Stump grinding services will cost between $100 to $500 per stump, depending on the size of the stump, root system, access, and the depth of grinding. Small stumps (less than 12 inches in diameter) are at the lower end of the scale, and bigger stumps (over 24 inches) can range from $300 to $500 or more.

Some service providers charge a flat fee per stump, and others charge an hourly fee between $100 and $200 per hour. When more than one stump needs to be grounded, businesses usually offer a discount, lowering the cost per stump. Stump accessibility also influences costs. Stumps that are difficult to access or near buildings require more careful grinding, raising the overall cost.

Extra tree services like removing roots, wood chip cleanup, or soil replacement can cost an additional $50 to $150. Homeowners who desire a completely cleared area for replanting or landscaping may opt to grind the stump more deeply, with slightly higher costs.

Stump grinding is a good method of stump removal without the extensive labor of removing the entire stump. It gets rid of tripping hazards, avoids pest infestation, and beautifies your landscape.
