American Property Experts

We are the top source for bulk mulch in coastal North Carolina. Diversified, we also offer solutions to contractors in the form of tub grinding, land clearing, soil screening and hauling. With two locations, we serve landscapers, contractors, and municipalities. We take vegetative debris (fallen trees, branches, brush) and repurpose it. Fallen trees become beautiful colored mulch that is safe for kids and pets to play in. Topsoil is screened and offered to landscapers. We blend nutrient-rich soil amendments from compost, screened topsoil and mulch fines to help your garden thrive.

As a provider of eco-friendly, recycled mulches and soils, proficient land clearing and vegetative debris recycling, APE is integral to the communities in and around Wilmington, NC. American Property Experts (APE) was founded in 1997. We are currently one of North Carolina's largest wood debris recycling companies. As a provider of a variety of services (recycled bulk mulches and soils, land clearing, and vegetative debris recycling), APE is integral to the communities in and around Wilmington, NC.

Not only do we have the toughest, most capable machines and manpower to take on your land clearing projects, but we also make sure nothing gets wasted in the process. Logs, stumps, root mat, topsoil, underbrush-we clear it all! If we don't grind it on-site, we can deliver it to one of our two locations in Wilmington, NC, where we make sure to repurpose everything into boiler fuel or high-quality, recycled mulches. Because our services cover several needs, one call has you covered for land clearing, wood grinding, and/or soil screening.

Industries exist in which perfectly good trees are cut down, ground up, sold in bulk to landscapers, or put into plastic bags and shipped to home improvement stores all over the world. Mulch is big business. It's also a big reason many trees die. While many mulches look the same, sometimes you may need to look a little closer to see the true differences. Our mulch is not the typical "tree-killing" mulch. Our industry-specific process allows us to take fallen trees, yard debris and LCID (Land Clearing Inert Debris), and recycle this material to create superior, environmentally beneficial landscape products.

Tub/Horizontal Wood Grinding is the process in which vegetative debris is placed either in a round tub or on a horizontal belt system and fed into a machine designed to grind the debris to create a smaller, reusable by-product. Picture a large round metal tub or a long metal conveyer belt attached to wheels or tracks, capable of grinding wood waste and spitting out hundreds of cubic yards of grindings per hour. These mechanical beasts are vital to our industry, as it allows us to turn vegetative debris into our recycled mulches and boiler fuel.

Land Clearing is one of the many services we take pride in providing to our clients. Our commitment to safety during your land clearing project is as unmatched as our commitment to your overall satisfaction. Due to the unique nature of our business, we are able to offer clients multiple solutions to common needs that are affordable as well as sustainable. Personalized attention is often overlooked in lieu of mass production. American Property Experts pledges to make every attempt possible to meet or exceed your expectations.
