Need Stump Grinder Company
I need a person or a company that has a portable stump grinder that can go behind the house to grind up the stumps from several removed bushes. I received a quote from one tree company and they wanted $400! I thought that was extremely high! Who has a portable stump grinder in the area?

What I've done................use charcoal, cover with aluminum foil and let it burn down into the ground.
Not sure how the fire department likes it, but it works. |

I did something similar back up North, bought a root rot chemical, followed the directions, with the last one being to pour a cup (?) of kerosene on the now rotted root, and burn. I am NOT recommending this, as you may need to get permission from the fire department for the last step......
The other option I used later, was to use a reciprocating saw (sazall or equal) with a very aggressive blade to cut through the roots in multiple locations, and possibly through the stump vertically, then pry out the stump. I took out a 2 foot diameter stump this way....

You describe them as bushes

Like most other things-the gardeners have plenty of work now. It will be far easier and less costly if you call them in November. |
