Recent Work For Palmerston North
and Manawatū Locals

Take a look at how we tackle vegetation overgrowth fast and efficiently with our mulcher attachment on the 20T excavator. This technique not only speeds up the job but also helps the environment by returning mulched vegetation back to the land, avoiding burn piles that release carbon into the air. The mulch enriches the soil and reduces the cleanup work.

We often mulch willow trees down to about 1 meter, leaving the stumps and roots intact along waterways to keep the banks strong. This way, the willows regrow stronger and don't get too tall and fall over. Our mulching services can handle gorse, blackberry, and any type of tree, bringing your paddocks back to a great grazing state. Watch our mulcher in action and see the difference it makes!
