Stump Grinders for Sale in Oxton
When grinding forms a steady part of your livelihood, purchasing a grinder first removes perpetual rent and secondly makes sure 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 provide pre-owned machines from FSI and other premium brands as they enter our stock.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
The FSI pedestrian range offers four different models, which gradually grow in both power and capacity from the most compact to the largest.
Designed as the smallest option, the B21 works well for occasional-use operators, garden maintenance contractors, and professionals requiring a grinder for occasional tasks as well as broader arboricultural duties. In sequence, the B22 and B28 offer increased engine power and overall weight.
Operating with a quicker grind and more aggressive cutters, they well suit the regular user who uses machinery a few days a month rather than once a fortnight.
As the biggest pedestrian option you can choose, the B38 is designed for operators who work on a frequent basis, requiring enhanced cutting capabilities and a walk behind unit that effectively matches compact tracked machinery in the right conditions.
When tree surgery businesses bring in their first dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 delivers a fine blend between capability and cost. A wise beginning. But, 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)
Looking for something beyond walk-behind kit? FSI’s versatile self propelled family spans the D30, D60, and D74, offering track and remote control options on the D30! This compact grinder is the ideal all-rounder for forward-thinking contractors.
Looking to conquer soft ground and slopes? Just add tracks, or select the radio remote configuration for optimal operator positioning!
Selecting the D60 secures a robust, higher-powered grinder engineered for commercial volumes and larger stumps. The leading D74 serves high capacity contractors, councils, and specialists managing hard hardwood and very large diameter cuts.
We will carefully guide you over the variations in cutting wheel dimensions, engine power, and total weight, helping to ensure you won’t end up making an inappropriate purchase.
Used stump grinders in Oxton
Do you need a well-maintained used stump grinder? We provide excellent stock from FSI and other brands! Every machine is thoroughly workshop tested, giving you fully honest reports on the cutting wheel condition, hydraulic health, and hours with engine.
Does a machine require fresh teeth or a thorough service? We carry out all that essential work before the cost is ever set out on the floor!
Choosing secondhand machinery is a smart choice. It helps arborists looking for a second grinder, occupied crews seeking peak season security, and up-and-coming businesses requiring capable kit without the heavy outlay of buying new.
When buying a stump grinder in Oxton makes more sense than hiring
Investing in a personal grinder makes clear financial sense once the daily workload increases. Really, when cumulative hire fees outpace finance payments, or sudden project demands mean you need a grinder at very short notice, ownership supports your future.
For operating teams, possession breeds a important acquaintance. Operators grow swifter and more secure when operating the identical grinder daily, a steady routine that eventually leads to triumphant seasonal figures.
Stump grinder hire in Oxton
To help you choose the most suitable machine for your particular task rather than making an unsuitable unit to do the work, our hire fleet provides FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders. We systematically prepare every machine before dispatch, ensuring sharp carbide teeth are fitted, hydraulic levels are checked, and the engine is fully tested.
You definitely will not take away an overused hire yard model that has completed six jobs this month with unsharp cutters and a failing belt!
Our stump grinder hire Oxton fleet
For pedestrian operations, we rent FSI walk-behind grinders ideal for home gardens, tight residential side access, and small commercial tasks where a tracked unit is unnecessary. These machines readily pass through standard garden gates, keep safe lawns from rutting due to their low weight, and tackle stumps from 18 to 24 inches in diameter depending on the species.
We rent tracked self propelled FSI grinders for major projects, with radio remote configurations that allow 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 quickly overturn a pedestrian unit.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Leasing is ideal for these three groups, including operators with low stump grinding workloads, contractors managing a major unique clearance, and crews preferring not to tie up capital in equipment they only require for a few weeks annually.
For operators of a more compact pedestrian unit, renting is an excellent option when taking on occasional jobs that require a tracked grinder. Selecting a temporary rental for this larger equipment is far more economical than purchasing machinery that otherwise sits idle.
Trusting a dedicated specialist means you secure the ideal grinder for the job, rather than anything that is remains on a standard hire shelf. It is a important distinction. Sourcing a stump grinder from an outlet that handles pressure washers and floor sanders means your essential kit only is given the rudimentary care given to a muddy cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Oxton FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Oxton?
The equipment size and rental duration determine hire tariffs. Standard hire chains supplying compact 13hp petrol units define the lowest market tier.
While dedicated pedestrian FSI grinders carry a greater daily rental rate, their enhanced operating speed provides quick clearance, ultimately reducing the cumulative expenditure per stump once time on site is calculated.
Tracked machinery featuring self propulsion secures the highest daily rate whilst providing the largest volume of cutting. Please get in touch with 0141 775 9288 with your project details for an precise quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Pedestrian grinders are hand-operated machines guided by an operator following behind. Their small, compact nature is perfectly suited to garden areas and limited domestic environments.
To start, tracked grinders move forward on hydraulic tracks, utilising superior engines and larger cutting wheels for hard-wood stumps and high-volume contracts. Alternatively, pedestrian machines reach tighter spots and deliver lower daily running costs.
The 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?
Depth capacities vary by model. Pedestrian FSI grinders remove material a few inches below the ground level, preventing regrowth and creating a flat surface ready for new grass.
For jobs that involve replanting, slabbing, or building over the old stump, our robust tracked equipment goes considerably deeper. Initially, outline your future ground plans to our team. Once you have done this, we will readily recommend you on the ideal machine for your required depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Oxton?
