Stump Grinding in Glenrock, WY

We grind stumps below ground level so you can mow, landscape or plant again. Stump grinding can be quoted together with a tree removal.

A stump in a Glenrock yard has a way of outlasting the storm that created it. Heavy wet snow or a river-valley gust can take a tree down in a single night, and the stump left behind blocks the mower, sprouts shoots and slowly rots. Our crew grinds it below ground level, along with large surface roots that get in the way, so you can reseed, lay sod or plant again.

An arborist first checks the stump and the ground around it for walks, fences and buried lines. Drought-hardened soil and old, weathered wood make some stumps tough, so we size up each one before quoting. Wood chips can stay for mulch in beds away from the house or go with our crew. Deeper roots remain in the ground and decay over time, since grinding is not full root removal.

Planning to put a new tree in the same spot? Talk with the arborist, because fresh soil a short distance away can serve a young tree better than ground full of chips and old roots. Glenrock, WY customers can call (307) 337-8474 or send a request through our website for a free estimate.

Choosing Stump Grinding

Grinding a Stump Versus Leaving It

A leftover stump can sprout new shoots, attract insects, rot slowly and become a trip hazard or a mowing problem.

Grinding takes out the stump and surface roots. The deeper roots stay in the ground and break down over time.

If you plan to plant a new tree, build a patio or lay sod in the spot, grinding right after the removal makes the job simpler.
