Getting Free Arborist Wood Chips: Tips for Delivery, Quantity, and Best Uses

Q: You mentioned on your radio program that free wood chips are easy to obtain. Whom to contact?

Most arborist companies (www.georgiaarborist.org) deliver free. Ask nicely and they'll look for an oak removal job—oak chips last longer than pine. Promise cookies and soft drinks for a partial load.

Cubic yard of chips mulches 15 big azaleas 2 inches thick. Need 1 cubic yard for mature dogwood/redbud; 2 for big oak/hickory. Ensure an unobstructed, level dump spot for their large truck. Driveway is NOT good unless you have an army of helpers.

Also get free chips at AboutTrees.com, matching homeowners with tree companies.
