Stump Grinders for Sale in Blackwood
When grinding makes up a consistent part of your livelihood, buying a grinder first does away with perpetual rent and secondly guarantees the machine is ready in your yard for any scheduled work. We point you towards new FSI stump grinders across the entire pedestrian and self-propelled range. We also offer pre-owned machines from FSI and other premium brands as they enter our stock.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
The FSI pedestrian range offers four distinct models, which gradually rise in both power and capacity from the most compact to the most substantial.
After a neat powerhouse? The B21 is ideal for infrequent users, garden maintenance contractors, and operators looking for a grinder for odd jobs alongside tree work! Want more muscle? The more powerful B22 and B28 significantly increase the engine output.
Operating with a quicker grind and more assertive cutters, they perfectly suit the regular user who operates machinery several days a month rather than every fortnight.
As the biggest pedestrian option you can choose, the B38 is designed for operators who work on a frequent basis, requiring excellent cutting capabilities and a walk behind unit that successfully competes with compact tracked machinery under the correct conditions.
Whenever tree surgery businesses introduce their first dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 delivers a excellent balance between capability and cost. A practical start. However, weekly specialists demand the mighty B38, ensuring this pedestrian machine never runs out of capacity halfway through a contract.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
The self propelled range from FSI includes the D30, D60, and D74, with tracked and remote control options available for the D30. As the smallest model, this versatile grinder serves as the perfect next move for contractors progressing from pedestrian machinery.
Integrate tracks for navigating yielding terrain and inclines, or opt for the radio remote specification should operator placement be essential to your standard operations.
Selecting the D60 delivers a more substantial, stronger grinder engineered for business volumes and larger stumps. The flagship D74 is suited to high capacity contractors, councils, and specialists managing hard hardwood and very large diameter cuts.
We can thoroughly guide you through the range in cutting wheel dimensions, engine power, and total weight, helping to ensure you won’t end up making an inappropriate purchase.
Used stump grinders in Blackwood
We offer used stump grinders from FSI and other manufacturers as stock comes in. Our workshop examines every machine prior to sale, issuing transparent reports on cutting wheel condition, hydraulic health, and engine hours.
We perform all necessary servicing and tooth replacements before we fix the price on the showroom floor.
Investing in pre-owned equipment is a sensible move for tree surgeons adding an additional grinder, teams needing backup machinery during peak periods, or new businesses needing adequate kit without the steep cost of a brand new purchase.
When buying a stump grinder in Blackwood makes more sense than hiring
When does buying make total financial sense? It is when you are grinding constantly, renting for more weeks than finance costs, or absolutely needing a grinder ready at a moment’s notice!
For working crews, ownership breeds a vital acquaintance. Operators grow swifter and safer when handling the identical grinder each day, a steady routine that ultimately translates into successful seasonal figures.
Stump grinder hire in Blackwood
We supply FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders as part of our hire range, so you can choose the exact machinery needed for your specific task rather than settling with unsuitable equipment. Before dispatch, each grinder undergoes thorough servicing, during which we fit sharp carbide teeth, check hydraulic levels, and test the engine.
You are not receiving receipt of a worn rental asset used on back-to-back jobs with blunt cutters and a slipping belt.
Our stump grinder hire Blackwood fleet
Seeking pedestrian machinery? We hire high-quality FSI pedestrian grinders suitable for domestic gardens, side paths in residential properties, and lighter commercial work where a heavy tracked unit is just overkill! These nimble beasts easily slide through standard gates, guard lawns from unwanted rutting, and comfortably clear stumps from 18 to 24 inches in diameter.
We provide tracked self propelled FSI grinders for substantial projects, with radio remote configurations that keep operators safely clear of the cutting wheel. Tracked units are the best choice for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and sites requiring multiple stump removals daily. Tracks also manage steep slopes, soft ground, and unstable terrain that would readily overturn a pedestrian unit.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Rental very well suits operators whose stump grinding volume cannot yet justify a purchase, contractors carrying out a one-off clearance far beyond their usual scale, and crews refusing to lock up important capital in equipment used only a few weeks annually.
Do you have a smaller pedestrian unit but sometimes pick up jobs needing a tracked grinder? Hiring is the ideal solution! Securing the larger kit for just a few days costs much less than buying a machine that stands unused all season.
Why accept unsuitable machinery? Partnering with a specialist makes sure you secure the ideal grinder for your exact project. Choose a generic depot renting pressure washers and floor sanders alongside your stump grinder, and your precision kit is given the exact same standard maintenance as a standard cement mixer!

Stump Grinder Blackwood FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Blackwood?
Hire rates change according to both equipment dimensions and the lease duration, whilst well-known retail chains supplying compact 13hp petrol models generally constitute the entry level of the market.
Even though premier pedestrian FSI grinders attract greater daily rates, their rapid operation reduces onsite time, making the final cost for every individual stump much more economical.
Tracked machinery with self propulsion attracts the premier daily rate whilst yielding the greatest volume of cutting. Please get in touch with 0141 775 9288 with your project specifications for an exact quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Operated on foot, pedestrian grinders require manual pushing and direction. These lightweight, slim machines are well suited for home gardens and restricted residential spaces.
Driven by hydraulic tracks, tracked grinders use higher-performance engines and larger-sized cutting wheels to tackle hardwood stumps on high volume contracts, whilst pedestrian machines reach restricted areas at a lower daily cost.
Move fast! Tracked machines accelerate jobs, go further underground, and readily tackle massive hardwood stumps!
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
While depth varies by machine, pedestrian FSI grinders typically delve several inches beneath the turf to effectively halt regeneration. This keeps the earth nicely level. Soon, fresh grass will readily reclaim the space.
Are you considering to resow, pave or develop over the cleared spot? Our more substantial tracked machines can reach much deeper! Just inform us what is going there next and we will suggest the most suitable cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Blackwood?
Whenever second-hand FSI and other machinery arrives through part exchange, our specialist workshop fully inspects and services them, before we offer each one with a fully truthful condition report.
Our stock changes each week. Tell us which version you need and we will log your information for an stock arrival alert.
