After a tree has been removed, whether it was cut down intentionally or a victim of inclement weather, the stump it leaves behind can pose a major issue. While some property owners might try to attempt the job themselves, this is a task best left to the experts. According to Zippia, there are an estimated 381,044 landscapers currently employed in the United States, meaning you have plenty of options for who can assist you. Read on to learn why you should call your local land clearing company for stump removal.

1. Safety

The most important concern for any project is safety. Removing large tree stumps is no small feat, and inexperienced workers face the risk of straining or injuring themselves. Additionally, these jobs often require specialized equipment. Attempting to operate machines such as saws, stump grinders, and other tools without the proper training creates unnecessary danger and opportunities for serious injuries.

2. Efficiency

With the complicated process involved in removing a stump, you can expect this task to be extremely time-consuming, especially if you're inexperienced with land clearing projects. A team of professionals can draw on their experience to complete the job with ease, offering maximum efficiency and saving you time.

3. Root Issues

In addition to the part of the stump that's visible, have you considered the root system attached? Proper stump removal also includes the complicated system of roots that was attached to the tree. If left behind, these roots can cause major issues such as cracking water pipes, foundation damage, and uneven pavement. It can be nearly impossible for an amateur to address all of the roots below the surface of the soil. Entrust this task to a team of experts instead.

4. Debris

After the stump has been removed, there will be a major mess left behind. Many trash removal companies won't accept materials such as tree waste or shavings, meaning you'll have to find a specialized service. By hiring a land clearing company for your project, you're also securing a guaranteed waste removal service that can take care of cleaning up your yard.
