Why a Better Rentals Tracked Stump Grinder Hire?
Better Rental’s Stump Grinder Hire is chosen to help you get your job done quickly, easily and safely.
Hydraulic drive and grinder head means there’s no belts or chains to break. We both have better things to do.
They’re heavy – 770kg – so the cutting head sits securely against the stump.
A stump grinder that drives all by itself – so you’ll impress others with your smart choice of machine rather than how strong you are. And you won’t be sore the next day from pushing the manual stump grinder you hired around your yard.
Sharp Tungsten Teeth for quick stump removal.
Our Stump Grinder Hire Rates are All Inclusive and include a free trailer and cleaning.
Tracked Stump Grinder means you don’t damage your grass or surrounding areas. We have golf courses take these units for their tree stump removal jobs so they don’t damage their turf.
Save your back and do your stump grinding job quicker and easier with a Hydraulic Stump Grinder.
“But I only need to hire a small stump grinder”
There are smaller cheaper units around which are fine for one or two very small soft stumps. We used to hire these – but found all we did was drive around fixing burnt out belts as they really weren’t up to the job. This annoyed us – and our customers. So we removed them from our fleet.
Better Rentals Stump Grinder Hire – Mornington, Cranbourne, Pakenham and Ferntree Gully and our self propelled, “fit through a gate” hydraulic stump grinders are available at all our branches.
Stump Grinder Hire Bunnings?
Bunnings is a great place to buy stuff – and the even do have a small selection of hire items. But, last time we looked they didn’t have stump grinder hire as part of the Bunnings range.
So, if you need to hire a stump grinder from Bunnings – you’re better off calling Better Rentals. And if you need to buy hardware or a tree to replace the stump you removed – Bunnings is the place to go.
How difficult is a Stump Grinder to use?
Very Simple.
They’re easy to drive using the hand control.
Forward, back, left and right is all controlled with the single pistol control. Just start it in low revs so it doesn’t react too quickly while your getting used to what happens and you – like the hundreds of other customers who have hired the stump grinder – will have no problems.
To grind the stump – a few things to keep in mind but it’s simple too.
* Start at the edge (the “corner” of the side and top) and work down taking a few cm off with each pass.
* Don’t try and put the cutter into the middle of the stump – it won’t work.
* Let the machine cut – trying to grind too much of the stump with each pass just means the hydraulics get overloaded and you’ll need to wait for the engine revs to build back up.

Stump Grinder Safety
Hearing Protection:
Stump grinders are loud – and guaranteed to annoy the neighbours (which may be a good thing) – so ues hearing protection. We’ll give you a set of ear plugs. Two sets (that’s 4 ear plugs) if you ask nicely.
Eye Protection
Being able to see is important – so wear eye protection to keep your eyes safe.
Keep observers well clear – and everyone and everything well clear of the “business end” of the stump grinder.
