Stump Grinders for Sale in Hurlford
When grinding provides your steady income, purchasing a machine removes recurring rental costs and ensures it is in your yard ready for action. We offer new FSI stump grinders across the full pedestrian and self propelled range. We also have used machines from FSI and other major brands as they arrive through trade.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Featuring four distinct versions, the FSI pedestrian portfolio progresses in both power and capability from the smallest model to the biggest one.
After a compact powerhouse? The B21 perfectly suits infrequent users, garden maintenance teams, and operators wanting a grinder for odd jobs alongside tree work! Want more muscle? The larger B22 and B28 significantly step up the engine output.
Such machines work at a quicker rate and use more aggressive cutters. The setup is suitable for operators using equipment several days a month rather than every two weeks.
The B-38 is the most sizeable pedestrian model in the range, built for teams who work daily, need enhanced cutting power, and need a walk behind unit that rivals lighter tracked machines on relevant projects.
Are you considering adding a dedicated first stump grinder to your tree surgery business? Choosing a B22 or B28 perfectly combines capability with price! For those grinding weekly, the B38 is the perfect pedestrian machine. It helps ensure you never run out of capacity halfway through a tough contract!
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
The self-propelled range from FSI includes the D30, D60, and D74, with track and remote control options available for the D30. As the most compact model, this multi-purpose grinder serves as the ideal next move for contractors progressing from pedestrian machinery.
Add specialised tracks to tackle difficult inclines and loose terrain, or choose the radio remote configuration when operator positioning determines your everyday projects.
Initially, upgrading to the D60 introduces a more substantial, hardier machine built for commercial scales and substantial stumps. Then, the D74 stands as the premier model in this collection, designed for productive contractors, local councils, and specialists tackling tough hardwood and wide diameter timber.
We explain the differences in cutting wheel size, engine power and overall weight to ensure you do never get too much or less than you need.
Used stump grinders in Hurlford
We supply used stump grinders from FSI and alternative manufacturers as stock becomes available. Our workshop inspects every machine prior to sale, delivering transparent reports on cutting wheel condition, hydraulic health, and engine hours.
Should a machine needs to have servicing or replacement teeth prior to being sold, this essential maintenance is carefully completed before the final retail price is established.
Putting money in second-hand equipment is a logical move for tree surgeons looking to add an additional grinder, teams that need backup machinery during peak periods, or new businesses needing adequate kit without the substantial cost of a brand new purchase.
When buying a stump grinder in Hurlford makes more sense than hiring
When does buying make total financial sense? It is when you are grinding constantly, renting for extra weeks than finance costs, or absolutely needing a grinder ready at very short notice!
Proprietorship remains vital for teams requiring uniformity. Users achieve superior throughput and security on habitually utilised machinery, meaning the output benefits of using the same grinder throughout the year are clearly visible in yearly performance data.
Stump grinder hire in Hurlford
Our rental fleet includes FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders, so that you match the right machine to the particular task. We thoroughly inspect every grinder between hires. We attach sharp carbide teeth, inspect hydraulic levels and test the engine before any unit leaves the workshop.
Be assured you are not receiving an exhausted hire machine that has finished multiple previous jobs with worn cutters and a loose belt.
Our stump grinder hire Hurlford fleet
For pedestrian operations, we provide FSI walk behind grinders perfectly suited to domestic gardens, side access routes, and less demanding commercial tasks where tracked equipment remains unnecessary. These versatile units move through standard garden gates easily, glide over turf without leaving ruts, and easily clear stumps spanning 18 to 24 inches in diameter, depending on the species.
For more substantial commissions, we source tracked self propelled FSI grinders, incorporating radio remote configurations that permit operators to remain safely distanced from the spinning cutting wheel. These tracked designs provide the optimal solution for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and locations demanding large-scale daily stump clearance. What is more, tracks effectively negotiate steep inclines, soft ground, and undulating terrain that would easily destabilise a pedestrian alternative.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Hiring is best for operators with too little stump grinding volume to make buying worthwhile, contractors undertaking a one-off clearance project far exceeding their typical capacity, and businesses wishing to prevent locking away capital in machinery used only for a few weeks annually.
For users of a more compact pedestrian unit, hiring is an practical option when taking on occasional jobs that require a tracked grinder. Opting for a brief rental for this larger equipment is much more economical than purchasing machinery that simply sits idle.
Choosing a specialist ensures you obtain the precise grinder for your particular task, rather than just accepting whatever is to hand at a general depot. Buying a stump grinder from a chain dealing with pressure washers and floor sanders means the equipment gets the same routine care as a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Hurlford FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Hurlford?
Hire costs depend on the equipment size and your required duration. Typical hire firms providing small 13hp petrol models often provide the lowest-cost starting point.
Investing in professional grade pedestrian FSI grinders requires a higher daily rate, yet they clear stumps with remarkable speed. Swift work. Taking into account saved site hours renders each clearance more affordable.
While self-propelled machines demand the greatest daily rate, they deliver the highest cutting volume. Simply phone 0141 775 9288 with your project details for an accurate quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Hand-steered, pedestrian grinders are operated on foot. These slender, low-weight machines skillfully negotiate restricted residential spaces and domestic gardens.
Powered by hydraulic tracks, tracked grinders employ higher-performance engines and larger cutting wheels to tackle hardwood stumps on large-volume contracts, whilst pedestrian machines access restricted areas at a more affordable daily cost.
Tracked machinery offers speedier operation, greater subterranean excavation, and the capacity to manage substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
While depth can vary by machine, pedestrian FSI grinders typically go several inches beneath the turf to fully halt regeneration. This leaves the earth smoothly level. Soon, fresh grass will quickly reclaim the space.
For jobs that involve re-planting, slabbing, or building over the old stump, our robust tracked equipment goes far deeper. First, outline your future ground plans to our team. Once you have done this, we will gladly advise you on the ideal machine for your required depth.
