Stump Grinders for Sale in Holywood
Whenever grinding represents a consistent source of revenue, purchasing a grinder eliminates recurring hire costs and ensures the machine is on your premises for instant deployment. We supply new FSI stump grinders throughout the entire pedestrian and self propelled range, alongside used machines from FSI and other leading brands as they enter our inventory.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Four variants comprise the FSI pedestrian range, scaling up in power and capacity from the smallest to the largest.
Designed as the smallest model, the B21 serves sporadic users, garden care contractors, and operators needing infrequent grinding alongside tree care. For a further step, the B22 and B28 models deliver increased engine power and heavier frames.
Such machines operate at a quicker rate and feature firmer cutters. This setup is suitable for operators handling equipment a few days each month rather than on a fortnightly basis.
As the premier pedestrian option in this range, the B38 is built for teams who work regularly. It provides impressive cutting power, easily rivalling light tracked equipment when utilised on the correct projects.
For tree surgery businesses acquiring their initial dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 provides a strong balance of price and capability. If you already manage weekly projects, the B38 pedestrian machine is the ideal choice to ensure you always run out of power during any contract.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
The self driven range from FSI covers the D30, D60 and D74, with track or remote control versions available for the D30. This smallest model serves as a superb flexible option for users moving from manual machinery.
Integrate crawler tracks to negotiate uneven terrain and inclines, or select the radio remote configuration if operator placement is critical during your standard projects.
Ascending to the D60 brings a weightier, considerably more powerful grinder built to tackle vast commercial workloads and large stumps. Afterwards reigns the D74, our top flagship engineered for highly productive contractors, councils, and operators confronting formidable hardwood and big diameter cuts.
We shall lead you through the differences in cutting wheel size, engine output, and mass to help ensure your selection exactly fits your operational requirements.
Used stump grinders in Holywood
We occasionally supply used stump grinders from FSI and other leading brands. Prior to retail, our technicians carefully inspect every machine, so that the condition of the cutting wheel, hydraulic system performance, and cumulative engine hours are openly verified and set out.
Should a machine require new components or maintenance, that work is always finished before any price is officially fixed upon the sales floor.
Investing in second-hand equipment is a practical choice for tree surgeons looking to add an additional grinder, teams that need backup machinery during peak periods, or new businesses needing reliable kit without the high cost of a brand new purchase.
When buying a stump grinder in Holywood makes more sense than hiring
Choosing ownership represents the better economic path when your grinding is ongoing, annual hiring weeks surpass the cost equivalent of a finance payment, or operations rely on having a grinder available at short notice.
Possession is essential for work groups requiring uniformity. Users deliver superior pace and safety on commonly used machinery, meaning the productivity benefits of operating the same grinder throughout the year are clearly apparent in periodic performance data.
Stump grinder hire in Holywood
Finding the perfect match counts, so our hire fleet of FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders is tailored to your particular task rather than making an unsuitable machine to struggle. We ensure peak performance. Prior to every hire, our workshop team thoroughly services each machine, fitting sharp carbide teeth, checking hydraulic levels, and running up the engine.
You will not receive a worn rental machine that has already finished multiple intensive contracts this month with dull cutters and a sliding belt.
Our stump grinder hire Holywood fleet
For pedestrian operations, we supply FSI walk behind grinders ideal to household gardens, side access routes, and lighter commercial tasks where tracked machinery remains unnecessary. These compact units pass through standard garden gates with ease, glide over turf without leaving ruts, and comfortably clear stumps spanning 18 to 24 inches in diameter, depending on the species.
To tackle larger projects, we offer tracked self propelled FSI grinders, including remote controlled systems which help ensure the operator remains securely clear of the cutting wheel during operation. This kind of tracked machinery is the ideal solution for residential developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and any site where you must lift out a number of stumps daily. These tracks safely handle banks, soft ground, and rough terrain that would easily overturn a standard pedestrian model.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
How come purchase when you can rent? Renting is the best option for operators without the steady stump grinding volume to justify purchasing. It is ideal for contractors tackling an unusually large single project, or crews looking to avoid locking in vital capital in temporary machinery!
For users of smaller pedestrian units who occasionally secure contracts needing a tracked grinder, renting this larger equipment for several days is far more economical than purchasing equipment that would remain largely underutilised throughout the working season.
Choosing a specialist ensures you obtain the precise grinder for your individual task, rather than just accepting whatever is on offer at a general depot. Procuring a stump grinder from a chain dealing with pressure washers and floor sanders means the equipment receives the same routine care as a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Holywood FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Holywood?
Rental costs are influenced by the equipment size and your required rental period. Typical hire firms providing small 13hp petrol models generally provide the cheapest option.
While specialist pedestrian FSI grinders command a higher daily rental rate, their superior operating speed provides quick clearance, ultimately cutting the cumulative expenditure per stump once time on site is calculated.
Want the best cutting volume? Tracked self propelled machines are the most expensive the most daily but deliver massive results! Call 0141 775 9288 with your job details for a clear quote.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Run on foot, pedestrian grinders require manual effort and steering. These lightweight, slim machines are well suited for home gardens and restricted residential spaces.
To begin, tracked grinders travel on hydraulic tracks, utilising higher-performance engines and larger-diameter cutting wheels for hard-wood stumps and larger-volume contracts. In contrast, pedestrian machines reach tighter spaces and offer lower per-day running costs.
Tracked machinery increases the pace of tasks, penetrates further underground, and removes more substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
Depth capacities vary by version. Pedestrian FSI grinders remove material several inches below the ground level, preventing regrowth and leaving a flat surface ready for new grass.
Are you considering to resow, pave or build over the cleared spot? Our larger tracked machines can reach much deeper! Just let us what is going there next and we will recommend the ideal cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Holywood?
Whenever used FSI and other brand machines arrive as part-exchanges or trade-in deals, we thoroughly inspect them in our workshop, carry out all necessary servicing, and provide an straightforward condition report.
As our inventory fluctuates weekly, please let us know us if you want to be alerted upon the arrival of a specific model, and we will pleasedly note your interest.
What other brands of stump grinder do you service?
We repair and service FSI, Predator, Carlton, Vermeer, and Bandits stump grinders within our workshop. We offer planned servicing, emergency repairs, cutting wheel rebuilds, and parts supply, no matter where you originally purchased the machinery.
