What happens to the material after grinding?
Stump grinding produces a mixture of wood chips, shredded roots, and soil. Expect the debris pile to be approximately 2 to 5 times the volume of the visible stump. Larger stumps generally create more debris. The amount varies depending on the stump, roots, soil, and grinding depth.
Choose your cleanup option before grinding begins
A. Grind and leave the debris
We grind the stump and leave the resulting material in the stump area. During this process, the wood chips, roots, and soil are mixed together.
B. Move chips on site and level
We remove most of the wood chips during grinding, before they are mixed with the soil. The chips are moved to an agreed location on your property, and the remaining dirt in the stump area is leveled.
C. Haul debris away and level
We remove most of the wood chips during grinding, before they are mixed with the soil. The debris is hauled off your property, and the stump area is leveled.
Please note: Option A uses a different grinding process. Once the stump has been ground under Option A, it cannot be upgraded to Option B or C.
Options and pricing depend on the job. Your quote will identify the total for each available option.
