ASAP SERVICE RATES
Why Choose ASAP?
At ASAP Stump Grinding, we prioritize thorough removal for your safety and landscape health:
- We grind stumps well below ground level, not just surface-deep like some cheaper services.
- This prevents termite infestations and allows for new planting.
- Our process includes assessment, proper equipment setup, and debris cleaning.

Why Larger Stumps Cost More to Remove?
A small increase in stump size can lead to a big jump in removal cost.
Here's why:
When a stump's radius grows from 50cm to 75cm, it's a 150% increase. This results in a 525% increase in area.
The 75cm stump has five times more wood volume than the 50cm one.
Consequently, larger stumps require much more time and effort to remove due to their greatly increased wood volume.
The Stump Grinding Process
✔️Assessment and preparation:
Assess the stump's size, location, and surrounding obstacles before grinding.
✔️Setting up the stump grinder:
Position the stump grinder near the stump, adjust the cutting wheel, and ensure safety measures are in place.
✔️Grinding the stump:
The grinding begins as the cutting wheel spins over the stump, turning it into wood chips. This continues until the entire stump, including roots, is ground below ground level.
✔️Clearing the debris:
Stump grinding produces wood chips or mulch. These can be used in your garden or removed. Clear any remaining debris for a tidy finish.
