About Stump Munchers

Stump Munchers is the leading tree stump removal company in the 5 county Philadelphia area. We've been grinding tree stumps since 1982. Our commitment to meeting the needs of our customers with timely and excellent service, has made us the fastest growing tree stump grinding company in the region.

Stump Munchers is the brain child of Daniel Murphy, an ISA certified arborist, and recognized author and educator in the tree care industry. When Hurricane Isabel slammed into Virginia and became the costliest and deadliest storm of 2003, Daniel put his tree service, of 21 years, on hold to go down and help out. The initial clean up of downed trees left countless thousands of tree stumps in the wake of the storm. Daniel ground more tree stumps in the next four months than most arborists grind in a lifetime and learned some valuable lessons and techniques along the way.

After the hurricane clean up, Daniel returned to Murphy's Tree Service, with a new mission, to build Stump Munchers into the leading stump removal company in the region. The only way to achieve that was to give great customer service. Stump Munchers has the commitment, know-how, and equipment to provide great service.
