3 Ways to Remove a Tree Stump

So, you finally got rid of that tree? Good job!

But now you’ve got a new problem. How are you going to get rid of the tree stump?

Here are 3 ways to remove a tree stump from your garden:

1: Use Chemicals

You could argue this is the easiest way to remove a tree stump. And it’s certainly the least labour intensive. But it does take time. Effectively, the chemicals rot the stump into submission. So, a sizeable stump could still be around for a year or more.

2: Remove Stump Manually

Feeling active? This is usually the cheapest way to get rid of a tree stump – if you have all the right tools.

Remember, that stump could go a long way down – particularly if it was a well-established tree. So, a basic garden spade won’t be enough.

Typically, you’ll need:

·         Digging bar

·         Bow saw

·         Axe

·         Mattock

This lot will probably set you back somewhere in the region of £300 - £400 so is only really worth the expense inf you have a lot of stumps to deal with or need those tools anyway.

3: Find a local tree stump removal service

This is usually the best way to remove a tree stump. It’s efficient, quick and requires no real effort o your part.
