Franklin Springs is a small town right next door to Royston, in Franklin County. It is home to Emmanuel University, so the town has a campus at its center with student rentals, faculty homes, and older in-town lots clustered around it. About 25 miles from our Hull base, Franklin Springs feels like a college town that never lost its small-town edges.
Mature trees line the streets here, and that is exactly where stumps come from. An old shade tree comes down in a yard, a storm takes one out along a street, and the stump stays behind. Around the campus, landlords readying rental houses between tenants often want a stump gone before the next move-in.
Campus-Area Rentals and Turnovers
Rental houses near the Emmanuel University campus turn over regularly, and a stump in the yard is the kind of thing a landlord wants handled before a new tenant arrives. Grinding takes it out below the surrounding grade so the yard is safe and easy to mow over, without digging a big hole.
The Rayco track-mounted grinder is compact enough to work in tight campus-area lots without tearing up the surrounding turf. It handles stumps from 3 inches in diameter up to 8 feet wide, so a single old shade tree is well within reach.
In-Town Homes With Mature Trees
The older in-town homes in Franklin Springs tend to have mature trees, and mature trees eventually come down. Whether a tree was taken out before it fell or a storm knocked it over, the stump that remains is a tripping hazard and an obstacle for the mower. Bob grinds it out where it stands.
After the grinding, cleanup is part of the job. Bob rakes the grindings smooth to leave as mulch or hauls them away, depending on what you want done with the chips. You tell him what you want done with the grindings.
Right Next Door to Royston
Franklin Springs sits right against Royston, so a job here often pairs with work on the other side of the line. If you have stumps in both towns, mention it when you call — scheduling them together keeps it to one visit.
