Request Wood Chips
Give locally generated wood chips a second life in your landscape. Canopy Solutions periodically delivers fresh arborist wood chips generated during our professional tree-care operations to properties located near our scheduled work.
Three Simple Steps
Requesting chips is easy, but delivery depends on where our tree crews are working and whether your property can safely accommodate our truck.
Join the Queue
Submit your contact information, address, dump location, and access details.
We Work Nearby
When our crews generate chips near your property, we review nearby requests and available truck access.
Take the Load
If your property is selected, we deliver the entire available load to the approved dump location.
Be Ready for a Full Truckload
Wood chips are delivered by the truckload—not by the yard.
You must have enough space and a use for the entire load. We cannot deliver a partial load or take excess material back after dumping.

What are arborist wood chips?
These are fresh chips produced directly from professional tree-care work. They are not processed or manufactured landscape mulch.
What You May Receive
✓ One or multiple tree species
✓ Wood and bark
✓ Leaves or evergreen needles
✓ Small twigs
✓ Different chip sizes
✓ Fresh material with varying moisture
What This Is Not
× Decorative bark
× Bagged landscape mulch
× Uniformly screened material
× Guaranteed species
× Guaranteed color or chip size
Can our truck safely access your property?
Our chip truck is a large, heavy commercial vehicle and requires substantial overhead clearance when the dump body is raised.
Overhead Clearance
Check for utility lines, communication lines, tree branches, roof overhangs, and structures.
Driveway & Surface
Consider whether pavement, gravel, lawn, or other surfaces can support a loaded commercial truck.
Room to Maneuver
The truck needs room to enter, position itself, raise the dump body, unload, and safely exit.
Underground Concerns
Tell us about septic systems, drain fields, irrigation, utilities, vaults, or soft ground.
Nearby Property
Consider curbs, retaining walls, fences, gates, buildings, vehicles, and neighboring property.
Driver Has Final Say
Our driver may decline or modify a delivery if access or dumping conditions are unsafe.
Why use wood chips around PNW trees?
Arborist wood chips can be an excellent mulch for trees and landscape beds, especially during our increasingly dry Pacific Northwest summers.
Conserves Moisture
Helps reduce evaporation and retain soil moisture during dry weather.
Moderates Soil Temperature
Insulates the soil surface and reduces rapid temperature changes around roots.
Supports Soil Health
Organic material gradually returns to the soil as the chips decompose.
Suppresses Competition
Proper mulch depth helps reduce grasses and weeds competing with tree roots.
Protects Trees
Mulched areas help keep mowers and string trimmers away from trunks and surface roots.
Recycles Local Material
Tree material generated locally can be returned directly to local landscapes.
How should I mulch around my trees?
✓ GOOD: Wide & Shallow
Spread wood chips approximately 2–4 inches deep over as much of the root zone as practical.
Keep the trunk and root flare visible.
× AVOID: The “Mulch Volcano”
Do not pile wood chips deeply against the trunk or bury the root flare.
More mulch is not necessarily better.
