Default Stumpgrinding
Does anyone know of a landscaper who could grind a 5'(radius) stump?

Much appreciated!

Set have you thought about renting a stump grinder? You can save money that way. If not give Ron Miller a call 503-245-4695 good luck on your project.

Has anyone heard of drilling a stump and filling the holes with ammonium sulfate (nitrogen) will dramatically increase the rate of which the stump rots?

I thought about renting a stump grinder; I was told it is not worth the effort. Most renting facilities loan insufficient / underpowered stump grinders...

Call Rich Ezetta in Vancouver. He is in the book so I won't give the number to break the Ifish rules. (I think that is against policy). He has good machines and does an excellent job.

I rented one from Barber Rents a year ago and it worked just fine on a stump that was about 4ft. in diameter.
