These machines are designed to be placed right next to the stump, where they will grind it into pieces. They look a bit like a lawnmower and a bit like a circular saw. They're very powerful so they can grind the stump easily without being overpowered.
What does the stump grinding process look like? The stump grinder, once put into place, will simply tear at the wood that is left after a tree removal. The rotating blade on the stump grinder will rip the wood as it turns, and then the teeth on the blade will cut the wood into small pieces. The worker overseeing the task will guide the grinder over the whole stump until it has been pulverized to a below-ground level. Then, you will be left with the remnants of the tree below ground, where you can't see the unsightly stump! |

Are there different types of stump grinders? Yes. There are stump grinders made for small jobs, and there are grinders that are powerful enough for even the most formidable tree. Here are some of the types of grinders that are common in the tree trimming industry:
- A handlebar grinder: This type of grinder is small and lightweight, able to fit in the back of a truck. They are used for the smallest jobs, and their size makes them very easy to transport.
- Rear-hitch stump grinders are also easy to transport, as they can be attached to a truck or trailer for travel. When we reach the job site, we uncouple the grinder from the truck or trailer and move them into position.
- Riding grinders are rather like a small tractor, able to be operated from a seat attached to the grinder.
- Skid stump grinders have treads like a tank, and they are either driven from behind or on top. These are used on soft soil, where traditional wheel types would become stuck or churn up the soil.
- A stump grinder attachment is another option. They can be attached to a skid steer, in place of attachments like a trencher or a bucket.
