When you cut down a tree in the yard, you may think that the hardest part of the job is over. But that is not the case. You still need to deal with the stump that’s hanging in there, which is a permanent testimony to your cleaning efforts.

Stumps, if out of the way or hidden by landscaping, do not seem to be much of a problem. But in most cases the stump is found to be at a very inconvenient place in the yard, one that messes up the view from your porch and is a potential toe stubbing hazard. Deliberating if a stump is to be removed or not, is usually an easy choice in these cases.

Homeowners are faced with 2 options mainly. They can go to a hardware store, rent the necessary equipment for a price, and try to get rid of the stump without any help. This operation is fraught with uncertainties. Firstly no matter how well-heeled you may be, you really do not have ALL the resources and tools that a professional stump clearing company possesses. And there are plenty of things that can go wrong (and they usually do) when you are undertaking an operation of this magnitude. You also may end up injuring yourself, and that is not a pleasant outcome.

If you’re stumped for a way out, you should consider 3 different factors; the size of the stump, your budget, and also your ability to do the job yourself.
