Fresh wood shavings make wonderful animal bedding material. You could
offer the shavings in bulk to folks who have hamsters, gerbils, and
other rodent pets.

We use the shavings as animal bedding.  The larger wood pieces can be
used for heating as long as it is untreated stock.

They may be used as mulch in the garden, if you allow them to age a little.

My Answer: 

Here is some information related to your querry.

There are a quite few good PDF documnets available at this link:
://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&q=Usage+of+Woodwaste&meta=

The United States is a country with a vast forest resource, comprising
about one-third of its total land area (or about 3 million square
kilometers). As a result, wood is an important renewable resource and
is widely used in many applications! including building construction,
furniture, fuelwood, textile fabrics, organic chemicals, and paper
manufacture. This wide usage generates a large volume of wood waste.
Currently, nearly 63 million metric tons of this material is generated
in the manufacture, use, and disposal of solid wood products each
year. This paper describes the types and amounts of waste wood
generated in 2002, recycling efforts in the United States, and the
reuse of lumber salvaged from building removal.
