Frequently Asked Questions

How to get rid of a stump in 2-3 days?

The fastest way to eliminate a stump in this timeframe is with a combination of drilling holes in the stump and applying a chemical stump remover (usually potassium nitrate). Drill holes into the top and sides of the stump, fill these with the stump remover, and keep it saturated with water according to the product directions. This will speed up decay, allowing you to break the stump apart more easily with an axe or mattock within a few days.

How to remove a tree stump without a grinder?

You have a few options:

Manual Removal: For smaller stumps, you can dig around the stump, expose the roots, and cut them with an axe or root saw. Then, leverage the stump out. This is labor-intensive but budget-friendly.

Burning: Check local regulations first. Build a controlled fire over the stump. This takes time and constant monitoring.

Rotting: Drill holes in the stump, add nitrogen fertilizer or Epsom salts, and keep it moist. This is the slowest method, but requires minimal effort.

Hire a Professional with a Stump Grinder: This is often the fastest and most efficient way to get rid of a stubborn stump. Professional services will have powerful stump grinders, making quick work of even large stumps.

How deep can a mini excavator dig?

Most mini excavators have a maximum digging depth between 6 and 12 feet. However, the actual depth depends on the specific model, the bucket size, and the ground conditions. Always refer to the manufacturer’s specifications for your machine.

Is it cheaper to grind or remove a stump?

Generally, grinding a stump is cheaper than full removal. Grinding only takes care of the stump to a few inches below ground level, but it’s faster and less disruptive to your landscaping. Full stump removal involves digging and hauling away the entire root system, making it more labor-intensive and therefore, more expensive. 

What can I use instead of a stump grinder?

If you don’t want to rent a stump grinder, the methods mentioned earlier (manual removal, burning, or rotting) are your primary alternatives. Another option is to hire a professional who may have alternative methods like using a winch to pull the stump from the ground.
