How To Remove Shrubs and Shrub Roots

Attach a chain around the shrub roots

• Take one end of the utility chain and weave it through and around the shrub’s roots, snugging it as tightly as possible.

• Dig down approximately four to six inches, depending on the size of the rootball.
• • Weave the chain through the roots so there’s no chance of it slipping. If that’s not possible, find a narrow spot to securely wrap and tighten the chain to keep it in place.

• Place one of the bolts through two links in the chain and use the nut to secure them together.
• Hand-tighten the bolt and nut as much as possible.
