One product that's being sold from the chips of wooden pallets is a bedding for animals, said .Sitter. Board member Lynda •„ Rotteau from the Town of Goderich, asked if S.E.L. would Charge for their services based on the tonne. The charge would likely be $20-25 per tonne of wood, said Sider but they would likely wait until about 200 tonnes of wood had accumulated at the landfill site before coming to do the chipping.
