📞 Call (217) 809-0779 Free EstimateA fence row that's gone to brush is a few feet of lost ground on both sides, a home for groundhogs and tree seed, and a headache come planting and spraying. Let it go ten years and it's a tree line. The fix is to clear it back to the line and reclaim the strip.
Brohez Trucking LLC clears overgrown fence rows across central Illinois — brush, saplings, volunteer trees, and the old fence buried in the middle of it. We cut and push the growth out, grub the stumps and roots, pull the old woven wire, barbed wire, and posts, and grade the strip back so you can farm it, mow it, or run a new fence straight down it.
The point isn't just to knock it down — it's to leave workable ground. Stumps grubbed so the planter and the post auger run clean. Roots out. Debris piled and burned or hauled. Old wire gone so nothing wraps an axle or a brush hog later.
Cat D6N dozer to push out brush and small trees and grade the strip back. Komatsu PC150LC-6 excavator with a thumb to pull trees, grub stumps, and load debris. Takeuchi TL150 and Cat 259D3 track loaders and the JCB 8040ZTS mini for tight work and cleanup. See the full fleet at /equipment/.
One contractor for the cut, the push, the stumps, the wire, the haul-off, and the finish grade. Call and we'll come walk the row. The estimate is free.
Whether it's a brushy line or a grown-up tree row, the steps are the same.
We walk the fence line, look at how heavy it's grown in and how big the trees are, ask what you want the strip for after, and write a straight number. Free.
Woven wire, barbed wire, T-posts, and old line posts come out first — including wire that's grown into the trees — so nothing gets buried in the debris pile.
Brush, saplings, and trees cut and pushed out with the dozer or pulled with the excavator and thumb, worked off the row to keep field disturbance to the strip.
Stumps and root balls grubbed out so nothing's left to catch tillage, fight a post auger, or send up suckers next spring.
Debris piled and burned on-site where conditions and rules allow, or hauled to a proper disposal site. Firewood logs set aside if you want them.
The cleared strip graded back smooth and ready — to disc and farm, to mow, or for a fence crew to set a straight new line. Buried tile outlets located and protected.
From a brushy line between two fields to a grown-up tree row that's eating an acre.

Real clearing and earthwork from across central Illinois — same equipment, same crew on fence rows as on every job.
Depends on the length of the row, how heavy it's grown in, the size of the trees, what's done with the debris, and whether old wire and posts come out. A few hundred feet of brush is a half-day; heavy timber along a long row takes longer. Free on-site estimate — call (217) 809-0779.
