Leicester Tree Services is a well-established, family-owned company proudly serving Leicester and the surrounding areas. For over 15 years, we have built a strong reputation for delivering reliable, safe, and professional tree care solutions to homeowners, businesses, and local councils. Our mission is to make tree maintenance and wood disposal straightforward, affordable, and environmentally responsible. Among our many services, wood chipping stands out as a highly practical and popular option for customers looking to clear trees, branches, bushes, or other wooden materials from their properties. This service is designed to save time, reduce effort, and provide versatile outcomes, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of needs. At Leicester Tree Services, we combine our expertise, modern equipment, and commitment to customer satisfaction to ensure every wood chipping project is completed efficiently and to the highest standards.
Wood chipping is at the heart of what we do, offering a fast and cost-effective way to handle wood waste. Whether you have felled a tree, pruned a hedge, or cleared a garden of bushes, dealing with the resulting debris can be a daunting task. Chopping wood into firewood, hauling it away, or finding a disposal site is time-consuming and physically demanding. Our wood chipping service eliminates these challenges by transforming trees and branches into small, manageable wood chips using powerful, state-of-the-art wood chippers. These machines quickly process all types of wood, from soft pine to tough oak, turning bulky materials into chips that are easy to handle. The process is simple: we feed the wood into the chipper, where sharp steel blades grind it into pieces typically ranging from 2 to 5 centimeters in length. The chips are then collected in a container, ready for use or removal based on your preference. This approach not only simplifies cleanup but also provides valuable wood chips that can serve multiple purposes.
One of the biggest advantages of wood chipping is its versatility. After processing, the wood chips can be used in several practical ways. Many of our customers choose to keep the chips to use as organic mulch in their gardens, flower beds, or play areas. Mulch is excellent for suppressing weeds, retaining soil moisture, and regulating soil temperature, which can save money on gardening costs. Wood chips also make an attractive and natural covering for pathways or small walkways, enhancing the look of outdoor spaces. In some cases, customers sell the chips to companies that produce biofuel or pressed wood products, turning waste into a potential source of income. Unlike burning, which was once a common way to dispose of branches but is now restricted due to environmental regulations, wood chipping is eco-friendly and sustainable. By choosing this service, you’re not only clearing your property efficiently but also contributing to a greener approach to wood disposal.
At Leicester Tree Services, we make the wood chipping process as seamless as possible for our clients. Every job begins with a clear understanding of the project’s scope. We offer two convenient ways to assess your needs. First, you can send us photos or videos of the trees, branches, or bushes you want processed. In many cases, this gives us enough information to provide an accurate quote. Alternatively, we offer a free, no-obligation on-site inspection, where our team visits your property to evaluate the job in person. During the inspection, we consider factors such as the volume of wood, the type of wood, and the accessibility of the site. Harder woods like oak or birch require more effort to process than softer woods like spruce or pine, and easy access for our equipment can make the job quicker and more affordable. Once we have all the details, we provide a detailed written quote that outlines the cost, timeline, and scope of the work. This transparency ensures you know exactly what to expect, with no hidden fees or surprises.
Once you approve the quote, we schedule the work at a time that suits you, typically starting within a few days. Our experienced team arrives with our modern wood chippers and all necessary equipment, ready to get the job done safely and efficiently. Safety is a top priority at Leicester Tree Services. Our staff are fully trained, certified, and insured, and we follow strict safety protocols to protect your property and everyone involved. The wood chipping process is fast, often completed in just a few hours, depending on the size of the job. After processing the wood, you can decide whether to keep the chips or have us remove them. If you choose to keep them, we can leave the chips neatly piled or spread them as mulch, depending on your needs. If you prefer removal, we take the chips away, leaving your property clean and tidy. Before we leave, we ensure the site is spotless, reflecting our commitment to professionalism and customer care.
