Who is Chipper Chuck?


Chipper Chuck maintains a highly reliable, industrial grade brush and tree chipping service.  Chipper Chuck's equipment allows for the reduction of wood, bark, brush, and tree up to 12" in diameter, producing safe and extremely useable mulch. In preperation to your chipping experience do not cut the branches into small pieces. The chipper has an extra wide chute and is capable of doing very large branches. If you cut them too small it takes much longer to feed the material into the chipper increasing your cost to do the chipping project. 

Chipper Chuck's equipment includes a NEW 100 hp turbo Diesel powered industrial chipper that features a water injected output system that reduces dust and is capable of dropping the chippings right next to the chipping location or hurling the 1" to 2" wood chips up to 75 feet away.  Thus brush and wood can be reduced to piles or spread about to vanish into the ecology. We can remove the chips and take them with us for an extra charge. We take them to a disposal site and pay a fee so the cost is based on the amount of cubic yards of chips and unloading of the chips.

Your typical rent-a-chipper will take six to eight hours to do a job that Chipper Chuck can perform in one to two hours. Sometimes the rent-a-chipper is not at all capable of doing the job required. We will also rent you the use of our chipper and you do all the work for a greatly reduced price. Chipper Chuck will deliver and operate the chipper and be the safety man.

Chipper Chuck works by the hour.  You may elect the one hour or two hour minimum and therefore keep within your budget and also get an idea of how long the complete job may take. Chipper Chuck will also help and advise you on care and maintenance of your equipment and possibly help you start your chainsaw or other equipment if at all possible. 

Chipper chuck will chip small brush piles to the giant sized piles created by lot clearing, as well as section up fallen trees into fireplace size lengths.  We prefer not to do piles that have been bulldozed unless you pull them apart as they are very time consuming to do. We will do them but they take alot of time. Splitting is also available. Low risk tree felling may be quoted as well as long as the trees are at no risk of damaging structures or impacting power, phone, or water lines. We do not climb trees at all. We recommend tree climber Kurt Dickson to do this. His number is 530-622-7312 (Placerville) Kurt is very competitive and probably one of the less expensive tree workers in the area.

For dense residential areas, Chipper Chuck fields a leaf blower to ensure  your driveway or street front is clear of all chipping sawdust or debris.

Chipper Chuck has been in business for 1 year, and is more than happy to provide references to his many happy customers.
