My family was fit to be tied. I thought it was wonderful, and was amused by there horror. I sent a family text telling everyone I had an abundance of wood chips, and was willing to share. Ever since then they come get wood chips from my house. That was years ago, and my family has come around. They have seen the benefits and results of using wood chips.
Congratulations on your wood chip win. Maybe talk to the tree guys and let them know you may be interested in more chips if they are in your area. The company I get my wood chips from will even ask if I have any requests or needs, and I ask for no poison trees, like oleander. Other than that I'm just happy to get what ever they want to give me.
Having a local tree service on speed dial is definitely the dream setup. We couldn't get ChipDrop or any local crews to dump deliveries out near us, so I eventually bit the bullet and picked up a [url=https://emcindustrial.com/products/emc-portable-6-wood-chipper]this model up/url] to hook up behind the tractor.
Having a massive pile dumped all at once like that is definitely way easier on the back, but being able to chip fresh trimmings right where we need them has been awesome. Free chips are addicting once you see what they do for the soil!
