woodchipping

Had a phone call of this company asking wat i do with woodchippings

Ahs emergy

And? They buy woodchip off tree surgeons, and turn it into bio fuel. You don't get a lot for it but you do get something for what could otherwise be described as waste.

The BIG problem is you have to load their lorry.

 

So by the time you have paid to hired a telly handler, paid a guy to be there when they come and then they come late, you tend to make very little or nowt.

will they take conifer chippings

 

Yes........

We sell all of our chippings, we get a lot better return for small loads to landscapers etc but we produce far more than we sell to, or want to sell to these customers.

Thats where AHS are useful, they send in a walking floor, at an agreed date / time and you load them up, (you will need a telehandler though as Huck says) they then pay you on a self billing invoice within a week.

We then get a chunk of our yard back to start over again.1

They'll take any sort of chippings, but it can't be contaminated with logs, stones, or brash etc, just chippings.
