How much do you pay for your stove wood?

[BowlandStoves]

I would be interested to see how much people pay for their wood in different areas of the country and different scenarios. I know some people will pay zero for their wood

A bottle of wine for a small delivery, 2 for a larger delivery - that is for arisings so any wood that he has left from a job that he does not want for himself (and assuming he is passing my place anyway).

Zero here but .......My stack won't last for ever now I am retired from cutting . Its gonna hurt when I have to pay for it ! ☹️

Zero, apart from need a new shed as run out of space, old silage pit full

Nowt here, doubt many on here do buy logs

How do the log supplers make a living? We all pay nothing! (same here).

 

I guess I would have to compare wood price vs smokless fuel price (£25 a week in the winter) - but I have no idea how much wood I would use if I just burnt wood in the middle of winter, my coal man does logs for £85 for a bulk bag (Glasgow area)

Yes I will just rely on gas if I cannot manage to cut and split enough in my dotage, it's uneconomic for me to buy logs at local prices.

I drive a lorry  ( part time ) doing palletised deliveries ...today I delivered 2 dumpy bags of nice logs in cornwall and customer told me they were £105 each ( del inc )   cheaper than local ..........they were from the lake district !!!!

I'm not that far North of Surrey so there is hope if you are happy with arisings...

I buy hardwood from a local estate for £30 a ton, they load for me and off I go. Have to split and stack myself obviously.
