Please note that some areas will have two Chipping Days this year.

Woodside Fire Protection District (WFPD) is continuing its neighborhood Chipper Program in conjunction with the Town of Woodside and the Town of Portola Valley.

The Chipper Program is a fuel reduction program to help decrease our community s threat from wildfire. With a grant from the Fireman s Fund, WFPD purchased a wood chipper, which will be used to chip vegetation removed by homeowners. The chipper will enable the Fire District to easily dispose of large amounts of fuel.

The chipping will be conducted thru San Mateo County Fire Safe & CDC inmate crews, all the Fire District asks is that you bring all the materials you would like chipped to the roadside on your designated neighborhood day and we will take care of the rest.

This service is provided at no charge, but there are some restrictions. The chipper cannot chip Eucalyptus bark or poison oak. Materials cannot contain nails or screws, as it can damage the chipper and any personnel operating it. Fuels such as brush, and tree limbs are accepted, and branches with diameters up to 8" are acceptable. Branches need to be stacked in a neat pile with all of the cut ends facing the road. Piles are limited to 10' wide x 10' long. Brush will be chipped back on site with exception of certain areas.

For questions, call 650.851.1594, or email us.
