yes, sellin arb waste as logs,why wouldnt you?

 

Because its very labour intensive and does not pay as well as tree work.

 

Also retail is often a nightmare, Joe public can be a real pain, IME.

 

I wholesale mine to guys for whom fire wood is their main business, they are far better set up and prepared to do firewood to the public, IMO :001_smile:

I exchange my timber for free rent on a farm where I keep my kit so works well for me, I agree with Huck as it is so labour intensive and money is easier made doing tree works

 

Depends how much your rent is and how much timber you produce, I get far more for my timber than I pay rent for my yard.
