Area D Properties - Please bring your wood debris to the end of your driveway by 9:00 am on Monday, May 25, 2026.

The SRD encourages you to FireSmart your property by bringing your wood debris to the end of your driveway by 9:00 am on Monday May 25th, 2026. Chipping trucks will be in Area D starting May 25th until all piles have been serviced.

Want to keep your wood chips?

Tie a piece of flagging tape on your wood debris pile, and the chipper will create a pile on the ground for you.  Note: this method may require you to do some clean-up/raking.  All other woodchips will be placed at Maple Park (29 Anton Rd).  Community members can take the wood chips on a first-come basis.

No registration is required. Let us know if your driveway is hard to locate.

Conditions

  • No rocks, no nails, no roots.
  • All "butt ends" of branches are pointed the same way so they can be fed efficiently into the chipper.
  • Tree trimmings must be under 16 cms in diameter and 10 m length max.
  • No invasive species such as Scotch Broom, English Holly, Giant Hogweed, and Knotweed.
  • The contractor reserves the right not to pick up any piles that they feel do not meet these rules.
  • Do not block traffic by piling debris on the road.
  • Any debris brought to the end of driveways after 9:00 am on Monday May 25th, may not be picked up.
