What to look for in second-hand wood chippers
Feed mechanism and blades: Feed rollers with no broken teeth; blades sharp and without chips; counter-blade not worn out. The blades are wear parts; ask when they were last sharpened and whether replacement blades are included.
No-Stress Automatic: The feed control stops the rollers when the engine speed drops and restarts them as soon as the engine recovers. Check that it switches cleanly – without it, a thick log will stall the engine.
Engine and operating hours: Cold start, smoke pattern, oil pressure. Trailer-mounted chippers in this class usually have diesel engines with approx. 25 to 50 PS. Read the operating hours from the counter and check them against the service log.
Disc or drum chippers: Disc chippers produce uniform wood chips and cope well with logs. Drum chippers are better at feeding in bulky branches. Check the bearings of the disc or drum for play and unusual noises.
Chassis and registration: Check the axle, brakes, lights and tow bar; ensure all documents are in order. Trailer-mounted chippers are usually approved for 80 km/h; approval for 100 km/h requires suitable equipment and registration.
Discharge: Rotating discharge chute with a flap; sufficient discharge height to fill a tipper or container directly.

Frequently asked questions about used wood chippers
How much does a second-hand wood chipper cost?
Older trailer-mounted chippers are available from around €2,750, whilst well-maintained machines with a feed opening of 15 to 25 cm range from around €7,000 to €13,750. Factors affecting the price include feed diameter, year of manufacture, operating hours and the condition of the blades.
What feed diameter is sufficient?
For hedge trimming and fruit tree maintenance, 15 cm is sufficient. Anyone felling trees or maintaining municipal land should aim for 20 to 25 cm to ensure that trunks do not need to be pre-chipped.
Can I tow a trailer-mounted shredder with a car?
Yes, provided the towing capacity and driving licence category are suitable. Many trailer-mounted shredders weigh over 750 kg and are fitted with brakes; check the gross weight and drawbar load in the documentation against the specifications of your towing vehicle.
How many operating hours are acceptable?
That depends on the engine. More important than the number are documented oil changes, smooth engine running under load, leak-free hydraulics and bearings on the disc or drum with no play.
How does the purchase process work with an importer?
You make enquiries directly via the advert and clarify the condition, documentation and transport with the dealer. An on-site inspection is possible. The purchase and payment are handled directly between you and the seller.
