Watson Outdoor Living does land clearing in Pembroke and across north Bryan County. Pembroke is the county seat, and the 1938 courthouse still stands downtown. Highway 280 runs right through the middle of town, where Highway 119 and Highway 67 meet it. We come down Highway 67 from Statesboro with a CAT 275 track loader and a CAT 308 excavator. Some jobs are a wooded acre behind the house. Others are a full homesite that has to be ready for a builder. Either way, we look at the property first and the estimate is free.
North Bryan County is changing fast. The Hyundai Metaplant sits on a 2,900 acre site at Ellabell, about seven miles east of Pembroke. The first vehicles came off that line in October 2024. Land around town is worth more now, and wooded tracts are turning into homesites. We finished a mulching and clearing job in Ellabell, about ten minutes from Pembroke. Black Creek and Lanier sit in the same corridor, on the same kind of ground. Most of it is pine flatwoods, with sandy ridges and low branch bottoms. That mix decides how a lot gets cleared and when a machine can get on it.

Every job starts with what stays. We mark the trees you want to keep, then clear the rest. Small pine and underbrush go through the mulcher head on the CAT 275. Forestry mulching leaves a chip mat that holds the dirt in place. Bigger trees get pushed and dug with the CAT 308, or felled with a saw.
Our stump removal pulls the root ball out whole, because we dig stumps instead of grinding them. How far you take the clearing is your call. Some owners want the lot cut to bare dirt for a builder. Others want the big timber gone and the rest mulched, so rain still soaks in. We load the debris on the dump trailer and haul it off, then smooth the ground back down.
Most of north Bryan County is pine flatwoods. The high spots are sandy and dry, and they clear quick. The low spots are branch bottoms that hold water for days after a hard rain. Gum and cypress grow in those wet strips, with heavy brush under them. The Canoochee River crosses Highway 119 near town, and its branches cut through many of these tracts.
We work the dry ground first and let the bottoms drain. Tracks on the CAT 275 spread its weight, so it stays up where a wheeled machine would sink. Along fence lines and property lines, brush clearing is often all a tract needs. When a bottom stays wet year round, we clear up to the edge and leave that strip alone. The trees there hold the bank and the dirt stays put.

Watson exceeded our expectations with his attention to detail and his ability to meet our timeline. I will recommend them to anyone!
Truly one of the best young men I’ve worked with. Him and his team exceeded my expectations. I’ve had them come for landscaping and debris removal, and each time I’m pleased. I recommended him to a few co-workers of mine and they consistently thought the pricing was reasonable.
Excellent, professional work!
I’m so happy that you do such amazing work.
