Remove a Tree Stump

Step 1: Gather Your Materials


• Shovel

• Axe

• Drill

• Chainsaw

• Chisel

• Rope

• Wheelbarrow

• Protective Gear (gloves, eye protection, face mask, etc.)


Step 2: Dig Around the Stump


• Begin by digging around the perimeter of the stump, creating a deep trench.


• Make sure to get as close to the base of the stump as you can.


• It is important to get as much of the roots exposed as possible to make it easier to remove the stump.


Step 3: Cut the Roots


• Once the roots are exposed, use an axe or a chainsaw to cut away the roots one by one.


• Once all of the roots are cut, the stump should become loose and easier to remove.


Step 4: Drill Holes in the Stump


• Use a drill with a long bit to make holes in the top of the stump, about 3-4” deep.


• This will help to weaken the wood, making it easier to remove.


Step 5: Chisel Away at the Stump


• Once the holes are drilled, use a chisel to chip away at the stump, breaking it apart until it is small enough to lift.


• This may take some time, but it is important to break the stump up into smaller pieces.


Step 6: Remove the Stump


• Once the stump is broken up into smaller pieces, use a rope to tie the pieces together and a wheelbarrow to transport them away from the site.


• Dispose of the stump pieces at an appropriate location.

Removing a tree stump can be a time consuming and tedious task, but with the right tools and some patience, it can be done in no time. If you have any questions or need assistance with tree stump removal, contact Branch Specialists Depew at (716) 666-4122. We are here to help!
