Stump Grinders for Sale in Old Town
When grinding represents a reliable source of revenue, purchasing a grinder eliminates recurring hire costs and ensures the machine is on your premises for prompt 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 come into our inventory.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
The FSI pedestrian range offers four separate models, which gradually increase in both power and capacity from the smallest to the most substantial.
The compact B21 serves occasional users, garden maintenance professionals, and operators requiring a secondary grinder alongside main tree work. The B22 and B28 models offer enhanced engine power and build.
Want faster grinding? These machines run sharper cutters, which makes them the absolute dream for busy operators using equipment a few days a month rather than once a fortnight!
As the premier pedestrian option in this series, the B38 is designed for teams who use it often. It delivers impressive cutting power, comfortably rivalling light tracked equipment when utilised on the right projects.
When tree surgery businesses add their first dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 provides a beautiful balance between capability and cost. A wise beginning. However, weekly specialists need the mighty B38, so that this pedestrian machine never runs out of capacity halfway through a contract.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
FSI provides a self propelled range made up of the D30, D60 and D74, with optional tracked or remote control configurations on the D30. As the most compact of the range self propelled grinder, the D30 delivers an excellent, adaptable transition for professionals moving from pedestrian machinery.
Looking to overcome soft ground and slopes? Simply add tracks, or select the radio remote configuration for ideal operator positioning!
Climbing to the D60 brings a heavier, much stronger grinder built to tackle vast commercial workloads and substantial stumps. Afterwards reigns the D74, our flagship flagship built for busy contractors, councils, and operators confronting challenging hardwood and big diameter cuts.
Do you want to steer clear of buying the unsuitable model? We can lead you through every cutting wheel size, engine output, and weight to help secure the best match!
Used stump grinders in Old Town
We provide used stump grinders from FSI and other manufacturers as stock arrives. Our team examines every machine prior to sale, delivering transparent reports on cutting wheel condition, hydraulic health, and engine hours.
As a first step, any unit requiring maintenance or fresh teeth undergoes this essential work before we establish its price on the site.
Buying used equipment represents a very wise option for arborists acquiring an additional grinder, for teams needing a backup machine during busy periods, and for emerging enterprises seeking capable machinery without significant capital outlay.
When buying a stump grinder in Old Town makes more sense than hiring
When does buying make full financial sense? It is when you are working continuously, renting for additional weeks than finance costs, or really needing a grinder ready at very short notice!
Want improve team reliability? Taking ownership is key! When operators use the same grinder daily, they become quicker and safer, delivering significant productivity gains that look absolutely fantastic in your final seasonal figures!
Stump grinder hire in Old Town
We supply FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders within our hire range, allowing you to pick the exact machinery necessary for your specific task rather than compromising with unsuitable equipment. Prior to dispatch, each grinder undergoes careful servicing, during which we install sharp carbide teeth, review hydraulic levels, and test the engine.
You will not receive a fatigued rental machine that has already carried out multiple heavy-duty contracts this month with worn cutters and a loose belt.
Our stump grinder hire Old Town fleet
For manual jobs, we supply FSI walk-behind grinders ideally suited for private gardens, domestic side access routes, and lighter commercial jobs where a tracked unit is not required. These useful machines simply pass through typical garden gates. They also move smoothly over your lawn without causing turf damage, whilst reliably tackling stumps between 18 and 24 inches in diameter, depending on the relevant wood species.
To manage extensive projects, we offer tracked, self propelled FSI grinders, including models featuring wireless remote controls that allow operators to maintain a safe distance from the active cutting wheel. These tracked machines make the best choice for housing developments, local authority roadside projects, golf course clearances, hardwood extractions, and high volume daily stump removal. Additionally, their tracks successfully navigate steep inclines, soft earth and challenging terrains that would easily destabilise standard pedestrian machinery.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Rental ideally serves operators whose stump grinding volume cannot yet justify a purchase, contractors carrying out a one-off clearance far beyond their usual scale, and crews choosing not to lock up important capital in equipment used only a few weeks annually.
For operators of a more compact pedestrian unit, hiring is an ideal option when obtaining occasional jobs that require a tracked grinder. Choosing a temporary rental for this heavier equipment is far more economical than purchasing machinery that simply sits idle.
Choosing a dedicated specialist guarantees you get the exact grinder required for your project, instead of simply accepting whatever is left at a standard hire depot. Obtain a stump grinder from a chain handling pressure washers and floor sanders, and the machine is given only the elementary care afforded to a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Old Town FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Old Town?
Equipment size and rental duration dictate hire tariffs. Standard hire chains supplying compact 13hp petrol units define the lowest market tier.
Putting money into professional grade pedestrian FSI grinders demands a greater daily rate, yet they clear stumps with breathtaking speed. Swift work. Factoring in saved site hours renders each clearance less costly.
Although tracked self propelled machines command the highest daily price, they deliver the highest volume of cutting. Please get in touch with 0141 775 9288 with your project details for an accurate quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Operated on foot, pedestrian grinders require hand pushing and guidance. These lightweight, slim machines are ideal for home gardens and restricted residential spaces.
Tracked grinders use hydraulic tracks to drive themselves, fitted with stronger engines and larger cutting wheels to clear hardwood stumps on large-scale contracts. Manual machines work in tight spaces and cost less per day daily.
Tracked offers greater performance, delivers more effective subterranean penetration, and successfully tackles substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
How far down can you go? It depends on your choice of system! Pedestrian FSI grinders plunge inches underground to halt regrowth, producing a evenly levelled plot ready for fresh grass to thrive.
Are you planning to replant, pave or develop over the cleared spot? Our bigger tracked machines go much further! Just let us what is going there next and we will advise the best cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Old Town?
