  • How small stump jobs pay more if you bid them right. I rather do four or five small stumps jobs in a day verse one huge stump. It sometimes pays more to do small jobs in one area. Thanks for watching! #stumpremoval #stump #stumpgrinder #stumps #treeremoval #treestump

    I`d rather grind the smaller stumps too. It`s easier on the machine and usually good money.
    I have a $150 min just to show up with my machine that will cover up to about a 12" - 14" stump any thing bigger goes up depending how long I think I will be there.

    That grinder, looks like best beast for a buck. I see they’re going for around 20k for a good condition used, which blows away the less powerful newer models.

    Your RAYCO does fast work on those stumps with less stress on your body. It helps to have the right equipment for the job. What does a rig like that cost with a trailer? Do you ever have trouble getting paid after the job is done? Thanks.

      @starman6092, I bought my setup in 2011 with the trailer for around $22,000 with 700 hrs on it. The right equipment does make the difference in a job. Thanks for watching!!

      I've seen situations where the wife wants the husband to rent a machine and grind the stump. After he finds the cost and estimates the work it will take to pick it up, transport it to the work site, do the work which he is not familiar with, clean the machine, fill it with fuel and transport it back to the rental place, he sees that it's a bargain to have someone show up, disappear the stump while he drinks a few beers.

    looks like you are going pretty deep. Are you getting the whole root ball out? Or do you have to leave some wood in the ground with that grinder?

    • @ChrissStumpGrinding

      If I am grinding small stumps like two foot or less, I grind the whole stump out. I try to go four to six inches deep for grass to grow. Thanks for watching!

    • @ChrissStumpGrinding
      @ChrissStumpGrinding  Год назад

      Justin Sigmon, it depends on if planting a tree or just growing grass. If its grass I would say 4 to 6 inches is good. Thanks for watching!!!

    I recently sold my stump grinding
    business here in Brisbane Australia, and I had the same problem that you are having, so many times I would go to a job and after doing quoted amount of stumps the customer would miraculously find another one or two for me to do for free of course never fell for that trap. I had a minimum charge of $100 and sometimes it was a real battle people on the stand that you give them a quote and want to have given them that quote they would want to be
