Common Paddock Mulching Problems in Canterbury
Paddocks left unmanaged on Canterbury lifestyle blocks and farms quickly become unusable. Long grass, gorse regrowth, and old stubble attract pests, increase fire risk, and make land harder to use for grazing or development. Traditional mowing doesn't handle serious vegetation, while chemical spraying creates long-term cleanup issues and doesn't improve soil. Trying to clear paddocks manually or hiring wrong equipment wastes time and money. Finding qualified mulch suppliers and paddock mulching contractors proves difficult for rural properties. Most landscaping companies lack heavy equipment for large-scale paddock mulching on properties over 5 hectares. Coordinating separate contractors for paddock clearing, vegetation management, and site preparation wastes time and delays grazing or planting schedules. Meanwhile, overgrown paddocks continue attracting pests, increasing fire hazards with Selwyn District enforcing regulations, and preventing productive land use for stock or crops.

Our heavy equipment including specialized paddock mulching machinery handles jobs suburban contractors refuse. As one contractor providing mulching, land clearing, and vegetation management, we complete projects efficiently.
