Can anyone advise me on the day rate for a wood chipper I’ve a fair few piles of brash kicking about and this weather is starting to royally pee me off. So the chances of fire are slim to bloody none,

Whether I can hire one for the day or get a tree boy in but the prices are so varied and not really looking for the cheapest of them about as the danger is they may well be travelers.
 
These things can eat a lot of timber in an hour, but you need help to get the value out of it. A couple of men and a loader and grab to set the stuff forward and you'll be surprised how fast you can get it done = less hire time.

All the woods laid out in piles, I can’t gauge how long it would take a machine to chew through it I’m thinking a road tow one, one with the feeding and another with a saw laying out material Incase it’s abit too broad.
