Carlton sits at the far eastern edge of Madison County, out near the Broad River. It is some of the most wooded country we reach, with acreage, hunting land, and timber tracts that stretch across the rolling Piedmont. About 18 miles from our Hull base, Carlton is where the lots get bigger and the trees get thicker.
Timber cutting is part of life out here, and cutting leaves stumps behind. Whether a tract was selectively harvested or a patch was cleared for a food plot or a home site, the stumps remain where the saw stopped. On hunting land and wooded acreage, they are often left in place until someone decides to clean up the ground.
Timber Tracts and Hunting Land
Carlton properties are often large and wooded, with stumps left behind after timber cutting or land clearing. Bob clears a single stump or a whole lot full in one visit. The Rayco track-mounted grinder handles stumps from 3 inches in diameter up to 8 feet wide, and its tracks let it work on rough, uneven ground where a truck cannot go.
On timber tracts and hunting land, the goal is usually a cleaner piece of ground, whether for a food plot, a clearing, or a building site. Bob grinds the stumps down where they stand and then rakes the grindings smooth or hauls them away, depending on what you want done with the chips.
Wooded Acreage Near the Broad River
The country around Carlton rolls down toward the Broad River, and the acreage here is heavily wooded. Home sites carved out of the trees, cleared paths, and old fence lines all leave stumps behind. Grinding them out opens up the ground for mowing, planting, or simply a tidier edge to the woods.
For wooded acreage, leaving the grindings as mulch is a common choice, since it blends back into the forest floor. For spots you want to plant or build on, hauling the chips away leaves a clean slate. You tell Bob what you want done with the grindings.
Cleanup Is Part of the Job
A ground stump turns into a pile of chips and soil that can look bigger than the stump did. Cleanup is part of every job. Bob rakes the grindings level or loads them up and takes them with him so you are not left with the mess.
If you plan to plant or lay sod where the stump was, remove most of the chips and fill the spot with topsoil first. Grindings settle as they break down, so topping up the patch keeps it from dipping over time.

Carlton Stump Grinding — Common Questions
Can you grind stumps on rough timber land near Carlton?
Yes. The Rayco is track-mounted, so it works on rough, uneven ground where a wheeled machine cannot go. That suits the wooded tracts and hunting land common around Carlton.
Do you clear stumps left after timber cutting?
Yes. Stumps left behind after a harvest or clearing are a common job out here. Bob grinds them down where they stand, one or many in a single visit.
What do you do with the chips on wooded acreage?
Your choice. Bob can rake the grindings smooth and leave them as mulch, which blends back into the forest floor, or haul them away for a clean spot.
