From June 2-6, 2025, the Summit County chipping program will be in Frisco. Each year, this program helps community members and property owners create defensible space by providing free chipping and disposal for conifer and aspen branches, logs and small trees. If you clear this woody vegetation from around your home and stack it in a pile, Summit County will chip it and haul it away for free.
Materials Guidelines
Accepted materials include trees, logs, and branches up to 12 inches in diameter, free of nails and wire.
Restrictions
- No willows: Willows have high moisture content, so they help to slow the spread of fire. They also clog chipping equipment because they are very fibrous.
- No construction or building materials, treated lumber, fence posts or signs.
- No rotten wood, root wads, stumps, dirt, rocks, or shrubs: These items clog and damage chipping equipment.
- No grass clippings, trash, weeds or bags of leaves.
