Stump Grinders for Sale in Partick
When grinding provides your main income, purchasing a machine cuts out ongoing rental costs and makes sure it is in your yard ready for action. We offer new FSI stump grinders across the entire pedestrian and self propelled range. We also stock used machines from FSI and other major brands as they arrive through trade.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Characterised by four separate models, the FSI pedestrian portfolio scales in output and capacity from the most compact to the biggest.
The compact B21 caters for occasional users, garden maintenance professionals, and users needing a back-up grinder alongside regular tree work. The B22 and B28 models deliver enhanced engine performance and build.
These devices provide quicker grinding with slightly more assertive cutters, and which ideally suits operators operating the machinery several times per month rather than fortnightly.
The B38 is the biggest pedestrian model in the range, built for crews who grind daily, need greater cutting power, and need a walk behind unit that matches lighter tracked machines on suitable projects.
For tree surgery enterprises investing in their inaugural dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 offers an excellent blend between output and cost. Alternatively the B38 presents a stronger choice for contractors carrying out weekly stump grinding who want a pedestrian machine guaranteed to maintain ample capacity throughout demanding commercial agreements.
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-sized model, this multi-purpose grinder serves as the ideal next move for contractors moving up from pedestrian machinery.
Include specialised tracks to tackle steep inclines and unstable terrain, or select the radio remote configuration when operator positioning guides your everyday projects.
Climbing to the D60 delivers a more substantial, much stronger grinder crafted to tackle extensive commercial workloads and sizeable stumps. Afterwards reigns the D74, our top flagship designed for high-output contractors, councils, and operators confronting formidable hardwood and large-diameter cuts.
We describe the distinctions in cutting wheel size, engine output and weight to help ensure you do never purchase too much or less than necessary.

Do you require a quality used stump grinder? We provide excellent stock from FSI and other brands! Every machine is thoroughly workshop tested, giving you totally honest reports on cutting wheel condition, the hydraulics, and hour meter readings with engine.
We perform all required servicing and tooth replacements before we set the price on the showroom floor.
Selecting pre-owned machinery is a sensible step for several reasons. It helps arborists to secure an extra grinder, provides teams with essential backup capability during peak periods, and helps new businesses to buy reliable kit without expensive upfront costs.
When buying a stump grinder in Partick makes more sense than hiring
Buying becomes a wiser financial choice if you use a grinder regularly, rent for longer periods annually than finance payments cost, or must have a grinder immediately available.
Having equipment remains crucial for workforce continuity, as personnel build greater efficiency and safety through daily contact with a single asset, yielding measurable seasonal efficiency gains from utilising that dedicated grinder throughout the year.
Stump grinder hire in Partick
To help you pick the ideal 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 thoroughly prepare every machine before dispatch, ensuring sharp carbide teeth are fitted, hydraulic levels are checked, and the engine is fully tested.

Our stump grinder hire Partick fleet
Our pedestrian range features FSI walk behind grinders tailored for domestic gardens, narrow residential access, and smaller commercial tasks where tracked machinery is not required. Those agile units readily traverse typical garden gates, protect lawns from turf rutting, and readily tackle stumps up to 18 to 24 inches in diameter, depending on the species.
For larger commissions, we source tracked self propelled FSI grinders, with radio remote configurations that permit operators to remain securely distanced from the spinning cutting wheel. These tracked designs provide the ideal solution for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and locations demanding large-scale daily stump clearance. In addition, tracks effectively negotiate steep inclines, soft ground, and undulating terrain that would easily destabilise a pedestrian alternative.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Leasing is ideal for these three groups, including operators with limited 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 brief rental for this larger equipment is far more economical than purchasing machinery that otherwise just sits idle.
Selecting a focused specialist ensures you obtain the exact grinder required for your task, rather than simply settling for whatever is left at a standard hire depot. Hire a stump grinder from a chain dealing with pressure washers and floor sanders, and the machine receives only the minimal care afforded to a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Partick FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Partick?
Rental rates vary on equipment size and the duration of rental, while standard outlets offering small 13hp petrol machinery usually occupy the lowest market tier.
While dedicated pedestrian FSI grinders command a higher daily rental rate, their superior operating speed provides rapid clearance, ultimately reducing the cumulative expenditure per stump once time on site is calculated.
Whilst tracked self propelled machines command the highest daily rate, they offer the greatest volume of cutting. Please contact 0141 775 9288 along with your project details for an precise quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Users manually push and steer pedestrian grinders. These lightweight tools perform well in 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 volume contracts. Walk-behind machines reach tight spaces and cost less daily.
Tracked machinery speeds up operations, penetrates more deeply underground, and extracts more substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
The depth of your cut depends on the relevant model. Pedestrian FSI grinders usually penetrate several inches underground, which reliably prevents regrowth and prepares a level surface for new lawn to flourish.
Larger-sized tracked machines achieve deeper penetration, making them particularly suitable when a cleared site is to be replanted, slabbed, or constructed upon. Once you outline your details for the reclaimed ground, we will carefully advise on the model offering the most suitable cutting depth.
