Iowa Lawn Pro provides top quality lawn maintenance and superior customer service to the Des Moines Metro. Besides providing full service packages, we also aid customers who want to handle some of their own but want help with other maintenance. Some examples of this are fertilizer applications, mosquito treatments, full service leaf cleanup, curbside leaf pickup, or snow removal.

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.

The average cost of tree removal is $750, though prices can range from $200 to $2,000, depending on factors like the tree’s size and species. Some species, such as aspen or pine, have complex root systems that can drive up the cost of removal. Aside from planting the tree itself, you’ll see additional costs from obtaining a permit, cleaning up the area, and removing debris. Additionally, plan to budget an extra $100 to $150 for stump removal.

Trimming or removing trees promotes safety, prevents interference with structures or utilities, and enhances the aesthetic and health of the property landscape.

You don’t always need a permit to grind a stump, but you might need one depending on your location and the stump’s surroundings. Permits are often needed if the stump is part of a protected tree species, near public areas or utility lines, or close to environmentally sensitive zones like wetlands. Some cities also regulate noise and work hours. Always check local rules before grinding, and contact your city or county office if you're unsure.

Signs include dead branches, growth over structures, diseases, pests, or roots impacting hardscapes.
