first cut on ground left alone for several years takes longer than a yearly maintenance cut.
Estimates are free. We come look at the property, talk through what you want cut, and give you a price first. Three Crosses Land Services is a veteran-owned family business based just north of Chattanooga, serving Southeast Tennessee and Northwest Georgia. Call or text (423) 260-5675.

(423) 260-5675From the first call or text to the finished property, here is how it goes.
Reach us at (423) 260-5675 with what you need done and where the property sits. Photos of the growth help us size up the job.
We come out, look at the growth and how equipment gets in, then give you a price. The number tracks how thick the growth is and how much ground it covers.
You approve the price and we put the job on the schedule. We confirm the day ahead of time so you know when the machine is coming.
The mini skid steer comes in through the gate and the mulcher goes over the growth. Bigger stems come down first, then get ground into chips.
The chips get spread level across the cleared ground. What is left is open space you can mow, fence, or use for whatever comes next.
