Having grubbed out my hedge, I now have a huge pile of branches to deal with, probably about 3 skip loads.
Next problem is how to dispose of them.
Options include:
o Big bonfire. Pros- cheap. Cons - no good site handy for a bonfire.
o Skips. Pros - easy. Cons - expensive.
o Hire a chipper (& operator) and disposal of chips in garden. Pros - plenty of space to use the chippings. Cons - man came out today and did that sucking through the teeth bit and said that the bushieness & density of the hedge would probably choke his machine.
o Buy a garden shredder and shred what we can. Pros - relatively cheap and I end up with a shredder at the end of it. Cons - won't handle the thicker/bushier stuff and I might end up with a *broken* shredder at the end of it.
Any other suggestions? Would something like this
