Birch logs

[ChasW]

Hi all...looking for a bit of advice please. I have approx 30m3 of silver birch from a clearfell I did this winter..I think I'm going to sell it to a log man, but I have no idea how much it's worth. Had a quick google and people seem to be paying 80-100 quid per cube...is that realistic? I might have to go into log production if it is! Cheers.

£80 to £100 is seasoned firewood price.

So you have to cut it to length, split it, season it and deliver it.

Hi, I take it the 80-100 quid is for cut split seasoned logs ready to burn ? Roadside price from £37-47 per tonne depending on quality .

thanks...I can't be doing with all that, £50 to the log man?

I would say £30 max for processor grade delivered

Less for oversized

That won't leave much meat on the bone for the log man.

£30 a tonne delivered for processor sized logs ,em, I was getting £35 a tonne for larch at roadside 2 yr ago ,£30 a tonne delivered I think you better get me a couple hundred tonne please.

AND WHAT ? £30 a cube or tonne is very very cheap to hardwood delivered in we currently getting £32.50 for softwood chip roadside.!

 

What's the difference on a MTR cube & a tonne of same said birch ?
