Get matched with top leaf removal pros in Burwell, NE

Probably the most cost-efficient way to remove a tree stump is to use Epsom salts, which help accelerate the rotting process making it easier to remove by hand once nature has taken its course. Burning a tree stump doesn’t tend to cost much either, but is a riskier DIY method.

The cost to buy a stump grinder can fall anywhere between $1,450 and $19,800, with the majority of models priced below $3,000. However, grinders designed for construction or extensive commercial use might exceed $100,000 in cost. Prices vary based on the type of grinder, the brand, features, and other factors.

There are a few things you should look for in a stump removal company to make sure you’ll be satisfied with the results:

• Proper business licensing and insurance

• History of positive reviews

• Good rating with the Better Business Bureau

We also recommend asking any company you’re considering the following questions to help find the best value:

• Will you remove the roots as well as the stump?

• Will you haul away wood chips or large portions of the stump?

• What method will you use to remove the stump?

Coverage varies quite a bit by policy, but most homeowners' insurance policies will cover $500 to $1,000 of the cost of removing a tree. Additionally, if your tree causes damage to your property, like your house, many policies will cover some or all of the costs to repair the damage, depending on why the tree fell.
