We remove retired and sickly trees from roots up — grinding all material on-site, returning it to your soil. No burns. No hauling. Less downtime.
Midland's orchard removal process removes trees both above and below ground, mulching all material on-site and in-place. Once reduced to the desired size, it's returned into the soil using standard cultivation equipment — or rotovated back in if root mass and stumps remain.
This improves soil health by adding organic material back into the ground, without the high-temperature burns that kill microorganisms and pollute the air.
How It Works
Trees are pulled from the roots up, ensuring full removal of the root system above and below grade for a clean field reset.
All material — trunk, limbs, roots — is ground to a desired chip size using horizontal grinders directly in your field.
Chips are spread evenly across the field. If root mass remains, we rotovate it all back into the soil in a single pass.
Final ripping and discing ensures the organic matter is thoroughly incorporated, leaving your field ready for its next season.
Why Midland
Returning ground material to your field adds organic matter and protects the microorganism ecosystem that high-temperature burns destroy.
Everything stays on your land. No trucks, no off-site disposal costs, and no heavy traffic tearing up your fields over multiple days.
Our process is fully burn-free — eliminating air pollutants, fire risk, and regulatory headaches that come with traditional removal methods.
One integrated process. No waiting for burn days, no coordinating multiple contractors. Your field is cleared and ready sooner.
