Stump Grinders for Sale in Northfield
When grinding forms a steady part of your livelihood, purchasing a grinder first does away with perpetual rent and moreover ensures the machine is set 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)
4 variants form the FSI pedestrian range, increasing in power and size from the smallest to the biggest.
The compact B21 serves intermittent users, garden maintenance contractors, and users needing a secondary grinder alongside regular tree work. The B22 and B28 models deliver increased engine performance and build.
Operating with a quicker grind and more assertive cutters, they perfectly suit the regular user who commands machinery several days a month rather than once a fortnight.
Searching for the largest pedestrian model in our range? Made for hard-working crews seeking real cutting power, the mighty B38 is a walk behind unit that readily rivals light tracked machinery on the right jobs!
For arboricultural businesses buying 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-propelled range from FSI includes the D30, D60, and D74, with track and remote-control options available for the D30. As the smallest model, this versatile grinder serves as the natural next move for contractors progressing from pedestrian machinery.
You can choose tracks for sharp inclines and unstable terrain, or select the radio remote configuration if operator positioning is essential during your usual projects.
Upgrading to the D60 provides a more substantial and sturdier grinder designed for commercial capacities and greater stump clearance. As the premier model in this series, the D74 supports high productivity contractors, local authorities, and specialists tackling dense hardwoods and wide diameter timber.
We outline the differences in cutting wheel size, engine output and overall weight to ensure you do not buy more than you need or too little.
Used stump grinders in Northfield
Do you require a reliable used stump grinder? We source excellent stock from FSI and other brands! Every machine is carefully workshop tested, giving you totally honest reports on the cutting wheel condition, the hydraulics, and engine hours with engine.
We carry out all necessary servicing and tooth replacements before we set the price on the sales floor.
Opting for secondhand machinery is a wise choice. It empowers arborists looking for a second grinder, working crews required to have peak season security, and up-and-coming businesses seeking capable kit without the heavy cost of buying new.
When buying a stump grinder in Northfield makes more sense than hiring
Investing in a personal grinder is perfect financial sense once the daily workload increases. Truly, once cumulative hire fees surpass finance payments, or sudden project demands require a grinder at a moment’s notice, ownership protects your future.
Owning equipment provides important consistency for working crews. Daily acquaintance with a specific machine boosts operator protection and speed. Using the same grinder throughout the year yields clear productivity gains across the season.

Our stump grinder hire Northfield fleet
For manual applications, we provide FSI walk-behind grinders perfectly suited for private gardens, side accesses at residential properties, and more modest commercial tasks where a tracked unit is not needed. These useful machines simply pass through typical garden gates. They also glide gently over your lawn without causing turf damage, whilst reliably tackling stumps between 18 and 24 inches in diameter, depending on the relevant wood species.
We rent tracked self propelled FSI grinders for major projects, offering 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 several 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
Hiring works for teams whose stump grinding volume does not yet justify an outright buy, contractors undertaking a one-off clearance beyond their standard scope, and companies wishing to avoid locking up capital in machinery that is only used around a few weeks annually.
Ultimately, leasing advantages those operating smaller walk-behind units when they occasionally win projects requiring a tracked grinder. Securing bulkier kit for only a few days is extremely affordable, saving them from investing in a machine set to sit unused all season.
Relying on a focused specialist ensures you secure the ideal grinder for the job, rather than whatever sits on a standard hire shelf. It is a important distinction. Getting a stump grinder from an outlet handling pressure washers and floor sanders means your essential kit only is given the minimal care given to a muddy cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Northfield FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Northfield?
Hire prices depend on equipment measurements and the length of hire, while commonplace outlets providing compact 13hp petrol machinery usually fall into the lowest market tier.
While specialist pedestrian FSI grinders carry a greater daily rental rate, their superior operating speed provides swift clearance, ultimately cutting the total expenditure per stump once time on site is calculated.
Want the ideal cutting volume? Tracked self propelled machines cost the most daily but produce massive results! Call 0141 775 9288 with your job details for a accurate quote.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Pedestrian grinders are manually controlled machines guided by an operator walking behind. Their light and compact nature is ideally suited to domestic gardens and limited domestic environments.
Powered by hydraulic tracks, tracked grinders employ superior engines and bigger cutting wheels to manage hardwood stumps on high volume contracts, whilst pedestrian machines get to restricted areas at a reduced daily cost.
Tracked machines work with swift efficiency, digging lower underground to tackle the largest and toughest hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
The depth of your cut depends on the particular model. Pedestrian FSI grinders usually reach several inches underground, which reliably prevents regrowth and leaves a level surface for recent lawn to flourish.
Are you looking to plant again, cover or construct over the cleared spot? Our larger tracked machines go much deeper! Just tell us what is going there next and we will advise the most suitable cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Northfield?
