Stump Removal Across Central Illinois

A stump in the middle of the yard is in the way of every mower pass. A fence row of stumps is in the way of every plow. They don't go away on their own — they sit there for ten years and rot, slowly.

Brohez Trucking pulls, grinds, and clears stumps across central Illinois. Single residential stumps, whole fence rows, hedge rows back to clean dirt, and farm clearing where the brush has crept into a field over the years.

The right tool depends on the job. If we can dig, we pull — quicker, more thorough, root and all out of the ground. If the area can't be torn up, we grind below grade. Either way the hole gets filled, the area gets graded, and we leave it ready for grass, fence, or pavement.

Brush and tops handled too: stack for a burn pile, push to a tree line, or haul off the property. One call covers tree-down, stump-out, and clean-up.

Our Stump Removal Process

Whether it's one stump or a hundred, the steps are the same.

STEP 01

Site Visit & Approach

We come look. Count the stumps, check root size, look at access, and decide between pulling and grinding. Free estimate.

STEP 02

Locates & Setup

Utility locates if we're digging. Mat any soft yards along the path. Right-size the equipment to the access — full excavator, mini excavator, or skid steer.

STEP 03

Pull Or Grind

Excavator and thumb pulls the whole root ball out. Tight spots get the mini. Where digging isn't an option, we grind below grade.

STEP 04

Brush & Tops

If the tree is still standing, it comes down first. Brush and tops stacked, pushed to a tree line, or loaded out — your call.

STEP 05

Backfill The Hole

Pulled-stump holes get backfilled with the spoils or with clean fill. Compacted in lifts so the spot doesn't settle next year.

STEP 06

Finish Grade

Smooth the area, blend it back into the surrounding grade, and leave it ready to seed, fence, or build over.

Every Kind Of Stump

From a single backyard stump to whole farm fence rows.

Single Residential Stumps

One stump in the yard pulled or ground. Quick, clean, hole filled and graded.

Multiple Yard Stumps

Several stumps in residential yards from a removed grove or storm damage. Knocked out in a day.

Fence Row Clearing

Old fence rows full of stumps and overgrowth pushed out and graded so a new fence — or open access — can go in straight.

Hedge Rows & Tree Lines

Whole hedge rows ripped out and the strip put back into use as field, lane, or building site.

Farm Clearing

Brush and stumps that have crept into pasture or cropland over the years cleared back to clean ground.

Big Stumps

The ones tree services say no to. Big root balls pulled with the excavator, hole backfilled, and the spot disappears.

Tree-Down To Stump-Out

Standing tree taken down, stump out, brush handled — one crew, one bill, no coordination.

Storm Damage Cleanup

Trees blown over leaving torn-up stumps and root balls — pulled, hauled, and the yard put back together.

Stump Removal FAQs

How much does stump removal cost?

Depends on stump size, root spread, access, and how many you have. Free estimate — call (217) 809-0779.

Do you grind or pull stumps?

Both. Pull when access allows — quicker and more thorough. Grind when the area can't be torn up.

Will the hole be filled and graded?

Yes. Backfill with spoils or clean fill, compacted in lifts, graded smooth, ready for grass.

Can you clear a whole fence row?

Yes — fence-row clearing is some of our most common work. Stumps pulled, brush handled, line graded.

Do you take down the tree first?

We can. Tree-down through stump-out is a single job.

What happens to the brush?

Your call: stack on-site for a burn pile, push to a tree row, or haul off.

60-mile radius from Mattoon, IL — Decatur, Champaign, Effingham, Charleston, Urbana, Sullivan, Tuscola, Shelbyville, Pana, and Terre Haute.
