• The size of the stump. This determines grinding time. Price is calculated by measuring the diameter across the widest point of the stump at ground level, this includes any exposed roots that will also be ground down. (See picture)
• Access to the stump. If extra prep time is needed to prepare the site or access the site, extra fees could be incurred.
• The clean-up. DeJong will clean up the job site and remove debris for a fee or leave that for you to do yourself.
