Credit River is one of the newer cities in the metro, a rural-residential community in Scott County between Prior Lake and Lakeville with larger lots and a lot of wooded acreage. The lot sizes here mean stump work is often multi-stump rather than a single tree, especially when a homeowner is catching up on years of accumulated tree removal.
We bring equipment sized to the job and grind the stumps below grade. Free estimate, no deposit, and you pay when the work is done.

Why Get Rid of Your Tree Stumps?
A stump in your yard isn't just an eyesore. The longer it sits, the more it complicates the property, and the case for grinding is stronger than most people realize.
Sucker Growth and Nutrient Drain
A stump left in the ground doesn't always stay dormant. Many species send up suckers, small shoots that turn into volunteer trees if left unmanaged. These pull nutrients from the surrounding soil and can outcompete the lawn, garden plants, or any new tree you'd want to plant. Removing the stump stops the cycle at the source.
Trip Hazards and Lawn Damage
Stumps are notorious for ruining mower blades and twisting ankles. Hidden in tall grass or under fallen leaves, a stump becomes a real safety risk for kids, pets, and anyone working in the yard. As the stump rots, sinkholes can develop in the surrounding soil, sometimes years after the tree came down.
Insect and Fungal Concerns
A decaying stump is a habitat for carpenter ants, termites, and beetles. In Credit River, that habitat can spread to nearby healthy trees, garden plants, and even structures over time. Grinding the stump below grade removes the habitat and reduces the local disease pressure on the rest of your yard.

Cleanup
Grindings are raked into a neat pile and we sweep the work area before we leave. If you'd rather have them spread as mulch across the yard or hauled off-site, both are available as add-ons for a flat fee.
What to Expect After We Leave
You'll have a depression where the stump was, filled with grindings 4 to 8 inches deep depending on how deep we ground. Grindings settle over two to three months as they decompose. If you're planning to plant grass or sod, wait for the settle to finish first, or request haul-away and bring in fresh topsoil. If you're planting a new tree in the same spot, wait at least six months and then dig out the remaining grindings before planting. We can advise on timing based on your specific plan.

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.
Questions Credit River Customers Ask
Can you handle bigger multi-stump jobs on a larger lot?
Yes. Larger lots often mean several stumps at once. We bring equipment sized to the job and grind them in a single visit when access allows.
How much does a stump grinding job cost?
Every property is different, so pricing depends on factors like stump size, the number of stumps, root systems, accessibility, and location. Call us or fill out the quote form with a few details (photos help!) and we'll give you a personalized estimate for your specific project.
Can you work around a septic system, well, or irrigation?
Yes. We need to know where the septic lines, well cap, and irrigation heads are before we start. If you have a site plan, have it handy.
How do I get a quote?
Call or fill out the form to request an estimate. Provide details about the number of stumps along with a rough measurement of the diameter, and details about your property. In some cases we'll need you to text or email photos to ensure the quote is accurate. Most quotes come back the same day.
How long does it take to grind a stump?
The grinder runs for 15 to 60 minutes on most residential stumps. Big oaks, multi-trunk maples, and stumps with heavy surface roots take longer.
