How it all got started...

It was a wet and windy day in August of 2005 as Hurricane Katrina made her presence known in South Eastern Louisiana. As the winds died down, I had the sinking realization that my previous business, which faced obsolescence before the storm, was now hoplessly doomed. As my children watched me clean up my property, I tripped over something. My initial reaction was somewhat profane, but I quickly realized that tree stump I just busted my knee on represented a new direction for my life. Such was the birth of Hank's Stump Grinding, LLC and I have never looked back!

As of today's update, we been in business for 17 years. What started with only me, a pickup truck, a trailer, and a single machine doing everything, has grown into a thriving family enterprise. We have grown into the company that has the best equipment and experience in the industry. Our reputation can't be beat! Please check out our ratings on Google, Yelp, Angie's List, and the Better Business Bureau. It has always been my personal goal to be the industry's best. In the process, we have raised the standards for service in our field. The entire staff of Hank's Stump Grinding values that reputation and we work to guarantee that it stays good!
