Stump Grinding Price Chart Builder
Turn your own grinder, labour, overhead and travel costs into a per-inch stump price, a minimum charge and a one-page price chart you can print.




Most stump prices start as a guess or a number borrowed from someone else. This workbook starts from your costs. Enter what your grinder costs to own and run, what you pay for labour, your overhead, your average travel and the profit margin you want. It works out your cost per hour, your break-even cost per inch of stump diameter, a per-inch price and a minimum charge per visit.
You set the rest: higher per-inch rates for bigger stumps, discounts for several stumps in one visit, add-on percentages for cleanup and haul-away and for surface roots, and multipliers for tight or difficult access. The Price Chart tab prints on one page with your business name, ready to hand to a customer or keep in the truck. The Job Quote tab prices a visit with up to 12 stumps, using the same rule as the chart, so the two always agree.
The sample copy is filled in with example numbers so you can see how it works; they are examples, not suggested rates. A blank copy is included for your own figures. It does not calculate sales tax; add any that applies to your business. No macros, nothing locked, no subscription.
