Stump grinding is performed by a machine called a stump grinder. It chips away the stump and surface roots, to a depth of 10-12 inches below grade. After the stump is ground out, there is a pile of mulch created by the stump grinder. Our basic stump grinding price includes grinding the stump, and raking the grindings (mulch) back into a pile over the hole.
We can haul off the stump grindings at an additional charge. Most of our customers choose to save the money for hauling it away, and just use the mulch in their flower beds, or for making mulch rings around trees, or in the their gardens.
