Ila sits in the quiet, rural northern reaches of Madison County. It is farm country, with open fields, wooded home sites carved out of the trees, and fence rows that have stood for generations. About 12 miles from our Hull base, it is the kind of place where the work is spread out and the properties have room to breathe.
Out here, stumps come with the territory. Old trees come down along fence lines, timber is cut back to open up a field, and home sites cleared out of the woods leave stumps behind where the dozer stopped. A stump in a fencerow or a new clearing is a standing reminder that the tree is gone but the work is not finished.
Farm Properties and Wooded Home Sites
Ila properties are a mix of working farms and home sites cut into the woods. Stumps out here are often scattered along fence rows or clustered where a patch of trees was taken out to open up ground. Bob clears a single stump or a whole lot full in one visit, then rakes the grindings smooth as mulch or hauls them away.
The Rayco track-mounted grinder handles stumps from 3 inches in diameter up to 8 feet wide. Its tracks let it work on rough ground and slopes where a big truck cannot go, which matters on the larger, less-manicured lots common in this part of the county.
Fence Rows Where Old Trees Came Down
Fence rows are a frequent source of stumps in Ila. Trees grow up along them for decades, and when one comes down or is cut, the stump sits right in the line. Grinding it out clears the way for fencing, mowing, or simply a cleaner edge to the field.
For open ground and fence lines, leaving the grindings as mulch is a common choice. 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, Every Time
A ground stump turns into a pile of chips and soil that can look bigger than the stump did. Bob does not leave you with that mess. Cleanup after every job is standard, whether that means raking the grindings level or loading them up and taking them with him.
If you want 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.

Ila Stump Grinding — Common Questions
Can you get the grinder onto a rough or wooded lot in Ila?
Yes. The Rayco is track-mounted, so it works on rough ground and slopes where a wheeled machine or truck cannot go. That suits the larger, wooded home sites common around Ila.
Do you clear stumps along fence rows?
Yes. Fence-row stumps are common out here. Bob grinds them down where they stand so you can run fencing, mow, or clean up the edge of a field.
What happens to the chips on a farm property?
Your choice. Bob can rake the grindings smooth and leave them as mulch along a fence line or open ground, or haul them away if you want a clean spot.
