Thanks Boa. That is great information on wood chip storage. I never get my piles much over 12ft. high and I've never had a fire......but I see it is a great concern. I had heard years ago that if piles don't get over 25ft. high they are usually safe. There was a large fire in Delaware USA some years ago at a mulch processing plant where huge piles of mulch burst into flames.
