Stump Grinders for Sale in Ullapool
Why continue wasting funds on repeated hire fees when grinding is your trade? Having your own gear means it is always in your premises, ready for action! We supply the complete range of new FSI stump grinders, covering both pedestrian and self propelled options, plus used FSI and alternative leading brands as they arrive.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Looking for more choice? The FSI pedestrian range provides 4 excellent models, increasing in power and capacity from the most compact to the biggest!
As most compact and lightweight, the B21 works well for occasional users, garden maintenance contractors, and operators requiring a grinder for periodic tasks alongside routine tree work, whilst the B22 and B28 deliver higher engine output and weight.
Operating with a quicker grind and more aggressive cutters, they ideally suit the committed user who operates machinery several days a month rather than every fortnight.
As the top pedestrian option in this selection, the B38 is built for teams who work regularly. It provides impressive cutting power, comfortably comparable to light tracked equipment when utilised on the right projects.
Tree surgery firms buying their first stump grinder find the B22 or B28 provides an ideal mix of capability and price. The B38 fits operators managing weekly grinding projects who want a pedestrian machine designed to deliver sufficient capacity until the contract is concluded.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
FSI provides a self propelled range made up of the D30, D60 and D74, featuring optional tracked or remote control configurations on the D30. As the most compact of the range self propelled grinder, the D30 offers an effective, adaptable transition for professionals progressing from pedestrian machinery.
You can choose tracks for steep inclines and loose terrain, or select the radio remote configuration if operator positioning is crucial during your usual projects.
Opting for the D60 delivers a robust, more powerful grinder engineered for commercial volumes and more substantial stumps. The flagship D74 caters to high output contractors, councils, and specialists managing hard hardwood and very large diameter cuts.
We describe the distinctions in cutting wheel size, engine output and weight to make sure you do never get too much or less than you need.
Used stump grinders in Ullapool
We regularly procure used stump grinders from FSI and additional leading brands. Prior to retail, our technicians meticulously inspect every machine, ensuring the condition of the cutting wheel, hydraulic system performance, and cumulative engine hours are transparently verified and reported.
We complete all essential servicing and tooth replacements before we fix the price on the shop floor.
Looking to expand your fleet? Investing in used gear is a stellar move for tree surgeons looking to add another grinder, busy crews needing a backup, or fresh startups needing practical kit without that massive new machine cost!
When buying a stump grinder in Ullapool makes more sense than hiring
When does buying make total financial sense? It is when you are grinding constantly, renting for extra weeks than finance costs, or fully needing a grinder ready at a moment’s notice!
Equipment ownership delivers essential reliability for working crews. Regular acquaintance with a specific machine increases operator security and pace. Using the same grinder over the year yields clear productivity gains across the season.

Our stump grinder hire Ullapool fleet
Seeking pedestrian machinery? We offer impressive FSI pedestrian grinders suitable for private gardens, side paths in residential properties, and small commercial jobs where a heavy tracked unit is simply overkill! These manoeuvrable beasts easily slide through standard gates, help protect lawns from unsightly rutting, and comfortably clear stumps from 18 to 24 inches in diameter.
For more commissions, we supply tracked self propelled FSI grinders, featuring radio remote configurations that permit operators to remain securely distanced from the spinning cutting wheel. These tracked designs provide the best solution for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and locations demanding large-scale daily stump clearance. Furthermore, tracks effectively negotiate steep inclines, soft ground, and undulating terrain that would quickly destabilise a pedestrian alternative.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
How come buy when you can rent? Hiring is the ultimate option for operators without the consistent stump grinding volume to justify buying. It is ideal for contractors tackling an particularly large single project, or crews wanting to avoid locking in vital capital in seasonal machinery!
Hiring suits operators of a pedestrian unit who from time to time require a tracked grinder. Securing the larger machine for several days costs less than buying equipment that will remain unused for much of the season.
Selecting a specialist ensures you obtain the most suitable grinder for your particular task, rather than just taking whatever is to hand at a general depot. Buying a stump grinder from a chain dealing with pressure washers and floor sanders means the equipment receives the same routine care as a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Ullapool FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Ullapool?
Rental costs change with the physical scale of your machinery and the project duration. As expected, major suppliers supplying compact 13hp petrol options make up the most affordable pricing tier.
Professional pedestrian FSI grinders carry increased daily rates but clear stumps much more quickly. Because they save precious site time, they deliver a lower cost per stump.
Want the ideal cutting volume? Tracked self propelled machines are the most expensive the most daily but produce massive benefits! Call 0141 775 9288 with your job details for a proper quote.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Operated on foot, pedestrian grinders require manual effort and guidance. These light, slim machines are perfect for private gardens and restricted residential spaces.
To open, tracked grinders travel on hydraulic tracks, using higher-performance engines and bigger cutting wheels for hardwood stumps and larger-volume contracts. Conversely, pedestrian machines reach tighter areas and offer lower day-to-day running costs.
With crawling machines, you can work faster, go deeper underground, and deal with more substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
The depth level of your cut depends on the particular model. Pedestrian FSI grinders typically penetrate several inches underground, which reliably prevents regrowth and creates a level surface for recent lawn to flourish.
For jobs that involve replanting, slabbing, or construction over the old stump, our heavy-duty tracked equipment goes considerably deeper. To begin with, describe your future ground plans to our team. Once you have done this, we will gladly guide you on the ideal machine for your required depth.
