Woodland Mills Woodchippers

Every Woodland Mills woodchipper model, ranked and reviewed — with the clear verdict on which one to actually buy.

By Chip It Right editorial

Woodland Mills is a PTO-focused Canadian brand with a devoted compact-tractor following. The lineup is smaller than Woodmaxx (three PTO models) but each is well-targeted: the WC46 for subcompact tractors, the WC68 for 30–40 HP compact tractors (their most popular model), and the WC88 for mid-frame tractors needing hydraulic-feed 8-inch capacity.

Woodland Mills earns a reputation on two things: flywheel mass (heavy for the category) and a 5-year warranty on all three chippers.

Why Woodland Mills is strong for compact tractors

The WC46 and WC68 are sized specifically for 15–65 HP compact and subcompact tractors — a zone where Woodmaxx’s MX-Series pushes higher HP ranges and MechMaxx doesn’t compete with a PTO option. The WC68’s heavy flywheel also means sustained chipping speed on hardwood, which matters more than engine HP once you’re past the minimum threshold.

Woodland Mills vs Woodmaxx for 30 HP tractors

At 30 HP, three chippers deserve a look: Woodland Mills WC68 (no hydraulic feed, $2,999), Woodmaxx MX-8600 (no hydraulic feed, $3,195), and Woodmaxx WM-8H (hydraulic feed, $4,795).

The WC68 wins on price and simplicity. The MX-8600 wins on warranty (7 years versus 5). The WM-8H wins on capability if you chip forked or crooked wood — hydraulic feed is a meaningful upgrade, not just marketing.

FAQ04 questions

Frequently asked questions

01
Is Woodland Mills a good brand?
Yes — Woodland Mills is widely regarded as one of the top PTO woodchipper brands for compact tractors. The 5-year warranty on all three chippers (WC46, WC68, WC88) is longer than the WM-Series Woodmaxx warranty, though shorter than the 7-year MX-Series.
02
What's the best Woodland Mills woodchipper?
The WC68 is the brand's flagship and the most-recommended model for 30–40 HP compact tractors. It's the single most-recommended chipper in that tractor class from any brand.
03
Is Woodland Mills made in the USA?
Woodland Mills is a Canadian company headquartered in Ontario. Their woodchippers are assembled in Asia with quality control and distribution out of their Canadian facility.
04
Woodland Mills WC68 vs WC88 — which should I buy?
Buy the WC68 if your tractor is under 40 HP or if your material is mostly straight and under 6 inches. Buy the WC88 only if you need hydraulic feed (forked/crooked material) or 8-inch capacity. The WC88 is $2,000 more — a meaningful jump only justified by specific needs.
