FAQs
-
After stump grinding, the remaining wood chips are typically left on-site as mulch. This helps with cleanup and gives you a natural material that can be reused in garden beds or landscaping areas. Stump Works’ primary service is stump grinding and site cleanup, which includes grinding the stump and leaving the mulch behind.
If you’d like the wood chips hauled away and removed, this service is available for an additional fee. Just let us know your preference when scheduling your stump removal or stump grinding in Athens, GA, and we’ll make sure everything is handled the way you want.
