Wood chipper buying guide

Choose by the work you need to get done

Capacity matters, but it is not the only decision. Feed system, mobility and power source can make a bigger difference in day-to-day productivity.

Start with branch diameter

Buy for the largest material you process regularly—not the occasional oversized limb. More capacity usually means more weight, towing requirements and cost.

Match the feed system

Gravity and self-feed machines are simple and efficient for lighter duty. Hydraulic feed gives crews more control and throughput on larger, irregular branches.

Think about how it moves

Compact units are easier around properties. Tow-behind machines suit mobile crews. PTO models make sense when tractor power is already available.

Common questions

Before you choose a model

What size wood chipper do I need?

Use the diameter of the branches you handle regularly as the starting point. Leave some capacity margin if your material is often forked, crooked or hardwood.

Gravity feed or hydraulic feed?

Gravity/self-feed designs are simpler and work well for lower-volume property maintenance. Hydraulic feed is better suited to larger material and crews that need controlled, repeatable throughput.

Can I tow these chippers on the road?

Many tow-behind models are designed with road-towing hardware, but requirements vary by model and jurisdiction. Check the specific machine specifications and local towing rules before road use.

What if I am between two models?

Send us your typical branch diameter, material type, work volume and whether you need a towable or tractor-powered machine. We can help narrow the lineup before you order.
