Why people take the stump out
Most stump calls are about space. The stump blocks the mower, sits in the middle of a lawn, or occupies the exact spot where the next tree should go. A planted tree needs open ground, and a stump with its root mass takes that ground up. Storm exposure in Asheboro is low, so most of our stump work is planned removals, not cleanup after a blowdown. That gives you time to think about what the spot should become before we start.
How the work gets done
We look at the stump and its surroundings first, then pick the approach to fit the size and the access. Equipment gets inspected before every use, and anything worn or damaged comes out of service. Hard hats and work-positioning lanyards are standard on our sites. If a job starts with climbing, the crew keeps a secure tie-in and uses approved fall protection. In an aerial lift, they tie off at the designated anchor point.
What it costs
Stump removal runs from $90 to $1,200 per stump. A small stump that is easy to reach sits at the low end. A large stump, or one with tight access, sits toward the high end. We price from what we see on the site, not from a description over the phone, so the number you get is for your stump.
What you get when it is done
When the stump is out, the spot is open. You can lay sod, plant a new tree, or put in a bed, and you will not be mowing around anything. If you plan to replant, tell us when we quote the job so we can talk through the ground before anything goes in.

Some of what that looks like in the field:
- Use chipper guards and emergency stops, stay clear of the in-feed chute, and never push material into the machine with hands or feet.
- Walk the site before work and identify power lines, damaged limbs, tree lean, nearby structures or traffic, and unstable ground.

Straight Answers to Common Questions
Verify insurance, ask for references, and confirm the crew will walk the site to identify power lines, lean, and hazards before cutting. Written bids should detail what is included, such as stump grinding ($90–$1,200) and debris hauling.
Tipping is optional. If the crew completes a difficult job safely and cleans up thoroughly, $20–$50 per worker is common. Many homeowners instead offer cold drinks or a positive review when the work matches the quoted $200–$5,000 price.
Obtain two or three written bids within the $200–$5,000 removal range. Ask whether stump grinding or hauling can be omitted to lower the price, or whether scheduling during slower months yields a discount. Never accept an offer that removes required safety steps.
