Branch chipper

Why should I use branch chipping? This operation consists in transforming your branches into smaller elements: chips. This is particularly useful to remove a pile of branches on a property. This operation is obviously recommended after pruning, trimming or felling work. The biggest benefit is to quickly clean up unnecessary branches on your property, no matter what the reason.

Who would like to have more time at their disposal?  ​

There is no doubt that you can shred your branches yourself, except that the task will take you a considerable amount of time. Our chipper does it for you.  And it turns out that this machine does the job much more efficiently than a chainsaw.

Shredding branches to get more space on your property

To reclaim space or to save time, here is another interest in having your branches chipped. The ones you pile up in a corner that you want to keep out of sight or the ones that cover your lawn after work. Space and time are two very precious factors in our lives.

A pile of branches attracts insects and fungi

Don't expect your pile of branches to miraculously disappear, as if the rot would eventually get the better of it. Unfortunately, that's not how it works. You will only gain a damp place where insects, fungi and small unwanted animals will love to take refuge. These are undoubtedly inconveniences to be avoided whenever possible. Skunks or fungi can leave bad smells. Insects can ravage the lawn or your plants. Mushrooms can be poisonous and possibly make adventurous children sick. It's amazing how many worries our shredder will pulverize! Emondage L'Assomption offers a wide range of tree care services in addition to chipping. Our arborists are ready to serve you, just call us at 579-795-2005.

A branch chipper to give a second life to wood scraps

Many people ask themselves a very simple question: what exactly is the purpose of wood chips? In any case, your wood pile has no use. Wood chips give useful life to branches that would not otherwise be useful. When you think about how valuable wood is, it's kind of a relief. If you browse through web pages, you'll find a whole list of uses for your wood chips. For example, they enrich your compost or serve as a moisture preserving cover when spread in your flower beds. This way, your plants will need less watering. That's pretty convenient, isn't it? However, if you have had us do some felling, pruning or trimming, and you don't want to keep the chips, you can be sure that we will take them away. In this case, we will take care of revaluing them for you. On your side, you will have obtained a de-cluttering of your lawn.

A good idea to rent a shredder and do it yourself?

If you are considering renting with a view to doing the shredding yourself, you should be aware of the significant drawbacks that come with such a decision. This is not a choice we would advise you to make in any case. First of all, you will have a significant cost to pay, which is in the hundreds of dollars per day, and which will not allow you to realize the desired savings. Secondly, your vehicle will have to have a ball for the transport of the device. Finally, and most importantly, this is why it's best to avoid it: the shredder is a very dangerous device. Serious injuries can result from its use, especially if you are inexperienced. We have liability insurance for situations where accidents happen, even though it is rare. This is because this work is part of the daily routine of our arborists at Emondage L'Assomption.
