Delano sits on the South Fork of the Crow River in southeastern Wright County, right in the path of the western Twin Cities storm corridor that runs along Highway 12 from Wayzata out toward Litchfield. That corridor catches summer thunderstorms, occasional derecho-edge wind events, and the seasonal ice-storm hits that Wright County is known for. Trees come down. Stumps get left behind.
We grind storm-related stumps across this corridor every year, and the Delano calls keep coming long after the news cycle moves on. Most takedown companies do not grind stumps, they cut the tree, haul the wood, and leave the stump for the homeowner to deal with as a separate project.
If you are sitting on a stump from a storm-related takedown, last summer, two years ago, doesn't matter, it is still a job we can finish.
- Serving Delano and the western Twin Cities since 2016
- Volume pricing on multi-stump lots (5+)
- Photo pricing, no deposits, paid only when the work is done
- Compact equipment that narrows to about 36 inches for tight gate access

What Storm Cleanup Actually Looks Like in Delano
A typical Delano storm job: the homeowner hired a tree service to remove a fallen oak or silver maple after a wind event. The tree service cut the trunk into rounds, hauled the wood, and left a stump 12-18 inches above grade. They probably mentioned that stump grinding was not included.
We come in as the second crew. We grind the stump 4 to 8 inches below grade, rake the grindings into a neat pile, and sweep the work area clean. Spreading the grindings as mulch across the yard or hauling them off-site is available as an add-on for a flat fee. The hole left in the lawn settles over a few months. If you want to plant new sod or a replacement tree, we can recommend the right wait window.
For multi-stump storm jobs, where two or three trees came down, we can knock out the grinding in a single day if access is reasonable.
Insurance-Related Work
A meaningful percentage of post-storm stump grinding gets reimbursed through homeowner's insurance, particularly when the original tree damage was claim-eligible. We invoice on letterhead, itemize per-stump if needed, and have provided documentation for insurance reimbursement on jobs across this part of Wright County many times. If you are doing the claim yourself, ask us before the work and we will structure the invoice to support it.

Alexander & Kayla Sagal
Wow! They came so fast and helped us get our sod project back on track. They grinded 3 stumps in no time at all and the bid came in exactly as another company that couldn't do it for 5 more days. Great service, would recommend!
Kelly Knaus
They've been a fantastic service provider for years, both at my own homes and for clients' properties. The process is incredibly easy. They show up, get the job done well, and make payment simple with easy one-click options when the work is complete. Reliable, convenient, and consistently great quality work every time.
Roxanne Anderson
We had two stumps removed by ByeBye Stumps. Communication was great, they handled getting the utilities marked and cleaned up any dirt on the driveway and street afterwards, a nice touch. I got three estimates and they were reasonably priced. I will recommend them to family and friends. Thank you Lucas and Chris.
Four Questions Delano Customers Ask
The takedown crew left a really tall stump. Can you still grind it?
Yes. We will cut the leftover stump flush to the ground for a small additional charge, then grind down to 4 to 8 inches below grade.
My insurance company is asking for documentation. Can you help with that?
Yes. If requested at the time of booking the project we can proved before-and-after photos, dated work records, an itemized invoice and receipt of payment. Tell us what your insurer needs before we arrive on site and we will provide it.
My property is along the Crow River and typically floods in the Spring. Does that matter for grinding?
We avoid grinding in saturated soil because the equipment can rut a wet lawn and the grinding hole takes longer to settle. If your job is in a floodplain area, we will schedule after the river drops and the ground firms up.
How quickly can you get to a Delano storm cleanup?
Storm jobs we can typically schedule within the week. Call us, we will tell you how far out we are scheduling.
