Stump Grinders for Sale in Oldtown
Whenever grinding represents a steady source of revenue, purchasing a grinder removes recurring hire costs and means 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 come into our inventory.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Characterised by four distinct models, the FSI pedestrian portfolio scales in capacity and power from the smallest to the largest.
Created to be the most space-efficient option, the B21 is ideal for intermittent operators, garden maintenance contractors, and professionals requiring a grinder for occasional tasks together with broader arboricultural duties. Sequentially, the B22 and B28 provide increased engine power and overall weight.
Providing accelerated grinding capabilities together with marginally more aggressive cutting edges, this machinery well accommodates professionals who operate their equipment a number of times monthly rather than on a two weekly schedule.
Looking for the biggest pedestrian model in our range? Made for dedicated crews seeking serious cutting power, the mighty B38 is a walk behind unit that comfortably compares with light track machinery on the right jobs!
For tree surgery enterprises buying their initial dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 offers an excellent blend between performance and expense. As an alternative the B38 represents a superior choice for contractors undertaking weekly stump grinding who require a pedestrian machine designed to maintain ample capacity throughout demanding commercial agreements.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
The self driven range from FSI encompasses the D30, D60 and D74, with tracked or remote control versions available for the D30. This smallest model acts as a versatile flexible option for operators transitioning from pedestrian machinery.
Looking to conquer soft ground and slopes? Simply add tracks, or select the radio remote configuration for optimal operator positioning!
Initially, upgrading to the D60 delivers a more substantial, hardier machine designed for commercial scales and substantial stumps. After that, the D74 represents the premier model in this collection, designed for productive contractors, local councils, and specialists tackling tough hardwood and wide diameter timber.
We will walk you through the variations in cutting wheel size, engine output, and weight to ensure you do never buy more than you need or insufficiently.
Used stump grinders in Oldtown
We provide quality used stump grinders from FSI and additional manufacturers as stock is available. First, each machine undergoes a comprehensive workshop inspection before purchase, where we inspect and clearly report on the cutting wheel, hydraulic health, and engine hours.
Should a machine require new teeth or a service, that work is always finished before any price is officially established upon the showroom floor.
Purchasing used equipment is a highly prudent option for arborists seeking an extra grinder, for teams wanting a contingency machine during high-demand periods, and for new enterprises looking for capable machinery without substantial capital outlay.
When buying a stump grinder in Oldtown makes more sense than hiring
Putting money into ownership represents the superior economic path when your grinding is consistent, annual hiring weeks are greater than the cost equivalent of a finance payment, or operations need having a grinder available at short notice.
Possession is crucial for teams requiring uniformity. Staff attain better throughput and security on regularly used machinery, meaning the efficiency benefits of operating the same grinder all year are very apparent in seasonal performance data.

Our leasing fleet provides FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders, ensuring you choose the most suitable machine to the exact task. We fully maintain every grinder between hires. We install sharp carbide teeth, check hydraulic levels and test the engine before any unit exits the workshop.

Our stump grinder hire Oldtown fleet
For walk-behind operations, we supply FSI walk behind grinders perfectly suited to residential gardens, side access routes, and smaller commercial tasks where tracked machinery remains unnecessary. These compact 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.
To tackle more extensive projects, we provide tracked self propelled FSI grinders, including remote controlled systems which help ensure the operator remains securely clear of the cutting wheel during operation. These tracked machinery is the most suitable solution for residential developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and any site where you must extract numerous 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
Hiring is best for businesses with insufficient stump grinding volume to justify purchasing, operators carrying out a unusual clearance project greatly exceeding their usual capacity, and operators wishing to steer clear of locking away capital in machinery used only for a few weeks annually.
In the end, hiring advantages operators running more modest pedestrian units when they sometimes win projects requiring a tracked grinder. Getting bulkier kit for only short periods is very economical, saving them from purchasing a machine set to stay idle for the whole season.
Choosing a specialist guarantees you get the precise grinder for the job, rather than what is left at a general depot. Hire a stump grinder from chains that stock pressure washers and floor sanders, and your equipment gets the same routine maintenance as their cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Oldtown FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Oldtown?
The equipment size and rental duration dictate hire tariffs. Standard hire chains supplying compact 13hp petrol units represent the lowest market tier.
While premier pedestrian FSI grinders command steeper daily rates, their swift operation cuts onsite time, leaving the final cost for each individual stump considerably more economical.
While crawler machines command a higher daily rate, they deliver unrivalled cutting volume. This is real efficiency. Call 0141 775 9288 with your job details for an accurate quote.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Operated on foot, pedestrian grinders require manual effort and steering. These compact, narrow machines are ideal for home gardens and limited residential areas.
Propelled by hydraulic tracks, tracked grinders utilise superior engine power and larger cutting wheels to manage hardwood stumps and larger contracts, whilst pedestrian machines offer better accessibility at a more affordable daily cost.
With tracked machines, you can work faster, penetrate further underground, and handle bigger hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
Whilst the cutting depth varies by individual model, pedestrian FSI grinders generally cut down a number of inches below the top layer, preventing regrowth and ensuring a level area for future grass establishment.
Larger tracked machines achieve deeper penetration, making them well suited when a cleared site is to be replanted, slabbed, or constructed upon. Once you share your plans for the reclaimed ground, we will expertly advise on the model offering the right cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Oldtown?
When previously used FSI and alternative brand machinery arrives via trade in, we fully check and service every unit, then provide an honest inspection report.
As our inventory fluctuates on a weekly basis, kindly let us know us if you want to be alerted upon the arrival of a specific model, and we will happily record your interest.
What other brands of stump grinder do you service?
Regardless of where your machine was purchased, we expertly service, maintain and repair FSI, Predator, Carlton, Vermeer, and Bandits stump grinders. Our specialist workshop offers scheduled servicing, fault repairs, cutting wheel rebuilds, and parts supply.
