Get Rid of That Stump for Good

Old tree stumps are more than an eyesore — they can be a trip hazard, harbor insects and disease, and sprout new shoots that require constant maintenance. Royal Tree Service grinds stumps quickly and cleanly so you can reclaim the space.

How Stump Grinding Works

Our commercial-grade stump grinders chip the stump and surface roots down 8–12 inches below grade. The resulting wood chips can be left as mulch or hauled away. We fill the hole with grindings, and within a season you can sod, plant, or landscape right over the spot.

  • No waiting months for chemicals to work
  • No harmful chemicals near your lawn, garden, or well

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does stump grinding cost in Sioux Falls?

Most stumps cost $75–$300 depending on size and access. Multiple stumps are discounted. Free estimates always.

How deep does stump grinding go?

We grind 8–12 inches below grade — deep enough to sod over or landscape. Deeper grinding available for construction projects.

What happens to the wood chips?

We can leave the grindings as natural mulch in the hole, or haul everything away for an additional fee.

Will the stump grow back after grinding?

No. Once the stump and surface roots are ground away, the tree cannot regenerate. Some species may send up shoots for a season, which are easy to pull.
