Can Bamboo chips be tilled into my soil?

last month

Good morning, I need the help of professionals, please.

We live in Florida with no topsoil, only sand. Hurricane Milton damaged our bamboo trees, requiring us to trim and remove piles of bamboo. What a messy job.

Is it possible to run the cut bamboo through a chipper and then till the chips into the sandy soil? Would this cause unwanted bamboo to spread throughout our yard? The bamboo is up to 6 inches in diameter and as long as 75 feet, so taking it out in dumpsters would be expensive and time-consuming because the length would need to be trimmed several times.

This is "way beyond my pay grade" and would appreciate direction from people who know,

Thank you.
