Local grinding that helps preserve the rhizosphere

Stump grinding is the most sustainable way to remove a stump. Unlike uprooting or other methods that can be harmful to the environment, grinding focuses locally on removing the stump—helping keep soil biodiversity intact and supporting long-term fertility.

No uprooting—protect your underground infrastructure

To avoid accidents and major damage to underground structures, stumps must be removed with the proper equipment. At Arboplus, we use grinding exclusively to remove stumps safely.

A team dedicated entirely to stump services

Our administrative team manages a specialized stump grinding service for small and large stumps—including cedar hedge stumps. Whether it’s after an Arboplus removal or simply to eliminate a stump that’s getting in your way, get an estimate right away by sending us a photo and the dimensions of the stump.


Stump grinding can be done as long as the stump is accessible and the ground isn’t frozen. For more vigorous tree species, like Manitoba maple or poplar, it’s best to grind the stump immediately after removal. Doing it at the right time helps stop the development of shoots and suckers that could eventually grow back and cause problems around nearby structures.

Removing a stump quickly after tree removal is the most effective way to prevent unwanted regrowth. Consider stump grinding at the same time as your tree removal evaluation. If you have an unwanted stump on your property, request a stump grinding estimate today.
