What to know locally in Worcester

A towable chipper handles orchard prunings well, and the chips can go back as mulch between rows. Contractors working out at De Doorns and Wolseley should plan for the heat: start early, carry water, and never work alone with a chainsaw.
What grows around Worcester
Worcester lies in the Breede Valley, ringed by mountains and surrounded by vineyards, fruit orchards and table grape farms reaching towards De Doorns, Rawsonville and Robertson. Summers are hot and dry, and winters are cold, with frost on the valley floor and snow on the peaks in some years. Trees in town include old pepper trees, oaks, jacarandas, gums and planes, many planted long ago and now large. On farms, the work is orchard removal before replanting, gum and poplar windbreaks, and clearing invasive trees along the Breede and Hex rivers. Farmers, packhouses and municipal sites are big clients alongside homeowners. Check the alien listing for gums and poplars, and leave street trees to the municipality.
Typical wood chipper hire requests in the area come from:
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: clearing wattle and windbreak branches into chips over a long weekend
- Homeowners: chipping a big pile of prunings after the jacaranda or plane tree is cut back
- Businesses and commercial property: chipping on site after trees on an office park or parking lot are pruned
