Stump Grinding in Eastern CT | Stump Removal by a Licensed Arborist

Elliott Tree Service GiANT wheel loader with grapple in Connecticut

After the tree comes down, the stump stays behind — and a leftover stump gets in the way of mowing, planting, and enjoying your yard. Elliott Tree Service grinds stumps below grade across eastern Connecticut, so the spot can be replanted or reseeded and your lawn looks like the stump was never there.

Stump grinding is available as a standalone service or right after one of our removals — schedule both at once and take care of the whole job, tree and stump, in a single visit.

Tight backyard with no truck access? Where trucks can’t go, our 82 ft tracked lift crew’s ground equipment gets into backyards and tight spots, so almost no stump is out of reach.

The grindings are your call — we haul them away or leave them as fresh mulch for your beds. Either way, our GiANT compact wheel loader with grapple moves the material and cleans up with zero lawn damage.
