STUMP GRINDING 101

• By the Stump – This is probably the most common way in which companies charge for stump grinding services. To arrive at the total stump grinding cost, you just need to know how many stumps need to be handled. In most cases, the company will charge around $100-$200 for the first stump and a discounted rate for each additional stump. They might also charge a flat rate of $500 for 10 stumps and $25 to $30 for each additional stump.
