Leylandii disposal

[Excels1or]

Not sure if this is posted in the correct place but here goes! We are a small tree care company. We have a yard but I'm reluctant to start piling up Leylandii chippings or waste. What does everyone else do with the dreaded conifer?

What do you do with your other chip🤔. Have a look on the tip site for you nearest location.

Sorry guys, yup I meant clippings

Cut on to sheets and put them through chipper.

I'd take them if you could drop them onto a suitable habitat pile

Conifer foliage rots down to make good ericaceous humus, organic matter , (acidic for acid loving plants like Azaleas, Heathers etc). If you could find a compost manufacturer or supplier they might be interested in buying clippings. Or set up a sideline business for yourself...........

Chip it if there's enough wood in it, chip goes free.

My chipper hates when it's just green clippings so if it's a small hedge, throw it on top of the pile of rakings at the yard. If it's a big hedge then leave it on the trailer and put the pile from the yard on top, and take it for green waste disposal.

Round us green waste needs paying by the load so I try to make it worth going.
