A Bobcat

chainsaw and commercial roundup

Thanks for the replies.

I'm not sure a bobcat would work as they are a few inches from the sidewalk (on 2 sides of a corner lot).

For the chainsaw method, would I use roundup first and then chainsaw, or would I chainsaw and then paint the stumps with roundup?

commercial round up on fresh cut stumps is the way to go for me

You could contact Bonsai groups or Societies near you, they might be interested in coming out and digging them up for you. They remove the trees for free of charge and you don't have to do any work. Should be a win - win situation for both parties.

Dig them out, don't leave the stumps or the roots. You can find day laborers all over the 3 counties for $10 an hour. Get three or four big guys, give 'em shovels and get out of the way.

Stumps will easily remove in a few months without much work..I just removed a hedge of holly this way with great success..used comercial round up(50%) instructions
