Stump Grinders for Sale in Tillydrone
Whenever grinding is a steady source of revenue, purchasing a grinder removes recurring hire costs and means 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 enter our inventory.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Four models form the FSI pedestrian range, scaling up in output and capacity from the most lightweight to the heaviest.
Created as the most compact model, the B21 serves occasional users, garden care contractors, and operators needing occasional grinding alongside tree care. To progress further, the B22 and B28 models deliver increased engine power and heavier frames.
Want faster grinding? These machines use sharper cutters, making them the absolute dream for regular operators using equipment several days a month rather than once a fortnight!
As the premier pedestrian option within this range, the B38 caters to operators undertaking frequent grinding who need superior cutting power from a walk behind machine capable of matching light tracked equipment under the relevant conditions.
For arboricultural businesses acquiring their first dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 provides a strong balance of cost and capability. If you already tackle weekly projects, the B38 pedestrian machine is the ideal choice to ensure you never run out of power during any contract.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
The self-propelled range from FSI covers the D30, D60 and D74, with tracked or remote control versions available for the D30. This compact model serves as a excellent flexible option for users progressing from pedestrian machinery.
Add crawler tracks to handle difficult terrain and inclines, or choose the radio remote configuration if operator placement is important during your standard projects.
Set to improve your results? The D60 introduces a heavier, more powerful grinder built for commercial volume and substantial stumps! Meanwhile, the flagship D74 is built for high output contractors, councils, and operators tackling tough hardwood and wide cuts.
Our team will lead you by way of the important details of cutting wheel size, engine output, and weight. Precision is vital. Try not to buying excessive amounts or insufficient amounts.
Used stump grinders in Tillydrone
We offer reliable used stump grinders from FSI and additional manufacturers as stock arrives. First, each machine undergoes a detailed workshop inspection before being sold, where we check and honestly report on the cutting wheel, hydraulic status, and engine hours.
As a initial step, any unit requiring maintenance or new teeth undergoes this important work before we determine its cost on the floor.
Looking for your fleet? Buying used gear is a stellar move for tree surgeons who are adding another grinder, busy crews desiring a backup, or fresh startups needing practical kit without that massive new machine cost!
When buying a stump grinder in Tillydrone makes more sense than hiring
Choosing ownership represents the more economical economic path when your grinding is consistent, annual hiring weeks surpass the cost equivalent of a finance payment, or operations depend on having a grinder available at short notice.
For operating crews, ownership breeds a important familiarity. Staff grow faster and safer when operating the same grinder each day, a consistent pace that ultimately leads to triumphant seasonal figures.
Stump grinder hire in Tillydrone
Our leasing fleet offers FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders, so that you match the most suitable machine to the exact task. We thoroughly service every grinder between hires. We install sharp carbide teeth, check hydraulic levels and test the engine before any unit leaves the workshop.
You are not taking handover of a fatigued rental asset used on back-to-back jobs with used cutters and a slipping belt.
Our stump grinder hire Tillydrone fleet
For walk-behind tasks, we provide FSI walk-behind grinders perfectly suited for home gardens, domestic side access routes, and lighter commercial jobs where a tracked unit is not needed. These practical machines simply pass through standard 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 provide tracked self propelled FSI grinders for substantial projects, with radio remote configurations that leave operators safely clear of the cutting wheel. Tracked units are the correct choice for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and sites requiring multiple 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
Hiring is ideal for contractors with too little stump grinding volume to warrant buying, operators undertaking a one-off clearance project well beyond their usual capacity, and teams wishing to avoid committing capital in machinery used only for a short period annually.
Do you own a smaller pedestrian unit but from time to time pick up jobs needing a tracked grinder? Renting is the ultimate solution! Getting the larger kit for just a few days costs far less than buying a machine that sits idle all season.
Selecting a specialist specialist ensures you obtain the exact grinder needed for your task, instead of 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 is given only the elementary care afforded to a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Tillydrone FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Tillydrone?
Hire rates depend on machine measurements and the length of hire, while standard outlets providing small 13hp petrol machinery generally sit in the lowest market tier.
Putting money into professional-grade pedestrian FSI grinders requires a premium daily rate, yet they clear stumps with breathtaking speed. Swift work. Factoring in saved site hours makes up each clearance cheaper.
Tracked machinery with self propulsion secures the highest daily rate whilst providing the largest volume of cutting. Please contact 0141 775 9288 with your project specifications for an exact quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Operated on foot, pedestrian grinders require manual effort and guidance. These compact, slim machines are well suited for domestic gardens and confined housing spaces.
To begin, tracked grinders travel on hydraulic tracks, employing superior engines and larger cutting wheels for hardwood stumps and high volume contracts. Alternatively, pedestrian machines access tighter spots and deliver lower daily running costs.
Tracked machinery provides faster operation, more extensive subterranean excavation, and the ability to handle substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
While depth may vary by machine, pedestrian FSI grinders typically delve several inches beneath the turf to effectively halt regeneration. This leaves the earth beautifully level. Soon, fresh grass will eagerly reclaim the space.
Bigger tracked machines achieve deeper penetration, making them ideal when a cleared site is to be replanted, slabbed, or constructed upon. Once you provide your plans for the reclaimed ground, we will professionally advise on the model offering the most suitable cutting depth.
