Maxeys is a tiny town in southern Oglethorpe County, surrounded by open farmland and timber tracts. There is not much to it on the map — a crossroads, a few homes, and then fields and woods stretching out in every direction. About 27 miles from our Hull base, it is the kind of place where the town ends and the country begins in the same breath.
Out here, the land does the talking. Timber gets cut back to open up a field, old fencerows get cleaned out, and storm-downed trees leave their stumps behind wherever they fell. A stump sitting out in a field or along a property line is a standing reminder that the tree came out but the work did not finish with it.
Stumps Left After Cutting
Timber cutting and land clearing are a regular part of life around Maxeys, and cutting leaves stumps behind. Whether a stand of trees was selectively harvested or a patch was opened up for a field or a home site, the stumps remain where the saw stopped. Bob grinds them down where they stand, one or many in a single visit.
The Rayco track-mounted grinder handles stumps from 3 inches in diameter up to 8 feet wide. Its tracks let it work on rough, uneven ground where a big truck cannot go, which matters on the larger, less-manicured tracts common in this part of the county.
Fields and Property Lines
Stumps out in a field get in the way of mowing and equipment, and stumps along a property line sit right where you want to run a fence or clean up the boundary. Grinding them out clears the ground so the line is usable again, without digging a trench or tearing up the surrounding turf.
After the grinding, cleanup is part of the job. On open ground, leaving the grindings raked smooth as mulch is a common choice since it blends back into the soil over time. For spots you want to plant or fence, hauling the chips away leaves a clean slate.
One Visit, However Many Stumps
Properties around Maxeys tend to have more than one stump at a time, because the cutting that left them usually took out several trees. Bob clears a single stump or a whole lot full in one scheduled visit, then rakes the grindings or hauls them away depending on what you want done with the chips.
Jobs are scheduled from a quote. Call or text Bob a photo of the stump — the biggest one if there are several — and he will look at the job and get you on the list.

Maxeys Stump Grinding — Common Questions
Can you grind stumps out in a field near Maxeys?
Yes. The Rayco is track-mounted, so it works on rough, open ground where a wheeled machine cannot go. Field stumps left after cutting are a common job out here.
Do you clear stumps along property lines and fencerows?
Yes. Stumps along a property line or fencerow are a frequent call. Bob grinds them down where they stand so you can run fencing, mow, or clean up the boundary.
What happens to the chips on farmland around Maxeys?
Your choice. Bob can rake the grindings smooth and leave them as mulch, which blends back into the soil, or haul them away if you want a clean spot for planting or fencing.
