What do wood chipping services include?

Wood chips have a variety of uses, so there are a lot of instances when you can benefit from hiring a tree chipping service near you! It’s made even better through the Airtasker platform because we have created a convenient system for you. You’re able to get the specific task done in just a few taps. Here are some common reasons why you may need chipper services near you:

Landscaping

Wood chips are a great addition to mulch for your garden. However, it can be dangerous for you to chip wood on your own without prior experience. Leave it to the experts. Even if you only need enough wood chips for your plants, there’s no task too big or too small for Taskers.

 

Professional landscapers can also hire wood chipping services for big projects requiring a substantial byproduct. This may be cheaper than sourcing from commercial suppliers. Airtasker can help landscapers grow their business by connecting them to other professionals. For example, you can hire someone to buy flowers ready for repotting or deliver soil and sand to the site. This way, you can focus on doing other crucial tasks for your business.

Tree removal

Strong winds and typhoons can topple a big tree over to your property. You may also want a nuisance tree to be removed. Wood chipping services break down the tree into smaller pieces of wood. This is an excellent option if the tree is too big to haul out of your garden through your house doors. Cutting them into chips also convert fallen branches or nuisance trees into recyclable wood!

Papermaking

Albeit the least common purpose among the three, papermaking is one of the oldest uses of wood chips. If you own a company that produces paper in the surrounding area, you can put up a task on Airtasker for days when you need an extra hand. A Tasker can come in to join your team for wood chipping in case someone gets sick, or there’s an influx in production requirements. Another option is to purchase the wood chips from a tree chipping professional.

Playgrounds

If you have a bigger space for the kids at the back of the house, wood chips make an excellent cushion for outdoor play areas. Wood chips help retain soil moisture, so it’s not as hard and rough when your child falls on it or hits their knee on the ground. They are sometimes considered garden waste and removed from the property for a fee. You may be able to save on expenses if you contact a local wood chipper provider and buy the so-called waste wood chips for recycling!
