Free wood chips for you

Hey y'all,

I once got a load from chipdrop.com and it cost me about $40 to entice someone enough to drive out where I am. That was 3 years ago... and not another once since.

Duke energy, my electric company, just left us a notice that they will be trimming trees in my area... the name of the company and a contact was on the door hanger.

I called immediately, talked to a nice lady named Carol... she hadn't even left my driveway yet lol! I let her know that I would be delighted to get some wood chips on my property and she seemed thrilled that her guys would have a place to drop that is near the work being done.

Now... I may regret this. I don't know. Maybe I'll get some undesireable types of wood. Maybe there will be poison ivy that was wrapped around some trees... I don't know. I'm hoping that doesn't happen since they are trimming branches.

Comment below: have you tried calling local tree trimmers or your electric company to offer your property as a convenient way for them to drop some wood chips? Did I just unknowingly hurt myself? Inquiring minds want to know!
