Grinding, removal, or just "get rid of it"
Homeowners say "stump removal" for two different jobs. Grinding chews the stump into chips with a machine and usually leaves the roots to rot. Full removal digs the stump and main roots out, which means a bigger machine, a bigger hole and a bigger bill. Most residential jobs are grinding. Say which one you want in your request, or describe the goal (new lawn, a shed pad, a tree to replant) and let the pro suggest it.
What is specific to St. Charles
- Older districts. The city has several National Register historic districts, among them the Main Street historic district, Frenchtown and the Lindenwood Neighborhood. Access in older areas can differ from a new subdivision. See stump access in the older districts.
- Two kinds of ground. The city sits on the Missouri River floodplain and on the loess uplands above it. See what that means for a grinder.
- Which trees leave stumps here. Ash lost to emerald ash borer, Callery pears, pin oaks and others. See the trees behind the stumps.
- Call 811 first. Missouri's two-business-day rule is covered in our 811 guide.
- Street-side stumps. If the stump is between the sidewalk and the curb, read who pays and who decides first.
How the quote process works
- Fill out the short form with your name, phone, ZIP, number of stumps and a few words about the job.
- We send the request to one or a few independent pros who serve your ZIP, not to a mass list.
- The pro contacts you, may ask for a photo, and gives you a price.
- You decide. If the price or timing does not suit you, you owe nothing.
This service is new. We are still signing up local pros, so we cannot promise a response time or that every request is matched. See how this site works.

Published figures differ by source and by what the job includes. The cost guide lists each number with its source and date.
Common questions
Who actually removes the stump?
An independent local tree or stump pro, not us. This site is a referral service run by Anchor Co Media. We collect your request and pass it to a pro who contacts you with a price.
Is the stump by the street my responsibility or the city's?
The City of St. Charles says property owners maintain trees on their property, including street trees. For dead, dangerous or damaged trees in the city right-of-way, the city runs a 50/50 cost-share program. See our page on street-side stumps for the details and what we could not confirm.
Does asking for a quote cost anything?
No. It is free and you are under no obligation. Any price for the work is between you and the pro.
