Stump Grinding in Lafayette County, MS is handled by licensed and insured crews from Oxford Tree Removal, powered by Garrison McKinney Tree Service. Grinding stumps down below grade so you can regrade, reseed, or landscape over the spot.
We regularly work near Lafayette County Courthouse, Sardis Lake, Yocona River, where water oak, loblolly pine, southern red oak are common. Grinding is the fast, tidy way to deal with a stump without digging out the whole root system. We run a wheeled grinder down through the wood and root flare below grade, leaving a bowl of wood chips and soil where the stump used to be instead of a hole or a chunk of trunk sticking out of the yard.

How deep we grind
Standard grinding takes the stump down 4 to 6 inches below grade, enough to mow over or plant grass on top. If you're planning to put in a new tree, shrub, or footing in that spot, tell us and we can grind deeper.
Access for the grinder
Our grinder can get through a standard gate and most side yards. Tight backyards, tricky fence gaps, and stumps close to a foundation sometimes need a smaller machine, which we bring when the site calls for it.
What's left behind
Grinding produces a pile of wood chips and dirt at the stump location. We can haul that off, or leave it if you want mulch or fill material, your call.
Countywide property mix
We work everything from downtown Oxford lots to large rural timber tracts, and the county's mix of college-town growth and long-standing farm and hunting land means our crews handle both precision in-town removals and heavy equipment work on rural acreage in the same week.
