Forestry & Winter

Forestry and winter outdoor power equipment, in one place — chainsaws for downed limbs, log splitters for next year's firewood, wood chippers for the brush pile, and snow blowers for the first cold snap. Whether you're prepping a half-cord of seasoned oak or clearing a driveway at 6 a.m., this collection puts the cold-weather tools serious homeowners actually use within easy reach.

Shop gas chainsaws from BILT HARD in 18" (46cc) and 22" (56cc) bar lengths for limbing and bucking, plus a 20V cordless and a 15A corded option for quick yard work. Splitters span 6.5-ton electric hydraulic models perfect for a backyard cord up to 40-ton LOG-X gas beasts that chew through 24" hardwood rounds without flinching. Wood chippers run from a 15A corded mulcher with a collection bin all the way up to a 224cc BILT HARD gas chipper with a tow hitch. And for the snowy season, our cordless and gas snow blowers cover 18" to 26" clearing widths.

Build out a single-platform kit on our same-brand systems with our chainsaws & log splitters, wood chippers, and snow blowers — and round out the lighter-duty side with our leaf blowers & trimmers. Before you fire anything up, the OSHA chainsaw safety reference is the single best 10-minute read in this category, and the USDA Forest Service's private-land forest management page is worth a skim if you're managing your own woodlot.

Cut, split, chip, clear — then warm up by the fire. Explore the full forestry and winter collection and get ready before the season catches you off guard.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Forestry & Winter category cover?
Everything you'd reach for between fall cleanup and the spring thaw: chainsaws for limbing and bucking downed trees, log splitters (6.5-ton up to 40-ton) for firewood, wood chippers for the brush pile, snow blowers in single-stage and two-stage configurations, plus replacement gas engines (79cc–420cc) to swap into existing equipment. Brands include BILT HARD, PowerSmart, and LOG-X Series.
What log splitter tonnage do I need for my firewood?
Tonnage tracks log diameter and wood hardness. 6.5–7 ton electric splitters handle softwood and seasoned hardwood up to about 10". 20–25 ton gas splitters comfortably handle 16"–20" rounds of oak, maple, and other hardwoods. 30–40 ton models are the right call for green hardwood, knotty rounds over 20", and anyone splitting more than a cord per year. Browse our full chainsaws & log splitters lineup to compare.
Which chainsaw should I pick — gas, cordless, or corded?
Gas chainsaws (18" 46cc, 22" 56cc) deliver the most cutting power and unlimited runtime — best for storm cleanup, felling, and bucking firewood. Cordless 20V is great for light pruning and limbing close to the house with no fuel and instant start. Corded 15A 18" saws are an inexpensive midweight option for backyard cutting where an outlet is reachable. Match bar length to the biggest log diameter you'll cut routinely.
Do I need a wood chipper if I already have a chainsaw?
Yes, if you produce a meaningful amount of brush. A chainsaw breaks down logs; a wood chipper turns small branches, limbs, and yard waste into mulch you can use on beds and around trees — so you're not paying for curbside pickup or burning a brush pile. Our 224cc gas chippers handle limbs up to about 3", and the electric mulchers are great for an afternoon's worth of yard cleanup. See the full wood chippers lineup.
Are these tools rated for residential or commercial use?
This collection is built around heavy residential and prosumer use. The BILT HARD 6.5-ton electric splitters and 224cc chippers are sized for a homeowner who runs them a weekend at a time, while the LOG-X 30- and 40-ton gas splitters and 56cc chainsaws can absolutely handle small-property forestry, woodlot management, and side-gig firewood production. None of these are sized for full-day commercial-yard duty cycles.
