Grinding vs. full removal
Stump grinding cuts the stump down to several inches below the ground. The roots are left to rot naturally. This is what most homeowners choose because it is fast and does little damage to the yard.
Full removal pulls out the stump and the main roots. It leaves a large hole and costs more, but you may need it if you plan to build or pour concrete in that spot.
Before the grinder comes
Mark any sprinkler heads, buried cables or pipes near the stump. In Georgia and South Carolina you (or the company) should call 811 a few days before digging so underground utility lines are marked for free.
Ask whether the price includes cleaning up the grindings or filling the hole with topsoil.

Common questions
Will the stump grow back?
Some trees, like sweetgum, can send up sprouts from the roots after grinding. These usually stop after being mowed or cut a few times.
Can I plant a new tree in the same spot?
It is better to plant a few feet away. The old roots and wood chips break down slowly and can make it harder for a new tree to grow.
