The work

Brush, saplings and small stems are mulched in place as a soil-holding layer. Nothing is burned. Merchantable timber is decked on the property for the owner.

On every job

Meet Waylon.

Waylon is real. He is our white Lab, and he comes to work every day. Heavy equipment does not faze him in the least. Book a site walk and you will probably get to meet him.

3The cover story

Huntly Land Co. is a forestry mulching and land management company based in the Brandywine Valley, in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. It handles forestry mulching, land clearing, farm lanes and riding trails, pasture reclamation, Phragmites management and storm cleanup across Chester County, Delaware County, northern Delaware and Sussex County, Delaware.

4Equipment spotlight

Cat 285XE, with the full forestry package.

The 285XE compact track loader is the highest-flow, highest-pressure machine in Cat’s track-loader line, running drum mulchers at full output. Low ground pressure protects turf, paddocks and soft fields.

Drum mulchers

Dedicated heads reduce brush, saplings and small trees to a soil-holding mulch layer in place. No burn piles, no root balls, no haul-off.

Brush cutters

Industrial brush cutters take multiflora rose, autumn olive and briar standing.

Grapples

Grapples move timber and storm debris and deck merchantable logs for the owner.

5Three beats

How a job runs

1.

Send the ground

Two or three photographs, a dropped pin and rough acreage by email. That is enough to start.

2.

Walk it, then propose it

A private site walk, usually inside the same week, then one written proposal covering scope, finish standard, schedule and investment. The walk carries no obligation and no charge inside the service region.

3.

Confirm and cut

The date is confirmed before mobilization. Equipment arrives once, the work runs, and a final walkthrough closes the job. Projects are photographed from the air where the site allows, before, during and after.

7Questions

Asked & answered

Where do you work?

The Brandywine Valley first, then Chester County and southeastern Pennsylvania, northern Delaware, and Sussex County, Delaware. Delaware County, PA and Kent County, DE are also inside the region.

How quickly can you come out?

Send two or three photographs, a dropped pin and rough acreage. We arrange a private walk of the ground, usually inside the same week. The written proposal follows the walk, and the date is confirmed before mobilization. Storm and emergency cleanup is on call 24/7.

How is the work priced?

Every property is assessed on its own ground rather than against a published table. After a private site walk you receive one written proposal covering scope, finish standard, resource plan, stewardship measures, schedule and investment. The walk carries no obligation and no charge inside the service region.

What shapes the investment?

Density and stem size, ground and terrain, access and staging, finish standard, resource plan, stewardship and schedule. Haul-off of non-organic debris, stump grinding below grade, engineered fill, gravel, permits and licensed applications are quoted as separate visible lines.

Do you work on horse farms?

Yes. Equestrian properties are the center of the practice. We take back woody invasion, grind multiflora rose and briar, and finish to a turnout-safe surface with no stobs, no wire and no burn piles, including fence lines, paddock edges and riding trails.

What happens to the timber you take down?

Brush, tops and small stems are mulched in place as a soil-holding layer. Merchantable timber is decked on the property for the owner, at the road end on corridor and lane work, so the value stays where it grew.
