Wood chips will soon be available for free on a trial basis at two designated grass collection sites in Bismarck. The two locations will be at Santa Fe Ave & 12th St (Cottonwood Park parking lot), and at the Ash Coulee Water Tower.
The Forestry Division will dump wood chips produced by tree work they perform at these two locations for use by local homeowners. Piles will be replenished as work load and work location allows. These wood chips are not for commercial use, commercial contractors can pick up free single grind woodchips from the landfill. Bismarck residents also have the option to pick up free single grind wood chips at the landfill. Please bring a shovel to load your own wood chips.
As a reminder, tree branches and twigs are still not accepted at grass collection sites and should be disposed of at the landfill.
