Mulching and biomass recycling means the branches, foliage and stump material from a job are turned into usable mulch instead of being sent to landfill. On a Sydney job, that starts with wood chipping on site, where the crew feeds limbs and trunk sections through a chipper as the tree comes down.
The chipped material is then screened to remove contaminants and keep the texture consistent. Foliage and fine organic matter can be composted, and stumps that are ground down add more wood chip to the pile. The result is recycled biomass that can go back into garden beds, landscaping and nurseries.
For the property owner, this is part of the same job as garden waste removal. The green waste is dealt with as part of the tree removal service, and the site is left tidy with full site clean-up included.
It suits Sydney gardens well, too. Mulch made from local tree material helps soil hold moisture, suppresses weeds and protects beds during heavy rain, so the material from a removed tree can keep working on the same property.
