Stump Grinding and Removal in Boise, ID

Get Rid of Unsightly and Hazardous Tree Stumps

Tree removal is only half the job. Without stump removal, you’re left with a tripping hazard, a magnet for pests, and an eyesore in your yard. At Terry’s Tree Services Inc, we provide professional stump grinding and removal services across Boise and surrounding communities.


With more than 35 years of experience, we have the equipment and expertise to grind stumps below grade, remove roots if needed, and leave your property clean and ready for replanting, reseeding, or construction.

Why Remove a Tree Stump?

Leaving stumps behind may seem harmless, but they can create long-term problems:

Curb Appeal – A clean, stump-free yard looks more polished and attractive.

Our stump grinding service is the safest, fastest, and most cost-effective way to eliminate these problems.

Our Stump Grinding Process

Every property and stump is unique. Our process is designed for efficiency and thorough results:

Site Inspection – We assess the stump’s size, species, location, and surrounding landscape.

Equipment Setup – Using commercial-grade grinders, we position equipment to access the stump safely.

Grinding – Stumps are ground 6–12 inches below grade (deeper if requested) to ensure they won’t regrow.

Root Management – On request, we can grind large roots or perform full root system removal.

Clean-Up – Mulch from the grinding is either hauled away or left behind for your landscaping use.

Finishing – The area is leveled and prepared for reseeding, planting, or other yard improvements.

We had several stumps left after tree removals. Terry’s ground them out in just a couple of hours and left the area ready for sod. Great local company.

Stump Grinding FAQs

  • How deep do you grind stumps?

    Typically 6–12 inches below grade. For replanting or construction, we can grind deeper as needed.

  • Will the stump come back?

    No. Once a stump is ground properly, regrowth is rare. If roots remain, we can perform additional removal.

  • What happens to the mulch from grinding?

    Most clients use the mulch in landscaping. If you prefer, we can haul it away.

  • Can you remove stumps close to buildings or fences?

    Yes. Our compact grinders allow us to work in tight spaces without damaging structures.

  • How much does stump grinding cost?

    Pricing depends on stump size, depth, and access. We offer free, no-obligation estimates.
