Choosing the Right Garden Shredder or Chipper

Garden shredders and chippers are designed to reduce waste, save trips to the tip, and help turn garden cuttings into usable mulch or compost material. Whether you’re clearing seasonal trimmings or tackling tougher branches, there’s a machine to match.

Electric vs Petrol Models

  • Electric shredders are ideal for home gardens — compact, quieter and easy to run off mains power. Best for soft clippings and smaller branches.
  • Petrol chippers deliver higher throughput and can handle thicker, woody material. Suited to larger properties and commercial grounds work.

Who Buys These Machines?

Electric shredders are popular with regular gardeners who want to manage hedge cuttings, leaves and soft stems without clogging up the compost heap. Petrol chippers tend to be bought by landscapers, tree surgeons, and rural users needing to deal with heavier loads on-site.
