Jefferson is the seat of Jackson County and the home of the Crawford W. Long Museum, which marks the spot where Long first used ether as an anesthetic in 1842. It is a growing county, and around Jefferson you see the contrast directly, new home sites and subdivisions going in right beside older farm properties that have been in families for generations.
That mix means stumps come from two directions. On the new home sites, they are left behind after lot clearing. On the older farm properties, they are the remnants of trees cut along fence lines, around outbuildings, or in pasture corners over the years. Both kinds sit in the way until they are ground out.
New Sites and Old Farms
On a new home site, the stumps are where the lawn or driveway is supposed to go. On an older farm property, they are scattered along edges and corners. The Rayco track-mounted grinder handles both, grinding each stump down where it stands from 3 inches in diameter up to 8 feet wide.
Bob clears multiple stumps in one visit, so whether it is a handful on a farm or a lot full on a cleared building site, it is one schedule and one cleanup.
Clearing for What Comes Next
On a new site, the goal is usually a clean slate for grading, sod, or landscaping. Bob grinds the stumps and can haul the chips away so the lot is ready for the next step. On a farm property, raking the grindings smooth as mulch along a fence line is often the practical choice.
You tell Bob what you want done with the grindings. Cleanup is part of every job, not an add-on.
Fitting Through and Around
The track-mounted grinder is compact enough to work in yards and through gates where a big truck cannot go, so a stump behind a fence on a farm or beside a new house is reachable. Bob works around sprinkler heads, lines, invisible dog fence wire, and landscape lighting you point out.
After grinding, the spot is a mix of chips and soil. For an area going to grass, remove most of the chips and fill with topsoil first, because grindings settle as they break down.
