Shredding and processing extracted stumps
We assess processing options for extracted stumps according to their quantity, dimensions, contamination and machinery access. Please also specify whether the processed material will be used on site or removed.
Extracted stumps differ from clean pruning branches. Their dimensions, soil, stones and other contaminants affect processing. Photographs and a description help us assess suitable shredding and handling. For larger quantities, the working area must be chosen beforehand, along with whether the processed material will stay or be removed.

What to know before booking
We plan stump shredding and processing according to their size, position and machinery access.
When this service can help
- You have extracted stumps on site that need processing.
- Land clearance has produced a large quantity of coarse woody material.
What we agree beforehand
- Stump quantity, size and position, including attached soil and contaminants.
- Machinery access, handling and subsequent use or removal of processed material.
The result and follow-up care
We determine the shredding method from photographs, dimensions and material condition. The quotation separates processing extracted stumps from any extraction, movement or removal. A stump still in the soil requires a different assessment.
Tell us whether the stump is still in the ground or has been extracted. Shredding extracted material and grinding a stump in the soil require different solutions.
THE STUMP SHREDDING PROCESS
How does on-site stump shredding work?
We adapt processing to stump size and site access, agreeing the scope before starting.
- 01
Assessing the stumps
We inspect the site, count the stumps and establish machine access. We agree what will happen to the processed material.
- 02
Wood chipping
We process extracted stumps with equipment chosen for their dimensions, contamination and the agreed material preparation.
- 03
Tidying the site
We agree handling and tidying according to the material's condition and next use. Material from contaminated stumps is not automatically suitable as mulch.

How long does stump shredding take, and what does it cost?
Time depends on stump size and quantity; larger quantities take longer than individual pieces. Diameter, quantity and access determine the price. Send an estimate and we will prepare a quotation.

Frequently asked questions
We have several extracted stumps. Can they be processed on site?
We assess processing options for extracted stumps according to their quantity, dimensions, contamination and machinery access. Please also specify whether the processed material will be used on site or removed.
Can you process a stump still in the ground?
Send a photograph and description. For a stump in the ground, we assess grinding or extraction; for extracted material, we assess suitable shredding.
Why do you need to know whether soil is attached?
Soil, stones and metal affect equipment suitability and material preparation. Send an overall photograph and close-ups of any contaminants.
Should I gather the stumps into one pile before you arrive?
Let us first agree the working area and handling. Suitable positioning depends on access, machine space and the size of individual pieces.
What determines the price of this work?
Our quotation reflects this specific task, access and the required result. We clarify stump quantity, size and position, including soil and contaminants, as well as machinery access, handling and the processed material's next use or removal.
