Stump Grinders for Sale in Kelvindale
When grinding is a consistent source of revenue, purchasing a grinder removes recurring hire costs and means the machine is on your premises for immediate deployment. We provide new FSI stump grinders throughout the entire pedestrian and self propelled range, alongside used machines from FSI and other leading brands as they come into our inventory.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Featuring four distinct versions, the FSI pedestrian portfolio progresses in both output and capacity from the lightest model to the greatest one.
The compact-sized B21 caters for intermittent users, garden maintenance contractors, and operators requiring a secondary grinder alongside main tree work. The B22 and B28 models offer increased engine power and mass.
Want speedier grinding? Those machines run more precise cutters, which makes them an ideal choice for regular operators using equipment a few days a month rather than once a fortnight!
The B38 is the biggest pedestrian model in the range, built for teams who grind day after day, want greater cutting power, and need a walk behind unit that rivals light tracked machines on suitable projects.
When tree surgery businesses introduce their first dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 delivers a fine balance between capability and cost. A sensible beginning. But, weekly specialists need the mighty B38, making sure this pedestrian machine never runs out of capacity halfway through a contract.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
Throughout FSI’s self-propelled family, the D30, D60, and D74 lead the way, offering track and remote-control choices on the D30. This compact gem is the most compact of the self-propelled grinders. Certainly, it is a brilliant all-rounder for contractors ready to outgrow pedestrian gear.
Looking to overcome soft ground and slopes? Just add tracks, or opt for the radio remote configuration for ideal operator positioning!
Opting for the D60 secures a more substantial, stronger grinder engineered for commercial volumes and more substantial stumps. The leading D74 serves high capacity contractors, councils, and specialists managing dense hardwood and very large diameter cuts.
We will meticulously guide you through the variations in cutting wheel dimensions, engine power, and total weight, so that you won’t end up making an incorrect purchase.
Used stump grinders in Kelvindale
Do you need a well-maintained used stump grinder? We supply fantastic stock from FSI and other brands! Every machine is rigorously workshop tested, giving you fully honest reports on the cutting wheel condition, hydraulic condition, and hours with engine.
As a first step, any unit demanding servicing or fresh teeth undergoes this essential work before we determine its value on the site.
Buying preowned equipment is a particularly practical strategy for arborists adding a second grinder, teams needing a backup machine for peak periods, or new enterprises looking for capable kit without the capital expense of brand new machinery.
When buying a stump grinder in Kelvindale makes more sense than hiring
When does buying make complete financial sense? It is when you are grinding all the time, renting for extra weeks than finance costs, or absolutely needing a grinder ready at a moment’s notice!
Equipment ownership delivers vital continuity for work crews. Daily experience with a specific machine improves operator safety and pace. Using the same grinder over the year brings clear productivity gains across the season.
Stump grinder hire in Kelvindale
To help you pick the most suitable machine for your specific task rather than forcing an unsuitable unit to do the work, our hire fleet provides FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders. We thoroughly prepare every machine before dispatch, ensuring sharp carbide teeth are fitted, hydraulic levels are checked, and the engine is fully tested.
You will not receive an exhausted hire yard machine used up by multiple monthly contracts, complete with worn cutters and a slackening belt.
Our stump grinder hire Kelvindale fleet
For pedestrian operations, we provide FSI walk-behind grinders ideal for home gardens, tight residential side access, and small commercial tasks where a tracked unit is unnecessary. They easily pass through standard garden gates, protect lawns from rutting due to their low weight, and tackle stumps from 18 to 24 inches in diameter depending on the species.
When confronting substantial works, we hire tracked self propelled FSI grinders featuring radio remote technology to leave operators securely distanced from the active cutting wheel. These tracked machines are the ultimate choice for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and any site requiring detailed daily stump clearing. Crucially, rugged tracks smoothly conquer steep slopes and soft terrain that would quickly topple a standard pedestrian unit.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Renting serves operators whose stump grinding volume does not yet justify an outright buy, firms undertaking a one-off clearance beyond their standard scope, and companies wishing to avoid locking up capital in machinery that is only utilised around a few weeks per year.
Basically, leasing benefits people managing compact walk-behind units when they periodically win projects needing a tracked grinder. Obtaining heavier kit for mere short periods is very affordable, saving them from buying a machine likely to remain idle for the whole season.
Using a dedicated expert ensures you get the right grinder required for your specific task, rather than merely choosing whatever is on offer at a typical rental outlet. When you rent a stump grinder from a major chain managing pressure washers and floor sanders too, your machinery receives only the rudimentary maintenance allocated to a typical cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Kelvindale FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Kelvindale?
How do rental fees work? Costs depend entirely on machine size and your length of hire! Everyday hire chains with small 13hp petrol units typically occupy the budget end.
Even though premier pedestrian FSI grinders attract greater daily rates, their fast operation reduces onsite time, leaving the final cost for each individual stump considerably more economical.
Tracked self-propelled machines command the highest daily rate but offer the maximum cutting volume. Call 0141 775 9288 along with your project specifications for an accurate estimate.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Steered by hand, pedestrian grinders are operated on foot. These slender, lightweight machines skillfully conquer confined residential spaces and domestic gardens.
Propelled by hydraulic tracks, massive tracked grinders require high-capacity engines and larger cutting wheels, easily conquering tough hardwood stumps and demanding high volume contracts. Meanwhile, nimble pedestrian machines access restricted spaces at a lower daily rate.
Tracked machinery accelerates work, penetrates more deeply 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 a few inches below surface level, preventing regrowth and producing a flat surface ready for new grass.
Are you considering to plant again, pave or construct over the cleared spot? Our larger tracked machines can reach much lower! Just inform us what is going there next and we will advise the most suitable cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Kelvindale?
We check and carry out servicing on all part exchange FSI and other brand machines in our workshop, then sell them with an accurate condition report.
