Demand for Stump Removal in the UK Is Growing

When Forestry Journal visited our stand at APF, the UK’s largest forestry event, they captured more than just machinery in motion — they highlighted a market shift. Demand for stump removal in the UK is growing, and at Dipperfox, we’re proud to be at the forefront of that movement.

Alongside our Scottish distribution partner, RJ Hall Engineering, we demonstrated how Dipperfox offers a cleaner, safer, and faster solution for today’s land-clearing needs.

RJ Hall Engineering: Dipperfox’s UK Partner Based in Scotland

Operating from Scotland, RJ Hall Engineering serves customers across the UK with forestry repairs, custom equipment like continuous mounders, and full support for Dipperfox products.

In the Forestry Journal video, Dalton from RJ Hall discussed their experience:

“We’ve been distributing Dipperfox for about three years now. We’ve got customers down in Devon, across Wales, central England, and throughout Scotland.”

This nationwide reach is clear proof: the demand for stump removal in the UK is growing — and professionals are looking for better ways to get the job done.

What Makes Dipperfox Different?

    • Low-speed grinding means less noise and greater safety

    • Minimal risk zone protects operators and nearby public

    • Maintenance is simple — no grease points, just oil changes twice a year

    • Compatible with a wide range of carriers, from 1.5 to 30 tonnes (including MultiOne, Toro Dingo, and Avant)

These features are crucial for contractors handling peatland restoration, urban arborist work, or forestry site clearing, all of which are seeing increased demand.

Why Is Demand for Stump Removal in the UK Growing?

According to Dalton, it’s driven by several factors:

  • A desire for neater, more professional site finishes

  • Environmental goals, especially in peatland restoration, where stump removal speeds up natural degradation

  • Increased safety standards, both for workers and the general public

“People are surprised at how quick and quiet it is,” Dalton said. “And because there’s no debris flying out, it’s safer for everyone on site.”

This matches exactly what the market needs right now — a smarter alternative to traditional grinders.

Forestry Journal Captured the Moment
