Running a morbark 17 with my residential tree biz. Making probably 20 to 25 cu yard of chips a day and looking to expand into turning my waste into profit, anyone else turn their chips into mulch?
I have people ask all the time if they can use our wood chips for mulch and I always make it a point to mention that the chips are going to turn colors very rapidly. Most people don't mind. But occasionally someone does want that dyed uniform look and we send them to Lowes.FWIW I was told that chips had to be hardwood and died a uniform color to be marketable - that was the Cleveland area.

I've talked with a few guys making lots of chips about the possibility of hauling to a gravel pit to add to topsoil. It's going to take a lot on Nitrogen and probably lime to get chips broken down.
There is no end to the financial opportunities with wood and wood by products. One could easily make millions.Marketing 102, fill a customers need.
Compact and sell as burnable 'logs'.
If I wanted to sell firewood I wouldn't have fed it to my morbark 17, but time is money and the morbark is way faster than the bandit 90Marketing 102, fill a customers need.
