How much is it worth

[Charleton Chips]

Hi 

 

I was wondering how much is slab wood worth or how much should we paying for bundles of slab wood 

 

because the local sawmill maybe looking for a buyer but don’t no how much we should be paying for it

More than wood chip but it depends on species and size quality etc.

We used to get £15/t (last year) at the sawmill near Edinburgh for any biomass loaded into a large skip. So this included slabwood, sawdust and bark. They just chucked it all through a shredder. 

 

Pure slabwood would be more though.

It’s mixed species and all different lengths 

 

we used thinking about chipping it and using for biomass 

[Rough Hewn]

Biomass £10-20 a ton
cord roadside £50 a ton
Logs split, dried and delivered £100 a m3
Hardwood slabs £500-2000 m3
I'll let you do the maths.
