FAQs About Chippers & Stumpers
United Rentals carries a large selection of used wood chippers and stump grinders for sale to help you reduce labor costs and increase worksite efficiency. Clearing land for commercial or industrial development is time-consuming and requires the right equipment to remove wood waste efficiently. For example, if the land you’re clearing is less than 5 acres, a large towable or self-propelled brush chipper is a good option. The greatest efficiency is achieved when grinding large amounts of material at one time. This can be accomplished with a diesel-powered horizontal or tub-style stump grinder. Larger jobs will require more powerful motors and blades to cut through trees quickly without causing damage during transport from land clearing sites like those found in logging operations. United Rentals also has a variety of small stump grinders and wood chippers for sale for all your basic tree-care needs. With reliable brands like Brush Bandit and Vermeer, you can be sure our machines will meet your project needs.

Renting is a good option if you’re doing a one-time job. But for ongoing commercial or industrial forest-clearing projects, purchasing a tree chipper is the way to go. Your crew no longer has to worry about adjusting their work schedule based on equipment availability, and if you have to rent a wood chipper more than once, the cost will likely be higher than buying.
Electric chippers are the lightest weight, ranging from 25 to 100 pounds. However, the gas- and diesel-powered machines can weigh up to 5,200 pounds.
