Much like the removal of a full-sized tree, a tree stump can be disposed of in one of two different ways – removal or grinding. We determine which method to use depending on the size of a tree, the extent of its root system, and other considerations. Stump grinding allows you avoid having to dig. After cutting off all the parts of the tree that we can remove by conventional means, we then use a machine to grind and shred the stump into mulch and chips. Afterward, what’s left of the stump is covered by soil or fertilizer, and that’s the last you will see of it.
