Not unless you are prepared to pay good money for the arb waste. Within 5 years I can see a good market for arb waste being created throughout the country as the price of logs goes up.

I think there is a big difference between waste and arisings. I only generate waste when dealing with invasive species spraying like knotweed not arb work. Woodchip, firewood logs and millable logs all have value. Most companies sell off this stuff or at worst give it away for free. I don't think you'll be able to charge for it. If I had a large yard available I'd make it very secure and let the space out. Maybe fill it with containers and offer lets on them.
