Garden Shredders and Chippers
The garden should be a source of pride and an oasis of relaxation. It is also a piece of nature that needs to be cared for and managed effectively. This can be a fulfilling task for many amateur gardeners, when reliable tools are available to make gardening easier – such as a practical garden shredder.
Garden shredders are incredibly useful machines for several reasons: They tidy up waste such as lawn, tree and hedge cuttings, leaves and withered flowers. A shredder creates space and relieves you of bulky branches, bushy twigs and plant trimmings produced throughout each year. In the process, shredders significantly reduce the volume of the cuttings. These can then be more easily disposed of, or used as the basis for mulch or compost. In addition, a garden shredder provides valuable raw material.
The composted shredded material contains exactly the right balance of nutrients that your garden plants need in order to flourish. To aid this, the shredder’s blade systems shred the plant trimmings so finely that they quickly decompose to form high quality fertiliser.
When looking to purchase a shredder or tree mulcher, you need to know what you’re looking for. For each and every application, big/small, domestic/commercial, there are different sizes and capacities of machinery available.
Using the expertise of Rimrock’s team helps you find the right piece of equipment for the job you are intending to use it for, every time. In fact, we stock and service such a wide range of shredders and tree mulchers, that if we can’t find the right piece of equipment for you, it probably doesn’t exist.

Shredders convert large volumes of tree and shrub cuttings, as well as other plant trimmings, into fine shredded material. This can then be used as ground covering material or as compost to form fertiliser and humus. The shredded plant trimmings can be composted in a dedicated bin or composter and different types of material can also be mixed in. By shredding material first, the creation of compost is quickened as the material has already begun to be broken down before inclusion.
Hansa Chippers
Established in the 1980’s, Hansa Products are specialists in the design and manufacture of high quality chipping and shredding equipment. Hansa have been around long enough to say they know chippers – they’ve built and sold over 20,000 chippers after all.

Acreage Chippers by Hansa
Owner of acreages and smallholdings up to 20 hectares need chippers capable of handling a larger capacity and volume. With a maximum capacity of 70 to 130mm the acreage range include road tow-able or tractor mounted options to suit a wide range of applications. A Hansa chipper will chip/shred any branches (green or dry), along with other general garden prunings such as hedge material, vines and flower stalks. With its efficient self-feeding action, the lifestyle chipper range are our most user-friendly chippers. Thanks to the higher outlets, your mulch can be discharged directly onto a trailer, ute or wheelbarrow, eliminating the need for double-handling.
Commercial Chippers by Hansa
For arborists chippers need to be powerful and versatile to adapt to whatever job is on hand. Hansa’s commercial chippers are compact and transportable into awkward job sites but powerful to chip up to a max of 150 to 254mm capacity.
